CONCEPT
my concept started with the simple word
RUDIMENTARY
then was broken down to
ORGANIC | RIGID
transition space
FLOWING FORM | STRONG ANGLES
from those broken down analysis, the concept of my assignment starts with the basic form of a car.
CAR
ENGINE | SEATS | CHASSY | PEOPLE
GEARS & FLUIDS | ERGONOMIC | WIND RESISTANCE & HEAD LIGHTS | USER

FLUIDS |
GEARS [INNER WORKINGS]
from this analysis of looking into the types of cars, the definition behind the mechanical machines are what makes the exotic car so unique. the contrast of rigid + organic forms can be seen in the competitive nature of these two italian car companies. lamborgini takes the form of RIGID, where ferrari take the form of ORGANIC.
connecting these two forms into a conceptual model has been challenging but i have a solution, in both cars an engine works from behind, and within the engine you will find RIGID pressed metal to guide the ORGANIC oils + liquids to run the high performance vehicle.
the final concept model will portray the inner workings of two high performancing vehicles and the competitive nature of their chassis design which make the companies world renown.
