In this episode of Out of Spec Bits, Jordan and Isaiah take a deep dive into the Cadillac Optiq design. We chat with the design manager and the CMF (color, material, and finish) designer to learn how Cadillac is targeting a younger audience while staying true to the brand’s luxury ethos. Let’s talk about it.
