Goran Ozbot - Lexus iE

- transparent, honest exterier
- revieling the interier
- honest luxury

autor quotation:
Every time you spend money, youre casting a vote for the world you want. This comment by A Lapp is the starting point for my project, stimulating future luxury customers to choose a product, aware of its context. Therefore I involve people through group dynamics early on in a design process that shows contradictions in our perception of high-end offering luxury in a way that satisfies the user while involving the environment positively, interpreting luxury by the space it gives and the space it is in.

Jeehoon Shin

- frame + twist
- more drivers positions
- blue cheese moment of love - stronger than sugar
- vacum forming aesthetics (transition between organic and technical) - Transition design language

autor quotation:
"I want to create a car, a zone, an experience where the driver sees and feels the world totally differently, from a creative perspective. A vehicle is one of the few products where the user goes inside and moves outside. This makes it not only a transportation device but also a medium for experiencing the world from a different perspective. I want to explore the possibilities of this new mobile medium, in its exterior form and on-road experience."
