Global 7000 Marketing Prototype – Launched EBACE 2014 Wow 10 years, where have they gone! A fabulous collaboration with the design and engineering teams at Bombardier. Happy memories to look back on, with lots of stories for discussion over a few drinks! 20th May 2014, Bombardier launched the Global 7000 at its world premier in Geneva. Design Q had the pleasure of collaborating with the industrial design and engineering teams within Bombardier to engineer and manufacture the full-scale interior design prototype. At the time this mock-up was the largest purpose built in business aviation and featured 4 distinct living areas that can be customised to principal needs, design preference, and mission profiles. The interior cabin featured beautiful materials and details throughout, including polished and brushed metals, luxurious stone, rich hardwood floors and lustrous satin and gloss veneers complimented by the sumptuous silk carpet. The prototype left a lasting impression with meticulous attention to detail combining with exquisite craftmanship, exuding contemporary elegance and sophistication. After its launch the 7000-prototype travelled to many industry events, and due to the ability to transport the mock-up by road it could be displayed to customers in specific select environments and locations that were not accessible to traditional aircraft. As a tool the prototype proved invaluable in showing the world what the Global 7000, now named 7500, would become when it was certified in 2018. The last 10 years since the launch has been a whirlwind – in a good way! Not only has the Global 7500 gone on to great success and held within high regard within the industry, we have also had the pleasure of completing highly individual and customised private commissions on the platform. A great achievement and a real testament to all at the designers and engineers involved with the aircraft development programme and to Bombardier's commitment to develop new ground-breaking products. https://lnkd.in/ecXmKgTA #global #aircraft #prototype #mockup #interiordesign #interiors #privateaviation #transportdesign #industrialdesign #productdesign #ebace #ebace24 #aircraftinterior #productdevelopment #bizav #businessjet #bombardier

The ethos behind our Buzz eScooters is based upon our passion. We have drawn inspiration aesthetically from designs of 50+ years ago – Automotive design has lost some of its freedom over the years as manufacturing techniques have changed and mechanical packaging of fossil fueled vehicles have standardized. Identities of vehicles are not so pronounced or different from those offered by other manufacturers. One of the wonderful attributes of electric vehicles is the freedom of design available. There is no longer the need to have a fuel tank, an engine, a gearbox, a drive train, an exhaust system and a cooling system – all of which take up a lot of space – and the placement of these systems is not so flexible. Whilst we have nodded in respect to designs past – we firmly gaze forward in terms of technology and connectivity. The end result is a retro modern design which has an innate beauty and simplicity.

Creating simple solutions out of complex problems is what we strive for, and for us, this is the most rewarding thing about product design. The HPS motor system is the lightest in the world. It rides with no resistance and works with a standard road bike crankset. It is the culmination of years of design work and hundreds of miles of testing. The challenges have been huge and complex, but the product we have created seamlessly integrates with the frame and, above all, is simple.

🚆🔍 𝗨𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗶𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗚𝗲𝗻𝗶𝘂𝘀 𝗕𝗲𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻 🛤️💡 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗛𝗶𝗱𝗱𝗲𝗻 𝗜𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗻𝘂𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝗖𝗼𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗲𝗹𝘀: Ever noticed the unique shape of train wheels? They're not straight; they're conical. Let's delve into this brilliantly simple yet effective design. 🔧 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝘁 𝗜𝘁𝘀 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘁: The conical shape isn't a mere stylistic choice; it's a stroke of engineering genius. This design plays a pivotal role in keeping trains on track, literally! 🎢 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗡𝗼𝘁 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁?: Straight wheels on a straight track might seem logical, but it's the conical profile that allows trains to handle curves and uneven tracks with ease. It’s about stability and precision. 🔄 𝗦𝗲𝗹𝗳-𝗖𝗼𝗿𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗠𝗮𝗿𝘃𝗲𝗹𝘀: One of the most fascinating aspects of the conical design is its self-correcting nature. When a train veers off-centre on a track, the larger diameter of the wheel on the outside rail helps steer it back to the centre. 🛤️ 𝗦𝗺𝗼𝗼𝘁𝗵 𝗥𝗶𝗱𝗲𝘀, 𝗟𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗪𝗲𝗮𝗿: This ingenious shape minimises friction and wear on both the wheels and the tracks, ensuring smoother rides and longer-lasting infrastructure. 👷♂️ 𝗘𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗘𝗹𝗲𝗴𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗶𝗻 𝗦𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗰𝗶𝘁𝘆: Sometimes the most effective solutions are deceptively simple. The conical train wheel is a prime example of how thoughtful engineering can solve complex problems. 🤔 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗧𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀?: Fascinated by this slice of engineering brilliance? Ever wondered about other 'simple' designs that hide complex functions? Let's discuss and appreciate the unseen ingenuity in everyday engineering! #TrainEngineering #InnovationInMotion #TransportationTechnology #EngineeringMarvels #TrainTech 🚂✨🔩

🚗 Do you know what that crescent or half-moon cut-out on that brake pad is? It’s actually a smart design feature! These are directional brake pads they are engineered to reduce brake noise by controlling vibrations, ensuring a smoother and quieter driving experience. It’s all about enhancing your ride with thoughtful engineering! 🛣️ #CarKnowledge #BrakePadInsight

Principal factors to keep in mind before you commence any Road design works 🎯 Design speed 🎯 Design vehicle characteristics 🎯 Expected traffic volume 🎯 The level of service to be provided 🎯 Safety Which other factors do you consider to be principal for a balanced design? #civilengineering #highwaydesign
