It's easy to confuse the terms 'design' and 'style,' but Jim Hall attempts to explain the difference between the two in his latest <em>Design Handbook</em> video column for <em>Autoline</em>. Before relating the terms to cars, Hall first uses other, non-automotive-related examples to prove his point, such as a well-designed glass versus a well-styled glass. Both do their job well as a result of good designs, he claims, but one stands out more because it also was styled.<br />
<br />
When he relates his lesson to cars, he uses the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/honda/accord/">2013 Honda Accord</a> and the new <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/chevrolet/impala/">Chevrolet Impala</a> as examples, but you'll have to watch the video <a href="/2013/10/11/design-handbook-video-design-vs-styling-cars/#continued">below</a> to find out which car he thinks is merely designed and which one has been styled.<br />
<br />
We've also included a <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2013-honda-accord-sport-sedan/">gallery</a> of the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/honda/">Honda</a> and a <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/photos/2014-chevrolet-impala-first-drive/">gallery</a> of the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/chevrolet/">Chevrolet</a> so you can decide for yourself which one of these vehicles has been designed, and which one has been styled.<p><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2013/10/11/design-handbook-video-design-vs-styling-cars/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Design Handbook explains the difference between design and styling</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ddd;border:1px solid #ccc;clear:both;"><a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2013/10/11/design-handbook-video-design-vs-styling-cars/">Design Handbook explains the difference between design and styling</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://www.autoblog.com">Autoblog</a> on Fri, 11 Oct 2013 15:16:00 EST.
