06 Entalpia concept in studio light — front and wheel detail

Move the mouse — highlight bands sweep across the body. This is exactly how class-A surface quality is judged in the studio.

Independent design studio — Mladá Boleslav, Czech Republic

A sketch that grows into an icon.

Automotive, product and robotics design under one roof — from the first sketch to 3D data that goes straight into production.

We design cars, products and robots. Every concept starts as a pencil sketch and ends as 3D data that is ready for production. Everything happens under one roof. Form follows emotion.

What we offer

02 / Services
  1. 01 Automotive design Concept sketches, 3D models and renders that put your car in its best light.
  2. 02 Product & industrial design A complete product development process — CAD data, drawings and patent documentation.
  3. 03 Motorsport & aerodynamics Parts and surfaces that perform on the track, not just on screen. We work with CFD specialists.
  4. 04 Robotics & URDF Robot design including the kinematic model, exported to URDF for simulation.
  5. 05 Visualisation & presentation Renders of the design data and a true-scale walk-around of the model in VR and AR.
  6. 06 Livery & paint schemes Paint schemes for aircraft, cars and motorcycles — from concept to paint-shop templates.

Not sure where your project fits?Most commissions combine several disciplines at once — an engine intake and a sports sleeve are both, at heart, a surfacing problem. Tell us what you are working on and we will suggest the approach that makes sense.

How we work

03 / Sketch → surface → data → render
Phase 01 · Sketch
  1. Phase 01

    Sketch

    Proportions and stance come first. We keep sketching until the form works from every angle — not just the flattering one.

    Hand sketches of a vehicle concept
  2. Phase 02

    Surfaces

    From the sketch we build 3D surfaces and check them with highlights and sections until they are truly clean. Light sweeps and the zebra test come before anything is approved.

    Surface check — control mesh on the body
  3. Phase 03

    CAD data

    From the finished surfaces we prepare production-ready data — for carbon, CNC or simulation. Drawings and documentation included.

    CAD model — platform packaging
  4. Phase 04

    Render

    Renders, true-scale AR or files for the paint shop. Everything that sells the design — inside the company and out.

05 / About

Daniel Novák — founder & designer. Automotive & industrial design.

At eighteen he runs his own design studio. He has been designing for over five years — he started with sketches and today owns the whole process, right through to production-ready data. He designs car concepts, motorsport parts, carbon components, products and robots.

He spent ten months working on projects at Aufeer Design. That is where he learned how to define surfaces to true automotive quality — precise enough to satisfy engineers — and he holds every project to that same bar.

“Every project stays with me from start to finish. You deal with one person throughout, so your vision never gets lost along the way.”

Why DN Design Studio

Four reasons
  1. 01

    The whole chain under one roof

    Sketch, surfaces, data and renders all come from one place. Nothing gets lost in the handoff between people.

  2. 02

    Design that is ready to build

    We build surfaces so they can go straight into manufacturing — not just make a pretty picture.

  3. 03

    Speed and direct communication

    You talk directly to the designer. You get options from the very first sketch, and you make the call.

  4. 04

    NDA as standard

    Confidentiality is a given. We work with clients across Czechia, Slovakia and abroad — remotely or in person.

Working with Daniel on the design of our Vans RV-8 was excellent — a professional approach, a precise design, and a result that exceeded our expectations.
