Anyone who has ever loved automotive design knows the calling often begins young. Not every passion becomes a career, but it grows into a devotion, a way of seeing the world that only true automotive enthusiasts understand. It shapes how you read form, how you appreciate proportion, and how you sense identity in the presence of a machine.

For Shaun Abdi, that early fascination did not fade. It deepened. What began as curiosity became instinct, and instinct became discipline. He went on to study the craft formally, refining his understanding of engineering, structure, and the mechanics that support purposeful design. His knowledge became as technical as it was artistic, allowing him to create with both intuition and precision.

Shaun comes from strong roots. He was raised in a family where character mattered, where responsibility was taught through action, and where trust was something earned and protected. This foundation shaped the way he approaches his work today, with a sense of devotion and integrity that guides every decision he makes.

The Founder’s story

Shaun grew up studying vehicles the way others study portraits.
Each one carried intention.
Each suggested something about the person behind the wheel.

This way of seeing became the basis of his craft. Quiet observation matured into a clear design language rooted in refinement, proportion, and emotional resonance.

That same devotion shapes Abdi Design today.
The atelier exists to give form to ideas that cannot be mass produced. It is a place where vision becomes something lasting, where discipline and instinct meet to build one of one creations with clarity, restraint, and purpose.

For those who feel that same inner pull toward identity and meaning, this is where a story can take shape through design.

"People think my work begins with sketches. It begins with silence. I sit with a client and listen until the shape of who they are starts to emerge."
