Argento Reloaded 1 Report post Posted October 13, 2006 The best college for that is here in California. The Art Center College of Design in Pasadena. Go there. I think there are more choices around the world. The Art Center is one of the most famous and definitively the best american design college, but is you like to open your mind and contact other people and other cultures you have the IED (European Design Institute), the Domus Academy at Milan, Umea in Sweden (a little bit cold!), Royal Art College (UK) and Pzforheim (Germany) just to name a few of the most famous.

Jean Todt 4 Report post Posted October 13, 2006 There's no need to insult me by saying I need to contact 'other cultures'; if you have a case, then present it please. I maintain that The Art Center is the best for automotive design. okie! the truth is that i would like to stick to europe (not because i dont like america or i got anything against them), what about design courses in swiss and italy? i heard the european institute of design in italy have special classes in english just to attract indian students!!!

I shall bow out of giving advice in this area as I'm not an automotive designer. I can only suggest the Art Center as it has always been at the forefront of automotive design.
