Rolls-Royce appoints new design director

04/07/2012
Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has appointed Giles Taylor its new design director in place of Ian Cameron, who has retired from the position after 13 years, but who will remain as a brand ambassador until April 2013.
 
Giles Taylor has spent 10 years as a designer in the car industry, acting as head of design for two model series at Jaguar. He joined the Rolls-Royce design team in April 2011 as head of exterior design.
 
Torsten Müller-Ötvös, chief executive of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, said on announcing the development: “I would like to thank Ian Cameron for his contribution to the resurgence of the Rolls-Royce marque. His legendary design capabilities combined with his passion for the company’s distinguished heritage have made him an integral part of the success of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars since the brand was acquired by the BMW Group [in 1998]. As his successor, Giles Taylor has a deep knowledge of emotive brands in the luxury segment and a proven track record, and is the perfect choice to lead the Rolls-Royce design team to future success.”
