The V&A Dundee design museum in Scotland has opened with full-size clay model of Jaguar’s all-electric I-Pace.
A bespoke full-size clay model of the Jaguar I-Pace, created by the brand’s world-renowned designer Ian Callum, took centre stage at Scotland’s first dedicated design museum.
The I-Pace exhibit was unveiled on September 15 at the grand opening of the new V&A Design Museum in Dundee, which highlights the global achievements of Scottish designers past and present.
The clay model shows the painstaking and elaborate design process behind the firm’s first all-electric vehicle as well as the steps followed to create all new Jaguars.
Fifty years after writing letters, as a schoolboy, to Jaguar asking for help to become a car designer, Ian Callum has become world-renowned.
Dundee is a fitting location to display the all-electric I-Pace: as Scotland’s only Go Ultra Low City, it has one of the highest number of charging points in the UK.
The new museum will bring touring exhibitions from the V&A and other international museums to Scotland, as well as curating its own exhibitions in future years.
V&A Dundee will have an international outlook: investigating the global importance of design, commissioning new work and contributing to public understanding of the role of design in everyone’s lives.
V&A Dundee will also present the largely untold story of Scotland’s outstanding design achievements, bringing together in one place the world-renowned V&A collections with loans from other collections in Scotland and beyond to allow all to understand and be inspired by this rich design heritage.
