About Competition



The company Maier S. Coop. announces the 8th Maier S. Coop International Design Competition, focusing on Automotive Vehicle Design, from both the standpoint of Style and Colour & Trim.

The competition is themed: Visions 2025+. Participants are invited to show their vision of how light will change the way we see cars beyond 2025.

The aim of the contest is to show the integration of light on Colour & Trim design (new aesthetics, finish, materials) and Design/ Styling (new concepts, products) linked to new functionalities and see how they will affect the following specific environments of the vehicle:

• Exterior front module (front grille, trims, etc.)
• Exterior upper side (B/C pillars, etc.)
Take into account subjects as Materials, Colour, Interaction with the Environment, Use, Semantics… etc.

Today we are attending to some crucial changes around the car pushed by environmental issues, social trends and new uses.

In the next ten years electric drive trains will make possible a more dramatic change on the proportions of the entire vehicle than the combined changes from the past 30 years.

Besides, every single area will be rethought with new functionalities linked to advances in aerodynamics, electronics, charging or lighting.

In a scenario where cars will be designed to look nice and to be more functional, light will have a key role, expanding to areas that until now were just conceived by style criteria.

How light will influence both Style and Colour & Trim of the 2025+ car?


Projects must be comprised of the following four deliverables:

• Moodboard (Inspiration Panel)

The Moodboard or Inspiration Panel is the deliverable that graphically represents a study of the conceptual line of Colour & Trim, indicating the direction of vehicle exterior aesthetic finishes.
This deliverable must contain at least 1 image size DIN A3, in a high quality pdf or jpg format with a resolution of 300px.

• Material sample book
The Material Sample Book is the deliverable that indicates how to produce the Colour & Trim lines contained in the Inspiration Panel using real physical materials.

The material sample book presentation format must include at least 1 horizontal rigid panel sized DIN A3 with the materials proposed by the competitor attached or stuck to it.

Concerning the application of light, please focus on the cover material that lets light through it. Electronic or lighting devices are not required from participants. Maier will supply the jury with a light table to show the effect through the material indicated by the participant.

• Vehicle application
This deliverable represents the Colour & Trim design applied to the design of the 2025+ vehicle.

The designs of the following environments will be evaluated:
- Body Exterior Front Module (front grille, trims, etc.)
- Body Exterior Upper Side (DLO, pillars, mouldings, etc).
This deliverable must contain at least 1 image, size DIN A3, in a high quality pdf or jpg format with a resolution of 300px.

Please, pay attention to detail!

• Abstract
