Stampida — Exterior Surface & Decoration

Designing surfaces with decoration in mind

01Overview

For a project developed with Stampida Group, we designed the exterior surfaces of a complete vehicle with a very specific goal: to create a platform that showcases the possibilities of decoration and hot stamping applied to a car's exterior.

The idea was that decoration should not be added on top of the body, but form part of the very conception of the surface. We worked on a clean, sculptural exterior architecture, using volumes, character lines and transitions as opportunities to explore different finishes and applications that follow the three-dimensional forms of the body.
