Biography:

My name is Vincent Alomia I’m 22 years old. I live near Coventry in the UK. I have completed a 3-year BA in Transportation Design at Northumbria University in Newcastle and am now part way through completing a MA in Automotive Design at Coventry University. Cars have always been a passion in my life from a small age whether it be doodling them or getting my hands dirty with them, and through time I grew to appreciate good design as well and wanted to marry the to together in what seems to me the prefect job. Outside of university I enjoy traveling, having traveled round Europe and spening this summer in South East Asia. I enjoy spectating and participating in many sports, Soccer and Motor sports especially.

Description:

The Citroen Routier is an alternative luxury tourer model, highly influenced by the sophisticated chic of Parisian and south of France lifestyles. I wanted the opportunity to bring back Citroens image as Frances most pioneering and stylish car companies with a unique design statement. The most prominent part of the design is a canopy made from a lightweight composite glass, which can change color to reflect moods and its’ surrounding.
