Discommon was proud to be challenged to do what we love most - being allowed to integrate in with a fantastic core team at a company. The team of engineers exemplified this. Often engineers can be wary of the designers - Lola was the opposite, damn near poking us to challenge them more at every meeting and sometimes making our parts before we even knew we were finished!
The challenge with this design project was quite unique - we were not “re-shaping” the Lola T70, we were amplifying it. The weight of this design project was on interior details but we were allowed to spill out into some exterior pieces, liveries and details. Throughout the process, the idea was to do “cool sh*t” but maintain an aesthetic befitting of a 70’s car. You’ll notice less compound surfaces than normal from us and hopefully a cabin that seems appropriate across multiple decades. We will share may more stories and details over the coming weeks
