Then step by step or, should I say, proof of concept by proof of concept, we implemented Blender into the process. That was the first step of our journey into Blender.

Based on pictures, I modelled a front seat in 4 hours when my future manager Pierre-Paul Andriani expected me to release this data in a day or two. I was between interviews when I was asked to model, in Blender, a seat of my choice for a test. That’s how we got into Blender in a car creating a digital model of a seat is particularly long because of the soft materials used and the criteria. The questions raised were how to speed up the process and how to make our digital life easier: one answer, use a different software during those early stages. However, we knew that using this software in the early stages of creation was very time consuming.
