Futuristc Standing Motorcycle Concept Design

agosto 28, 2008 from Francisco's blog

A college student has come up with the concept for a motorcycle that is upright and you wear as sort of an exoskeleton. It's so freaking cool!! I can't wait to see it move from concept to reality. Check out the video to see an animation of it in action.

The transportation program at the Art Center College of Design has produced legendary car designers, including BMW chief of design Chris Bangle and Henrik Fisker, the creator of the Fisker Karma electric supercar. But this year, after professor Bumsuk Lim’s inaugural motorcycle-design class, the buzz is all about bikes, especially Jake Loniak’s exoskeleton motorcycle concept Deus Ex Machina.

Here it leans forward like the motorcycle in Tron.

Sobre o autor

Hi readers!
I'm a Graphic Designer in New York City (Brooklyn!). NY is a hub for design and my posts will try to focus on, but will not be limited to, design related things happening in NY, such as museum exhibits, architecture, events, local artist interviews, galleries, etc. I'm very much into technology and art and how they intersect to make multimedia art installations. Hope you enjoy my posts!

Tipografia Vintage 3D no Photoshop com Repoussé
Domingo é o dia que brinco com o Photoshop e testo novas ideias. Como de costume, dei uma olhada em alguns livros e sites para encontrar inspiração. Ainda estou viciado no livro Handy Book of Artistic Printing, é um livro que você precisa ter para buscar referências de old style print. Tive algumas ideias interessantes e encontrei essa imagem de Alex Beltechi no Dribbble chamada Twisting in the Wind. Assim soube o efeito que queria criar no Photoshop.
