This paper presents a critical review of aesthetic design with a focus on the application of vehicle interiors. In particular, the following aspects of the subject are covered: first, aesthetics and its relevance to product design; second, the integrated aesthetic design process; third, the evaluation of aesthetic responses; fourth, the notion of intelligent vehicle interiors; fifth, the computational methods for aesthetic design. Shortcomings in existing studies related to vehicle aesthetic design are identified and analysed. The methodology employed to conduct this review is such that a set of questions important to these aspects are defined first, and then existing studies are analysed on the basis of their provision of answers to these questions. At the end, several ideas are proposed, which are brought together as a software environment, with the goals of overcoming these identified shortcomings and advancing the automobile interior aesthetic design technology.
