Each Design Studio has about 30 team members, comprised of Designers, Studio Engineers and Clay Modelers. At the heart of a typical studio are 5 metal plates on which dimensionally accurate, full-size production models are created. Designers and Studio Engineers have computer workstations overlooking the modeling work in progress. Integrated into the walls are large areas where sketches are displayed for management review.

There are many different areas used to view models during the various development stages. The courtyard is used for outdoor distance viewing and is overlooked by our design studios. Our indoor Dome, with its controlled lighting and curved ceiling, is used for vehicle reviews and presentations. In addition, two state-of-the-art multi-media rooms are used to view full-size interior and exterior computer animated models.
