Due to the strict requirements for automotive light aesthetics, the design and production of automotive light molds require meticulous attention to detail. The headlights themselves are the most demanding elements in automotive aesthetics. Lighting configurations vary for different car series, and even within the same series, there are variations based on high-level configurations. Key components of automotive front and rear lights include left and right lenses, decorative frames, lampshades, reflectors, and more. Contact us to learn more about automotive light molds.

5 design gems on the new Renault 5 The first storied design to channel the seventies? The first French design to take the fight to British and Italian small premium cars? Full of lovely design gems this one. Unequivocally the star of the 2024 Geneva Auto Show, the Renault 5 steps from Michel Boué’s original 1972 Mk1, and the 1984 Mk2 designed by Marcello Gandini (with nods to the Turbo too) as a uniquely French small storied car design alternative to the established British Mini and Italian Fiat 500 - both designs that reference their fifties originals whilst the Renault logically brings retro references to the seventies. Now a pure EV, the design is full of big and small references to its forebears — more so maybe than any other ‘retro’ design perhaps — mostly evident in its exterior graphics, with core proportions and even form owing more to contemporary European automotive design. Great to see this design realised — in one form or another it must have on most of Renault designers sketchpads for the past 20 years — some of the choicest design details (several classic 5 signatures) we detail in this short article: https://lnkd.in/eUDAjvFX

I designed a unique watch in SolidWorks, featuring a bracelet from which the watch face emerges when a side button is pressed. This mechanism utilizes a spring function, allowing the watch to open and close smoothly with a simple click. The design integrates a vintage feel, achieved through a carefully selected color palette and classic aesthetics. The combination of modern functionality with retro styling creates a timeless piece. The watch not only offers convenience but also stands out as a stylish accessory. Its innovative mechanism and nostalgic appeal make it a perfect blend of form and function. This design is a testament to the seamless integration of engineering and artistry. #SolidWorksDesign #InnovativeWatch #SpringMechanism #VintageAesthetics #ProductDesign #EngineeringArt #WatchDesign #TimelessStyle #ModernFunctionality #CreativeEngineering

🌟 New design highlight: Caddy “Edition” 🌟 🕺 The Caddy models for the 2025 model year will go on sale at the end of May, including the #CaddyEdition. With a high-contrast black painted roof, striking logo and many design elements, the series presents itself in its most striking form. 💬 “As an “Edition”, the Caddy gains in style and expressiveness,” says Albert Kirzinger, Head of Design at #VWCV. “It makes a clear design statement to people who value appearance and looks as much as pure function with its generous space.” 💬 And Stefanie Hegels, CEO of Volkswagen Poznań, explains: “The Caddy from Poznań has been a genuine success story since 2003, and this will be continued with the start of production of the new variants. With even more assist systems and the adapted engine and gearbox combinations, the model year 2025 offers a host of new features. The Caddy Edition in particular – which is now being ramped up in our production – is naturally a real eye-catcher.” 🚘 The model is available as a normal and long version (Maxi) as well as a cargo and a van in the passenger car version with optional panoramic glass roof. Ideal for craftsmen, delivery services and tradespeople as well as families with children, pets and big hobbies. A vehicle that is as functional as it is stylish! #WeTransportSuccessFreedomFuture #VWCaddy

The Color of the Future: The Rise of White in Automotive Design Go Mango, Plum Crazy, Mimosa Yellow, Purple Fiction, Green Hell - these are just a few examples of creative colour code names for past or present car models. But looking on the roads, one must wonder: where did all these colours go? White, a color with a long history in cars, has become the most popular car color in the world. Today, more than 30% of all cars globally are white. But why is white so popular? Simply put, it embodies a blend of modernity, elegance, and a futuristic appeal, all while remaining timeless. And for the more pragmatic approach; it's high resale value. The adoption of white in car design is not merely a matter of aesthetic preference, but a reflection of the evolving relationship between technology and style. Ever since Apple came out with white products, the color white has become emblematic of a futuristic and technologically advanced aesthetic. And as cars became more tech-filled, white seemed to be a good match. Also, white isn't just white. It comes in many shades with different finishes and shades, from glossy to matte and from plain to metallic. Names such as Polar White, Snow White, Arctic White, Alpine White, Biarriz White, Diamond White, Rhodium White and many others are trying to describe the subtle differences in appearance. The debate on white cars is controversal though. Some say white conceal a car's shape, while others view it as a symbol of elegance and purity. What's your opinion on white cars? Do they diminish design or represent sophistication? Swipe through some iconic examples and feel free to suggest any other cars you think might complement this list. ◾️ 𝘧𝑢𝘯 𝘧𝑎𝘤𝑡: You probably heard Henry Ford's most famous quote about his offering of car colours, but did you also know that painters in his factory worked naked to avoid dust contamination? Glad, we found better solutions to this problem. ◽️ 𝘮𝑜𝘳𝑒 𝘧𝑢𝘯 𝘧𝑎𝘤𝑡: First metallic paints did not use metal flakes but fish scales for the sparkling effect.

Small-scale clay prototypes are usually a comparatively simple matter of creating a basic shape with foam, covering it in clay, and then meticulously building onto and carving the mold until the job is done. Once the look (based on the designers' preliminary sketches) is narrowed down, it's time to make the bigger version. Full-scale clay models operate on a very similar principle but are bigger and more complex. Typically, a rough interior frame or skeleton is built using metal and then filled out with foam, after which a layer made up of several inches of clay is applied to the outside. After that, sculptors and designers pore over the exterior and begin making a multitude of changes — some significant, some almost imperceptible — until everything looks the way they want it to. Then they meticulously inspect it even more, make mode changes, and so on until the model is eventually considered finished. It's really interesting to read about the clay models, read more about it here - https://lnkd.in/efa5cCGw #automotiveindustry #cars #mercedesbenz #miltonkeynesbusiness
