Audi A7 Overview
Emotion-packed design, sporty character and innovative technology: Audi is targeting a new market segment with the A7. The large five-door model with the dynamically accentuated rear end brings together the best of three worlds: the sporty elegance of a coupe, the comfort of a sedan and the practicality of a station wagon.
Audi A7 Papercraft Model
The Audi A7 design began with a clean sheet of paper. Graphic design artist Taras Lesko started this project with 285 clean sheets of paper. Using photos and drawings of the A7, he designed 750 model pieces out of card stock, which he then printed, folded and glued together. His equipment was a laser printer, two desktop cutting plotters, glue and an X-ACTO knife. More than 245 hours later, he had created his own bold vision.
Behind The Scenes
Audi exterior designer Achim-D Badstübner provides a behind-the-scenes look into the creation of the all-new Audi A7. It is one of the most unusual genesis stories in the Audi model family. The A7 was a design team's dream project that originated without an order and without a requirements specification -- and literally seduced the Board of Management.
