BMW Concept CS official video part 1


This is one of the official BMW Concept CS videos available on YouTube, I have chosen to present to you this one on Exterior Design because I find it a rare example of good elegant & sporty Design. You will also notice the high quality in finished detailing and a bit of BMW Led technology. Be carefull about the new Design language that BMW Design is starting to try, look carefully at body sections, Front & Rear graphics.

I am happy to have found this video that show the Art of Syd Mead a Futurist Designer graduated at Art Center College of Pasadena in California. This video is dedicated to all design students on earth..when I was in school I dreamed thanks to him too!Enjoy.

Furniture Design by Xavier Lust


This "Crédence" has been designed by Xavier Lust for De Padova.
I like this model because I find in it a very interesting "automotive design approach". You will notice that the main sections and volumes are treated in a non conventional way and most of all I like the way the assembly is done hiding all the cut lines. A quality job. Well done.
