Description
Summary:Trending autonomous car concepts and projects have revealed a possible future of self-driven cars. This radical idea of a 'driverless' car brings new ways of 'seeing' and 'using' a car, challenging current modes of personal transportation where proportion, interior, controls and seating arrangements are usually set in place and beyond the user's decision. The prospect also highlights the shifting role of driver to passenger as the need for the car to be under constant control diminishes. Designed as a framework for mobility that is beyond existing dogma, VITREOUS aspires a bold re-thinking of practicality and experience through flexible operatives, material hypothesis and technology.
