Polestar Design Contest: the jury

The Polestar Design Contest features a truly expert jury. Polestar Head of Design Maximilian Missoni, Senior Design Manager Juan Pablo Bernal and Car Design Research Director Sam Livingstone are the ones who will evaluate every submission, pore over every detail, and ultimately determine the winners of the contest.

They’ll also offer advice, guidance and feedback to designers during the process. A hallmark of the Polestar Design Contest, shortlisted contestants have personal sessions with both the jury members and Polestar Head of Sustainability Fredrika Klarén.

See above to watch the jury discuss this year’s theme, their personal journeys through the world of car design, and more. And to learn more about this year’s contest, head on over to the Polestar Design Contest page.

Performance, precision and progress – Polestar and the world of cycling

The humble bicycle. A clever human invention that has withstood the test of time, becoming a staple in transport and leisure all around the world. It has also been the catalyst for competitive cycling – a hugely popular, high-intensity sport where athletes push the limits of strength and endurance to outperform the competition. And, like Polestar, it’s grounded in precision, efficiency, and the relentless pursuit of progress. Coinciding with this year’s Tour Down Under in Adelaide, Polestar supported the International Cycling Executives – a global business community connected through their passion for cycling – with their first major gathering in January. Like-minded professionals came together across the week for a series of rides, with Polestar support vehicles in tow. The week of rides concluded with an event featuring a panel discussion with Olympic cyclist Grace Brown and Polestar Australia’s Managing Director Scott Maynard, as the group connected on shared values of performance, sustainability, and community.
