ME
Hello, my name is Kyungmin Oh.
Originally from Seoul, South Korea, I am currently CMF Lead at Calty Toyota Design in Newport, CA.
With over ten years in the automotive industry, I bring a genuine passion for color, material, and finish design to everything I create.
My work spans brands like Hyundai, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Buick, Canoo, and Mazda. What I enjoy most is finding the right design language for each brand and translating that into something that truly resonates with its audience.
I specialize in CMF ideation, visualization, and design development, with a strong foundation in high quality production built through my years at GM and Hyundai. That hands-on production experience across two of the industry's most demanding environments has sharpened my eye for detail and given me a deep understanding of what it takes to bring a design from concept all the way to showroom.
This year marks ten years since I took my first step into automotive CMF at GM Korea in 2016, and I am just as excited about this field today as I was on day one.
If you would like to connect or learn more about my work, feel free to reach out through the email below.
Thank you!
