Auto cabins are becoming more central to the vehicle’s overall appeal, with elegant design, homelike finishes, seats like those in a living room, and other fancy features enhanced by thoughtful attention to colors, materials, and finishes. Increasingly evident at events this year—the IAA, Geneva @ Qatar, Milan Design Week, the Shanghai Motor Show, Automobility LA—we see more and more new surface materials and decorations with light, color, texture, and special effects. On premium high-end cars, there’s veritable jewelry inside. But even without that, much as a tie or a scarf enriches even an ordinary outfit, today’s cars are full of little things (and some big things, too) that make the interior a nicer place to be. That’s what interior design and decoration are all about. We had the chance to visit Novem and interview the team there. That’s this week’s in-depth piece, bringing you a better understanding of the company, and the trends and technologies emerging in car interior decoration.
For us at DVN Interior—probably for you, too, if you’re reading this—the future of mobility is all in how people are using vehicles, and how the interior should be defined. This is what’s happening across literally all vehicle segments; we even saw active transition towards a focus on mobility in Milan at EICMA, the international two-wheeler exhibition, which is the most important trade fair event for the entire 2-wheel sector.
That’s all to the good. The more different perspectives come to the mobility table and speak up, the better for us all.
And speaking of us all: it’s nice to have you on board at DVN Interior!
Sincerely yours,
