Fresh* Air

A fast paced lifestyle and everyday stresses result in people being more emotionally drained and physically worn out.

Within enclosed spaces there is not enough air exchanging, chemicals emitting from on-board electronic devices, all lead to in-car pollution and an unpleasant driving experience.

Via the help of innovate materials, a car that can rejuvenate automatically will provide the experience of natural air flow and fresh oxygen. This is my solution!

    MA Vehicle Design, 2014

  • To observe, learn and think is my everyday design practice. As a designer with a cross-disciplinary educational background, I find it is my vision and also my interest to try to broaden vehicle design’s boundaries by finding and solving problems. I enjoy challenging myself: being bold, taking risks and change are the driving force behind my decision to study abroad and chase my design dream at the RCA.
