You’ve probably already heard the news about Honor’s latest Magic 7 Pro flagship smartphone, but did you know that there’s an ultra-premium Porsche version of thetoo, that looks slightly different? Tobias Hüttl, Head of Design Studio at Porsche, kindly sat down with me to answer a few questions on this automotive design collaboration for Honor's new Magic 7 series.
We've tried different directions, and then the choice finally fell on the Provence. We think it's a bit of a mystery colour, and it's something that's still subtle, but at the same time, I think that's something that we like a lot about it. It's not resembling a super strong race car colour or anything. It's elegant still, even though it's something that people can recognize and see as something special..
Do you feel that the crossover between automotive design and global fashion trends will eventually have the same weight in the smartphone industry?
