Staple Design's Kia Soul Decals Evoke the Weather

Design and cars are two of my favorite things, let alone things to write about.  At long last the two have met in a glorious union that is STAPLE DESIGN and Kia, who have collaborated to produce one awesome product.

Take Kia’s budget-friendly Soul and put STAPLE DESIGN’s “Rain Camo” (inspired by rainy days in New York City) decal on the outside, and you have 100% cool. Even cooler still, the car is going on a tour across the U.S. of A. featuring four days of free, live music by well known artists.
