How does mobility of the future look like?
What studies show today will eventually become reality. In science fiction films, large teams of designers deal with this topic and yet one cannot be sure how mobility in form and function will be in the future. What types of vehicles will there be?
Do we drive, hover or fly ? Will autonomous transportation become the standard ? Does a means of transportation have panes or is everything done via cameras & screens ? Does the object have wheels ?
Detached and independent of a certain design language, we ended up at a point where we wanted to design a means of concept ourselves. Reduced to a minimum.
We photographed the project in one of the most inhospitable landscapes in the world, similar to the conditions on another planet. Dramatic weather, unusual light, interesting cloud formations and the rugged, wild landscape.
Our means of transport reflects the surroundings to a high degree, the object integrates itself almost chameleon-like into the landscape, and becomes one with it.
How do you recognize a vehicle of this kind in its movement ? Does it leave traces ? Do we see tire treads ? Or will the only reference to mobility in the future be light ?
Light is everything.
