Bicycle Traffic Measurement System

Friday, 9 February 2024

VeloClass

As municipalities are starting to realize the opportunities in bicycle traffic and bicycle tourism, they struggle to see which directions to develop, where and how to involve private investments. Which direction should they develop? Which properties are valuable for opening a restaurant for the cyclists? These challenges touch base in data: to know exactly how many vehicles go in each direction, on each route. Veloclass provides exact statistics about the size and direction of bicycle road traffic, telling apart different types of vehicles.

Fastback

The Fastback features an alternative electric guitar concept based on a new design language inspired by the shapes of a Ferrari. Form and function united in a lightweight, ergonomic, and balanced body sculpted through elegant lines and athletic shapes with sense of flow and speed. Innovative enough to reach new horizons, and conservative enough to be welcomed by the varied tastes of guitarists around the world. A new concept projected into the future without losing its classical roots.

By scanning the code stamped beforehand, the bereaved ones can reach the person's digital presence after his or her death. Through the physical interaction of stamping a seal, the designer explores the secure yet intimate approach for inheritance in the digital era.
