Syd Mead. He's done a whole lot of interesting concept art and designs for films, architecture and automobiles. On his website, Turn-A was a "redesign of the core character mobile suit Gundam". Turn-A was conceived when Mead was in his 60s, so there must've been countless influences on his design which makes Turn A stand out.
