Maybe one isn’t too younger to assist design the look of a automobile … with the assistance of a field of crayons.
Don’t inform nine-year-old Oliver Gorrod, who lives in Oxfordshire in England, that it may well’t be accomplished. Younger Oliver has completed first in a contest sponsored by MINI Electrical within the U.Okay. and crayon-maker Crayola to create an exterior coloration wrap for the EV that “champions nature.”
“I like the idea of all cars being electric, as they are better for the environment, animals and the planet. My car is designed as camouflage, so it blends into natural environments,” mentioned the younger man, who was amongst a whole bunch of entrants aged from 4 to 10 years from the U.Okay.
Oliver wins the respect of his design being featured as a vinyl wrap for a automobile (he solely wins the wrap) and a bundle of Crayola artwork supplies for himself and his college. Oliver will even get an invitation to go to MINI Plant Oxford for a personal tour.
“The creativity of the designs were fantastic,” said Federico Izzo, director for MINI UK & Ireland. “We are excited to bring Oliver’s design to life and hope he will continue to innovate and dream big in the future.”
Added Jade Childs of Crayola, “We are delighted to share Crayola art materials with Oliver and his class as part of the competition prize, and we hope they will continue to be inspired and express themselves as they explore, discover, play, pretend, and dream.”
