Samsung Mercedes

Samsung electronics has a new EVP and Head of the Mobile Experience (MX) Design team – Hubert H. Lee. Previously, Lee was at Mercedes-Benz for over two decades and most recently was Chief Design Officer of Mercedes-Benz China.

As a leader of the MX Design Team, Lee will oversee the styling of Samsung’s Galaxy line including the flagship Galaxy S and Z series of phones, as well as Galaxy tablets and smartwatches.

“Samsung is known for building some of the world’s most beautiful products with designs that have transformed the mobile industry. I am excited to join a company that is on the bleeding edge of mobile innovation and lead the team responsible for creating new mobile experiences through the art of design,” said Hubert H. Lee.

For a taste of Hubert H. Lee’s previous work, he lead the design of the second generation Mercedes-Benz CLS (from 2012). Here’s Lee talking about his inspiration:

Some of the more “out there” designs created by Lee include the Ener-G-Force concept, which was initially created as an entry to the “2025 Patrol Car” design challenge and later a prototype vehicle was built. As you can see, the design takes inspiration from the G-Class but puts a futuristic spin on it.
