Excerpt: Peter Schreyer (born 1953) is an automobile designer, widely known for his design contributions to the Audi TT and as the Chief Design Officer at Kia Motors (2006). In 2006 Car Design News called the Audi TT one of "the most influential automotive design in recent time." Schreyer was born in 1953 in Bad Reichenhall, Bavaria, West Germany, and began studying in 1975 at the Munich University of Applied Sciences (Fachhochschule München - Industrie Design).

The Kee concept vehicle, shown at the 2007 Frankfurt Motor Show, introduced a new corporate grille to create a recognizable 'face' for the brand. Known as the Tiger Nose, Shreyer indicated he wanted "a powerful visual signal, a seal, an identifier. The front of a car needs this recognition, this expression.
