DETROIT, March 22 /PRNewswire/ -- The world's top designers and media
annually gather in Detroit each January for the prestigious North American
International Auto Show (NAIAS). If you aren't a designer for one of the
major car companies your very best chance to have your work presented at NAIAS
is as a participant of the growing Michelin Challenge Design(TM).
Each year Michelin establishes a theme for designers all over the world.
Their design entries are reviewed by an international panel of top designers
and those selected will have their drawings, scale models or vehicles featured
at NAIAS as part of the Michelin Challenge Design exhibit. Last year 38
talented designers from 16 countries had their work presented at NAIAS through
this program.
The 2005 Challenge will focus on vehicles and vehicle designs that
demonstrate the influence of German design, the events, people and icons that
have inspired the international automotive design community.
The Challenge is open to all designers around the globe from students to
seasoned professionals. But time is growing close. Designers interested in
participating in the challenge should review the competition criteria and
complete a questionnaire on-line at http://www.michelinchallengedesign.com by the
April 15, 2004 deadline.
You wouldn't want America's premier auto show to start without your
designs.
Michelin manufactures and sells tires for every type of vehicle, including
airplanes, automobiles, bicycles, earthmovers, farm equipment, heavy-duty
trucks and the space shuttle. The company also publishes travel guides, maps
and atlases covering Europe, Asia, Africa and North America. Headquartered in
Greenville, S.C., Michelin North America employs 23,920 and operates 21 plants
in 17 locations.
