There are few people in this industry more enthusiastic about their job than artist and Senior Design Manager at Stellantis, Dan Zimmermann. For many of us, our love of the automotive hobby came from family, and for Dan it was no different. Now of course, growing up in his grandfather’s body shop didn’t hurt, but it was more the guidance of both his father and grandfather that really left an impression.
From there it was art school and befriending those like-minded in the way of design, until ultimately his craft was honed into the excellence it is today. On this episode of the Hemmings Hot Rod BBQ Podcast, host Mike Musto sits down with Dan to talk design philosophy, where inspiration comes from, aesthetics, and more importantly, what’s gained by sometimes drawing outside the lines and not following convention.
