Awards Description
The EyesOn Design at NAIAS awards are unique to this event. They were designed by Steven Correia of Newport Beach, California with consultation and oversight by Tom Gale specifically for EyesOn Design at NAIAS.
The awards, fittingly, are of optical crystal of great purity with a very high index of refraction. Like the eye itself these awards transmit and refract light spectacularly.
The Detroit Institute of Ophthalmology has featured crystal awards in automotive design at the summer show in an effort to immortalize the connection between vision and the appreciation of the beauty of fine vehicle design.
Mr. Correia also designed the coveted awards that the Detroit Institute of Ophthalmology presents at the EyesOn Design Automotive Design Show. This highly prestigious international celebration of vehicle design of the past, present and future is held annually in June on Fathers’ Day at the Edsel & Eleanor Ford House in Grosse Pointe Shores, Michigan.
