Starting from the modelling requirements of the early design phase of the product development, the paper will show a possible strategy to overcome some limitations of current CAS/CAD systems. In fact, the styling stage involves both technical knowledge and fuzzy and dynamic aspects, which have to be taken into account for a proper management. The paper focuses on high-level modelling tools developed to deform surfaces with semantic (aesthetic) constraints, i.e. the crucial design elements for the stylist. Furthermore, the communication among the other actors of the design process is consequently facilitated.
