The Brief
Born from the insights of a recent study that showed 40 per cent of Canadians have the desire to create more livable spaces in their homes, The New Garage Design Challenge aimed to empower conceptual thinkers, design thought leaders, and ultimately inspire all eligible Canadians to re-think the garage and vehicle relationship into one that embodies innovative, beautifully designed and sustainable elements.
The shortlist finalists were determined by the following key criteria:
How original, innovative, and creative is the vision?
How sustainable and future-proof is the design?
How well does the concept and design complement the key features of the Volvo XC40 Recharge?
