Mustang Interior Trim
challenge
• Differentiate interior trim across multiple models.
solution
The four versions of interior trim shown here were manufactured using one set of tooling. Altering decoration on the metal trim was a cost effective way for Ford designers to create distinctly different looks across the Mustang line. A classic brushed aluminum finish was one options selected for the Mustang trim. The carbon fiber finish which was chosen also uses brushing and texture to create movement. The selected dot patternbuilds on the aluminum finish with a transparent grey tint in the background and a clear texture on the dots. The woven geometric or technical finish uses the same processes resulting in a completely different look. |
