ABOUT ANKUR:
Ankur is an incredibly smart and driven designer based in Zell am See in Austria.

By the time he was approaching graduation as an Engineer, he realised that his heart was just not in Engineering and decided that he wanted to pursue his dream of becoming a Car Designer. He convinced his parents that he was not going to start working, but in fact, return to University and change lanes.

Ankur enrolled at the Indian Institute of Technology to study Industrial Design in Delhi, where he was able to manipulate some of the briefs into Automotive themed projects. While he excelled in the creative space, it became obvious that it was necessary for him, personally, to develop his skills further in Europe and he had his heart set on Italy.

Again, he had to convince his parents that he had to study further and so he applied to SPD in Milan. After acceptance into the Foundation program, he gained admission to the Masters Course and started learning under the direction of Michele Leonello.

Ankur worked harder than he had ever done in order to get his skills to an exceptional level and eventually graduated from the program.

With a solid foundation in Engineering and 2 Masters' degrees in hand, he still struggled to find work as a Car Designer. Ankur took a job at SPD as an assistant tutor in order to keep in the loop and carry on developing.

Along the way, Ankur has unintentionally developed his very own distinctive style of sketching. What started out as an experiment has become his trademark, whereby he sketches and shades with a single marker. These sketches are totally unique and therefore instantly recognisable as an Ankur Singh sketch.

After multiple setbacks and endless determination, Ankur eventually landed a job at Design Storz in Austria where he continues to thrive today.

He is humble, hard-working, and the perfect role model for the mindset and attitude needed to rise above the adverse conditions that every aspiring designer will find themselves in when starting out.

Enjoy!

ABOUT ME:
I am a South African Designer, Digital Modeller and the host of Crown Unfiltered.

I will be talking to a cross-section of people that work in the Car Design Industry. These will include designers, digital and clay modellers, vis artists and colour & material designers. The focus of our conversations will be centered around personal processes and experiences within the business.

My aim is to demystify some of the preconceptions about this industry and give people an unadulterated glimpse into the business. I also wish to give the younger generation the opportunity to see that the people that these professionals come in different shapes and sizes and some of them will be unknown. The intention is to see that you should always be yourself and not let your job define or change who you are.

Please get in contact if there is something specific you would like me to cover.

I would also be really grateful if you could subscribe and share the podcast with anyone that has an affinity for cars, design or both.

Thank you!

Sam
