The origin is a project of mine for the Industrial design class for the previous semester in my home University.

When thinking about something dynamic always comes to my mind the steel joints of formula1 cars, especially the rear of the Car where the engine links to the wing and the body of the Car.

Fast means speed and right now the fastest things on the road are the formula1 cars and the fact behind all their speed is their engine and aerodynamics.

Glossy means elegance, finess, shiny surfaces and glamour.

The crumple zone, p l a s m a studio, is an instalation and the word crumple refers to the technology used to combine the different parts of todays cars. This instalation combines structure, shiny surfaces and angles.

Personal Impression - Abstract Apply

Applying Mirror

Transforming Rules

If I want to make any object more dynamic than already is I add Lines in way that the the object or whatever becomes mores structured, it is like adding nerves in the surfaces of the body of a Car, it becomes alot stronger.

The Lines don't need to be vertical or horizontal but they need to create somekind of a grid, if someone tries to fold in the Lines then the structure becomes stronger than anything following a sequence of a lot of folds.

To make something fast I was thinking as the aerodynamic designers, I am opening holes in particular triangle shape. In areodynamics this makes the Car lighter and the Air flows better , so in my designs this reflects on the triangle areas with low opacity or no opacity.

To make the whole object glossier the best way is adding sahdes and full black or white surfases according the sequence contrasts from Lines and pall triangles .

Acording to all theese material I am designing and transforming a formula1 rear wing.

Sketch an allready existing formula1 rear wing.
