In what is arguably his most out the box collaboration the Chicago native has partnered up with Mercedes-Benz for a very unique take one of their most beloved models. The creative has redesigned their Geländewagen SUV in honor of the Nobu Malibu location in California. Virgil and Mercedes Chief Creative Director Gorden Wagene detailed the effort with the G-Class silhouette in High Snobiety.

Abloh explained the car’s distinct scheme in his signature wax poetic delivery. “It shows that luxury doesn’t have to conform to ways of the past. It shows that design can show a new personality” he said. “Our partnership came about sort of organically. We met up, and instantly started flowing ideas back and forth of what we could do if we were to collaborate, and it all just grew from there.”.

He went on to further detail why the look and feel of the ride is so polarizing. “One of the key points that we wanted to come across in the final product is the idea of being handmade, and human touch” he revealed. “You see this most in the finish of the car – it’s not a glossy, dark paint finish. This is intentional and something that was really important to the both of us. We’ve brought in a lot of racing elements as well, which are apparent throughout the exterior and interior of the vehicle”.

But if you put all the hype to the side, his version strikes a glaring resemblance to the Kia Soul; an economically priced subcompact crossover SUV that is far from luxury. For those scratching their heads this was the same car that a trio of hamsters made famous in their version of Party Rock”. You relive the moment below.

A replica of Project Geländewagen is set to be auctioned at Sotheby’s with the proceeds going to charity.

2019 Gorden Wagener: Ein Tag mit dem Mercedes Chef Designer | Interview | Daimler | Design| Deutsch

2019 Gorden Wagener: Ein Tag mit dem Mercedes Chef Designer | Interview | Daimler | Design| Deutsch Als Chief Design Officer der Daimler AG ist Gorden Wagener u.a. verantwortlich für das Design aller Mercedes-Benz PKW. Doch das ist längst nich Ales! Seine Design-Philosophie der „Sinnlichen Klarheit“ findet sich in allen Daimler Produkten wieder. Ich habe Gorden einen Tag begleitet und mich mit ihm über seine Arbeit und die damit verbundenen Herausforderungen unterhalten. Und ganz nebenbei konnte ich dabei den Menschen Gorden Wagener ein wenig besser kennenlernen.

Mercedes-Benz Chef-Designer Gorden Wagener kündigt ein neues Showcar an. Sicher für Pebble Beach. "Another iconic car" wie Stefan Handt, Leiter Exterior Design, meint. Neue Ikone? Oder Neubelebung einer echten Ikone? Was könnte das sein? Uns fällt da nur der SL ein. Und Euch? #GordenWagener #SteffenKöhl #StefanHandt #daimler #design #SL #iconiccars #iconiccar #designrevolution #thinkBig #MenInBenz #MercedesFans @gorden.wagener @stefan.handt
