Swedish designer Gudtaf Westman has just updated a special iteration of the Mercedes-Benz CLA Model. The all-pink concept car is designed with an integrated tent and table. It was unveiled during an event in London and it highlighted a pink pull-out picnic table at the back with a domed tent attached to the roof.
Westman explains, "I wanted a place where you can sleep and stay, so that was obviously the tent, and then a place where you can eat your dinner or breakfast, and I wanted that to kind of be integrated into the car design. "For me, pink is a colour that you don't have any strong feelings towards, and it kind of helps the shape look like that." The bubblegum pink was selected because it brought out the shape of the car.
