Mercedes Vision XX
Mercedes Vision XX is a futuristic concept focusing on the year 2040. It is a motorcycle that is powered by hydrogen, its characteristic design seeks to show the futuristic character of the Mercedes brand.
Its design is focused on having maximum versatility within a sporty design line. In this way the rear wheel can be expanded, as well as the handlebars to provide different experiences and emotions to the user.
The Vision XX has two different modes, trying to cover as much as possible and provide the best user experience.
In this case we are in phase 1. The rear wheel is in the least extended position, as well as the handlebars. This makes cornering easier, especially at tighter angles. The rider’s position is more relaxed and comfortable, as he can ride much less inclined.
Phase 2 seeks the opposite of phase 1. This is the most radical side of the motorcycle. The position of the rear wheel is in its most extended phase, as is the handlebar. The rider is in a much more aerodynamic position.
This mode seeks to reach a phase of full performance, following the spirit of the brand with this duality between elegance and sportiness.
Ford Tempestas
The Ford Tempestas, pays tribute to the iconic Ford GT being this a much more radical Gran Turismo version. The main basis for the design of this car was the 2017 Ford GT.
The main idea in this design was to get something much more focused for the circuit, much more futuristic, and with more organic shapes in its design.
The design follows the proportions of the 2017 Ford GT quite well, simply varying slightly the width. For the front, inspiration has been taken from the design of the headlights, using the graphic to shape it. This creates an opening at the front of the car. This opening continues to the rear, giving a sense of lightness throughout the car.
The rear is very open, giving a more racing feeling. In addition, the large diffuser and brake light help to give the car this Gran Turismo appearance. The tail lights follow the historical graphic of the Ford GT, maintaining the circular shape.
Chevrolet Camaro
The Chevrolet Camaro stands for one of the greatest automotive icons in the United States. Its muscular and aggressive design is certainly one of the most admired in the world of muscle cars.
Through this project I want to propose a redesign of the Chevrolet Camaro, being faithful to the brand and the essence of the car itself and its history.
My main idea was to propose a design that could fit with the current market. However, I wanted to experiment with the design of the car to reach a more futuristic point, while maintaining the essence of the original design.
A key point in my final design was to give that feeling of wideness and muscle to the design. All this combined with very clean surfaces giving that feeling of modernity that I was looking for. For the graphics of the front and rear lights, I wanted to have something simple and clean, so I decided to use horizontal lines.
Industrial Design projects
WeLoveCut is a company exclusively dedicated to selling laser cut products. They offered us to collaborate with a project that had the objective of designing a lamp made entirely with the laser cutting technique.
My final product was a floor lamp. The most interesting thing about my project is that it is completely designed to be assembled by the user himself. In this way its production and transport are much easier. So the lamp consists of three horizontal sections and many vertical ones, which fit together to obtain the final result.
Vika is a folding desk designed for working from home during the pandemic era.
At that time, problems that we didn’t know about started to arise, and many people were forced to work at home, often with very little space to do so.
Vika offers a solution with a fully equipped desk, with quality materials, storage space and fully foldable.
The aesthetic design of the desk came after finding a system that allows the desk to fold without the need for complex mechanisms. By simply applying a certain angle, the structure is very rigid under its own weight.
