MAREK REICHMAN

Vice president and chief creative officer, Aston Martin

THE launch of the all-new Vantage was a triumph for Marek Reichman, whose design team has overseen a complete revamp of the Aston Martin range. He has also fine-tuned the look of the forthcoming Valkyrie hypercar and is finalising the shape of Aston’s first SUV, which is expected to be called Varekai when it arrives in 2019. There’s a reborn Lagonda brand to also consider, plus Aston is flexing its muscle as a brand, so his input is needed on everything from speedboats to submarines.
