Rolls-Royce has just announced the departure from the company of Head of Design, Giles Taylor, who has decided to leave Rolls-Royce Motor Cars and the BMW Group to pursue alternative business interests. He probably could not find another boxy design to work with after the Cullinan.
Taylor will leave the business with immediate effect. An announcement with regard to a successor will be made in due course.
Giles Taylor is the man responsible for models such as the new Phantom and the company’s very first SUV, the recently launched Cullinan. He was also in charge of the forward-thinking Vision Next 100 concept.
