Gaetano Caponnetto
Montebelluna (Treviso) Italy
I am firmly convinced that best results at work are obtained when a high degree of professionalism is supported by passion, I am automotive addicted since I was a child. Born in 1962, I have gained a high school degree in electronics and as a surveyor, passionate about motors, architecture and industrial design, when I observe the shape of any object near me, I am driven by a sixth sense about proportions, lines and volumes found in the golden section rules, the absolute star of harmony as it can be found in the creations of Mother Nature, as well as in the drawings of Leonardo Da Vinci and Andrea Palladio. I often see designers forced to clash, condemned to such botches by Marketing Departments, that they could go sell vegetables as opposed to goods such as cars, whose is absolute emotional. What I am trying to obtain is the chance to prove myself as Car Design Consultant for exteriors and interiors for free for your company, my fee would consist of the opportunity being granted to me. The role I imagine is that of a consultant helping to choose different design proposals for a given market segment. I do not understand how certain cars have ended up being fiascos in spite of the support of great designers, celebrated managers and marketing departments run by the best graduates.
