#peterolah took over the position of Head of #interiordesign at ŠKODA AUTO on December 1st 2020

Mladá Boleslav, 3 December 2020 – #peterolah took over the management of the #interiordesign department at ŠKODA AUTO on Decemer 1st 2020. The habilitated designer has been responsible for the interior architecture of all ŠKODA models since 2015.

KODA Head of #design Oliver Stefani said, With #peterolah at the helm, the interior architecture of our models has taken a big step forward in recent years. As head of the #interiordesign Architecture department he has, with his team, brought numerous innovative concepts to life and set new impulses. His creative ideas and his many years of experience make #peterolah an ideal candidate for the role of Head of #interiordesign. I’m delighted to continue working with him.

After completing his studies at the Slovak Technical University in Bratislava, Olah founded a #design studio before joining Volkswagen Group in 2002. He started out at the ŠKODA #design Studio where he was appointed as a senior designer in 2005. A year later, Olah moved to the Volkswagen Group #design Center Europe in Potsdam and worked on projects for various Volkswagen Group brands. He returned to ŠKODA in 2007 as a #design project manager. During this period, he also completed his doctorate and, after gaining his habilitation, he became a docent at the Slovak Technical University. Later he went on to manage the #interiordesign, Details and Human Machine Interface (HMI) team. In addition to #design strategy, his responsibilities included interior models, digital #design models and interface #design, as well as connectivity and infotainment #design, graphic #design and merchandising.

Since 2015, #peterolah has been responsible for the interior architecture of all ŠKODA models. In his new role as Head of #interiordesign, Olah is charged with the #interiordesign of the entire vehicle in all model ranges. His remit therefore includes interior architecture as well as the #design of control elements (that is the user interface, or UI) and the #design of the user experience (UX), as well as the selection of colours, fabrics and materials (colour & trim).

Olah also designed trophies for the winners of the Tour de France and worked on the cups for the IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship and other events.
