You know, these threads would be a lot more useful if their was a story posted along with it instead of you just throwing a bunch of pictures up and not saying anything...
Anyway: Quote:
Lovos - Diploma Project Forshner Anne (Anne Forschner) from Germany Pforzheim University, created in collaboration with BMW. Anne 24 years, in July 2009 she received a second bachelor's degree, during the study have been trained in the studio Mercedes, a California studio Mazda, the Munich studio of BMW.
Title Lovos stands for Lifestyle of Voluntary Simplicity - a lifestyle of conscious simplicity. This trend, popular in the West, involves meeting the material, intellectual and spiritual needs while reducing consumption to a minimum possible level. Simply put, the conscious self-restraint.
The project - a philosophical idea, critical thinking about design, construction and use of vehicles in their usual form. Anne noted that a world in which we live, more and more complicated, and in this chaos we forget to stop, look around and think, what influence we have the products and services and how they suppress us. We rarely question the existing system and continue to live and eat out of habit. The car is the world in the form of a physical object.
Lovos questioned the usual process of designing, building, vehicle acquisition and management. The project is a symbol of the conscious self-restraint, the object, which seeks to encourage the viewer to escape from the embrace of a pleasant conformism.
Discarding our common habits and ideas, Lovos asks fundamental questions - how many elements we use to create the exterior of the machine? - Just what would a car, if you use only one repeating element?
Body Lovos consists of 260 identical interchangeable particles contained in the hinges on the overall structure. These individual elements are mobile and can be closed, as fish scales, or open. Scales operate as an air brake, and turn with the sun, gathering energy through solar cells located on them. 12 scales, closing each wheel is also functional: As soon as the car begins to move, they change their position, moving into the wheel, creating a semblance of turbines.
The interior is soft and warm, which makes the contrast with respect to the mechanical and technical appearance.
The main themes of design, Anna called contrast, emotions and provocation.
