Hyundai Motor Group envisions the ultimate mobility vehicle with an assist from generative design

“Generative design helps the human mind expand the range of possibilities. With the help of generative design, a single designer or engineer can go through perhaps dozens or hundreds of different design iterations, so it enables them to see things that they may not have otherwise considered, and in tandem tackle complex problems. Which is to say that people still have a very important role to play in shaping the design direction. There will always be need for the human eye, the heart, and the soul as vital parts of the design process.”
— John Suh, Founding Director of the New Horizons Studio, Hyundai Motor Group
