This project focused on bringing in the next generation of padded tailgate covers for a brand that is continuously setting the bar in quality and functionality. I worked to create initial concepts for this cover focusing around the problems of back-up-camera visibility and rear latch accessibility in all modern pickup trucks. The final design integrated a three-piece molded paneling creating structure and rigidity where it was needed most, while also taking into account the need for extra storage space with the inclusion of two generously sized mesh pockets. I also created the necessary initial spec/tech packs for manufacturing which included a version for both a small and large pick up truck model.
