To be an accomplished vehicle designer in today’s challenging environment, it is imperative that we remain relevant to the world we are designing for. Our creativity should not be bound solely by stylistic design but open to creative innovation and problem solving. The end product should clearly communicate with the end users through appropriate and honest use of material and design.

My degree project ‘Peregrinate’ focuses on creating a new vehicular experience for hotel guest transportation. My concept seeks to enhance and extend the unique designer-hotel experience beyond the realm of traditional architectural structure in an ecological manner.
