Flying House

Unlike the movie "Up", you don't have to tie thousands of balloons to your home to make it fly. Wolke7 Future Flying House concept has envisioned the possibility of enjoying your live in the sky. If you don't have acrophobia, you would love enjoying the view while relaxing on the deck, feel the wind on your skin. It's a great combination of traveling yet it feels just like home. You can also say that this like a flying yacht, simply go everywhere anytime without compromise.

50th Anniversary Lamborghini Ferruccio Concept

Designed by Mark Hostler, a transportation design student at Staffordshire university, his Lamborghini Ferruccio Concept blends elements of design language from many different era's of Lamborghini. The steeply raked front screen and bonnet were inspired by the shape of the Countach, as was the super-wide rear end. The rounded shapes of the front and rear wings were inspired by the sleek, rounded, feminine lines of the Miura. Finally, the sharp nose and mirrors, and aggressive air intakes across the body and roof take their inspiration from Lamborghini's current "stealth fighter" design language.

The trademark of Lamborghini's flagship supercars has always been a large v12, but in the current climate of environmentalism, car manufacturers are now using smaller, turbocharged engines to meet emissions regulations without compromising on performance. The Lamborghini Ferrucciocombines these two ideas, using upcoming technologies in engine design and manufacture. It would use a v12, but a comparably small 5.0 liter unit, boosted by two turbochargers and using direct injection. The main difference however, is that the engine would be more subtle, and actuate its valves using pneumatic solenoids controlled by a computer. This combination of technologies would allow the Lamborghini Ferruccio's engine to still stick to the v12 Lamborghini philosophy, whilst still being both cleaner and more economical than a traditional engine.

The Lamborghini Ferruccio concept is a car designed to showcase both the past and future of Lamborghini, showing how new design and technologies blend seamlessly with the company's rich heritage and history.Lamborghini Ferruccio concept by Mark Hostler

Urban Trike

Seon Trike is a small and efficient concept transportation designed for urban environments. The lightweight body is made of aluminum, ABS plastic and carbon fiber. The mechanics systems are hidden from plain view and recharge the battery that will be used at night to turn on a pair of lights. In this way, even during the night, Seon Trike will still be visible due to its front and rear light for safety reason. This concept trike is still under development and the designer is hoping to make it commercially available in a couple of years.
