By Jake Lingeman
Designer of the Year

Designer Luc Donckerwolke is something of a design oracle for Hyundai Motor Group, pushing beyond traditional boundaries and setting the brand's designs far apart from the crowd in ways that delight customers. He joined the Korean automaker in 2015, after stops at Peugeot and the Volkswagen Group, where he had designed showstoppers like the Lamborghini Diablo and the Bentley EXP 10 Speed Six concept. He took the chief creative officer job in 2020 and was named president of HMG in 2022.
