Interior Design: Even More Out Of Left Field The Audi TT design team pulled its influences from all over, including music, architecture, and fashion. However, the interior drew more from the sport of baseball than anywhere else. The interior design team consisted of Romulus Rost, Martin Smith, Hartmut Warkuss and Peter Schreyer. Rost liked the idea of the way a ball is contained and held firmly in place by a baseball glove and used it as a concept for the TT's seats. He wanted people inside the Audi TT to become one with the car, and that's why the seats are shaped like baseball gloves. On top of the comfortable seats, the interior was driver-focused and ingeniously laid out. It also shunned the automakers of the 1990s habit of overloading cabins with switches and showy technology in favor of minimalism.
