SWATCH DELIVERY EV

this was an independant study i did when I was a 7th term
student at ACCD back in 1992.  at this time i envision that there
would be more collaboration between  iconic product firms
(nike, swatch, apple) and the transportation industry.  i used swatch because of its 
strong brand image, global appeal and its' strong
design funkiness.  a year later after this project was initiated,
without any connection, mercedes-benz announced its'
collaboration with swatch and was developing the smart
vehicles for urban cities of europe, asia and north america
laws of attraction in working progress i guess
INDY CORVETTE 3025

a sketch i did for 7th term vis com class at ACCD92
this is a 3 passenger vehicle where the occupants would
sit side by side to keep a well balanced weight ratio.  i was 
imagining by the year 3025, vehicles would be design with
the intention of not only being on the road but as well being
able to travel up into the skies, thus the winged influence shapes

NASA MOON BUGGY
personal project i thought would be cool to do for the
next moon missions by nasa. the mB-1 can adjust its'
road height according to the different terrains on the surface
of the moon

FUTURA

sketch i did for my personal website to show
what an anti gravity vehicle may look like. the idea
was to suspend the cabin under an exoskeleton frame
where the cabin can lean while the vehicle is cornering
into the turn

MITSUBISHI DIAMANTE 2030

a project i did as an intern at mistubishi design studio in
cypress, california 1991. inspired by the architectural
deconstructionism philosophy and the folding
techniques of japanese oragami. i had created a lot of
paper models and studied not only the surfaces
but as well the empty spaces between the surfaces



MERCEDES-BENZ FUEL CELL AUTO RACER 2030
a sketch i did for the entrance of the mercedes-benz advanced design
studio of japan to inspire guest who visited the studio in its' hay days
the design is to reflect mercedes-benz advanced technology in the area
of fuel cell development and active intelligent suspension
