Description:
When West Meet East. Basic idea of my design is a concept city car for next generation Chinese market. Chinese car design hasn’t own design visional language because there hasn’t any automotive culture in China. My design base on the analysis of the European and American car design visional language. (Now knife-edge design is popular in the world). It also has character of east culture. Chinese traditional architectures and Chinese Buddhism lion have inspired my Design. I use east Character curve and graphic to describe a modern concept city car, because it is easier for the Chinese people accept this design by using the Chinese culture and the Chinese religion and philosophy.
