Second place went to Roland Kaufmann from Austria, for his Citroen drain-cover concept made from a C4’s alloy rim and third place to Italian Valerio Stamaccioni, for his design which uses recycled glass from Citroen side windows to create a free-standing sculpture of glass sheets covered with special filters that play with the ambient lighting to create different optical effects. |
