Why Cadillac Designed Its F1 Camouflage to Actually Stand Out - Yanko Design

Cadillac's response was to design specifically for that liminal space. The testing livery features what they call "the Cadillac precision geometric pattern" in gloss and matte sequences, turning functional camouflage into brand vocabulary. They're using the constraint of secrecy to communicate design philosophy, establishing that their approach blends automotive prototype discipline with motorsport theater. The giant Cadillac crest draped across the engine cover isn't trying to hide anything. It's declaring that the space between stealth and spectacle is itself worth designing for.

The same goes for the rear, where it looks like BMW has yet again not bothered to give the M car bespoke doors to match the more muscular rear haunches.

Camouflage clothing may be having a moment but in our violent world, is that wise? | Ellie Violet Bramley

I write camouflage in inverted commas because it was blue and, amid the dusty devastation of Gaza, there was nothing about it or the bumbag he wore with it that helped Witkoff blend in. It's an odd paradox that a pattern designed to melt military personnel into their surroundings the word is derived from the French camoufler, to disguise when worn by certain people, in certain ways, does the opposite.
