TOP 5 CONCEPT BUS DESIGN (NEW WAY OF PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION)

1- Cozy new face of iconic British double Decker, if you have ever been in London, you should have been already meet with classic double deckers. This boy has been designed by Heatherwrick studios . It looks hot with that cross window thing, after 50 years of usage of old iconic double deckers , I guess it right time to change them with something new cool and more green.

2- Largest bus for overcrowded country china,I am not sure is designing longest bus for solving public transport problem of China. I suppose that Chinese people prefer bicycles for transportation , I think they should continue their habit for better and environmental friendly china.The Superliner can carry more than 300 people wow

3- The credo e-bone concept bus design by Hungarian designer. I do not know the meaning the credo e-bone but if I were the designer I would choose different name like snail this pretty snail like vehicle is zero emission and powered by hydrogen fuel cells

4- Ikarus bus concept from Ukraine , student project for tourists , at least they say so not the best design but it looks okay for me as you designing like this kind of big vehicles Is not easy .Furthermore being successful is harder.

5- Here is an interesting design , it is 100 percent green, but I can be little tired having a seat in this bus. Casimir Sienkiewicz and his team invented this vehicle. 10 of 14 passenger have to be available for properly working travel experience.

TRUMPH TOWERS BY BRIGITTE WEBER ARCHITECTS IN ISTANBUL

              Trumph towers has constructed in financial heart of Istanbul , Sisli . If you have ever visited istanbul , you should know that istanbul has a strong historical and cultural urban texture.Although in recent days in Turkey there was a debate about protecting Constantinople texture and aspect of city. Recently built skyscapers and towers threats city, historical views and turns it to industrial trash. My opinion is , Istanbul`s urban planning should be horizontal instead of vertical.And city has a terrible traffic problem, i hope urban planners havent miss that point.By the way design is classic 21 century uber dumper, glass and mirror style,nothing really interesting instead of use of technology.I dont want the blame desing manager ,the architecture is well done,but i am not sure istanbul need that kind of another towers.The building designed and consturucted by Weber Architects

VODAFONE PORTUGAL CENTRAL QUARTERS

As you know Vodafone is one of the leading mobile communication company in the world, Vodafone is available in my country too and i am really happy about their services. As all super big companies Vodofone is need of well-designed showcase too. I guess this building will be showcase of their company. This modern building constructed in Porto second big port city of Portugal and designed by architects José António Barbosa and Pedro Guimarães.Design of the building is not static, it is quite dynamic and asymmetric .I am not sure it suits urban architecture but it is not a big deal ,nowadays all this kind of designs looks like came from alien space,As a designer i can say that this is the trick for a well design . People should not understand how you build or design your product or building.Furthermore , some design critics said that , face of design should had influenced so bad by works of Zaha Hadid and Ron Arad. I do not think so, this public figures are popular because of their networks and fame not because of their genius.Blaming every designer to influenced by bla bla is not appropriate.If you can make some research you can find that this way of design is called maximalism , and this is not invented by Ron Arad or Zaha Hadid. To sum up maximalism means new minimalism ,rich and pure.By the way this is good example for maximalism

MEET HAKAN GURSU LATEST WINNER OF GREENDOT AWARDS

              As you know technological explorations came from generally from 1st world countries like west Europe and north America .But design discipline is more democratic from science .Sometimes one simple idea in art and design may  change the big picture.Nowadays Even 3rd world countries like Turkey ,India and China can do special things in design scene.Indian design society is  bold too. Hakan gursu is just another strong designer from that third world  country Turkey. It seems that Hakan Gursu is well educated , I am really curios about how he improve
himself in that kind of place, I mean I do not really know how is design education in middle east.You know art and design disciplines can not live in conservative places, they need free atmosphere.I don think middle east and radical muslim country is best for that kind of atmosphere .To be honest I was have no hope about Turkish designers until I have meet Hakan Gursu.

              

             I checked his portfolio , there are lots of good and bad designs and too many boring design sketches which are pretty good.And he has more than 50 awards from really good design communities. I really appreciated this guys red bull attitude  and passion for design. His latest awards is from green dot which is really prestigious award. He hadwon second prize with in transportation category by his FOSCAT 32 design.It is simply folding solar catamaran  . It is esthetically terribly poor , renders are   unsatisfactory  .I do not want to believe that it had done by a product designer or computer graphic artist. It offers reducing the CO2 oscillation . The system also offers renewable energy which is not really big deal.

              I really do not understand why they give this prize to this guy.Design looks bad and looks like fake green design. Let me explain what is fake green design. It is the way of showing something which is not green or sustainable ,green friendly. To sum up I do not like the design both in functionally and visually , it can be
really good example of fake green design . I did not really hope better than this from a 3rd world country like Turkey.Last worlds to Turkey , I know it is off topic but please stop aggression against Kurds and Armenians and admit Armenian genocide....

DALIAN LIBRARY DESIGN IN CHINA

                    
                   With the technological uppercut ,human kind can build ,unbelievable buildings. Dalian library design by 10 design is one of them ,it did not built yet , I do not really know how they would construct this kind of building but it looks really amazing.At least it looks really good in render. Nowadays computer aided presentations are really important too.With the help of computer graphics architects can show design much more appealing

                 The usage of texture in this library design is mature , the form of building is amorphous , it is hard to construct these kind of thing even in these days.Relation with urban space is really successful.But I guess usage is of negative space is not best ,I did not see the floor plans but my personal opinion is this building is too high for a library ,it is approximately 650 centimeters I really do not want to be in that kind of library , it is not the best place for reading book

.

                        I liked the movement in right and left faces they are really rich. I hope this library fits the Chinas new modern face .But whenever I thought the worker who works on this construction I can not prevent myself  to disgust this design.

Otherwise recently Chinese governors has built lots of  space age style architectural buildings .I am really curios how they will fill these building  they told us this is a library and media center.I hope they can find freely written books or other materials to fill this building with books and other materials. Otherwise it is pointless to spent lots of effort to build thiskind of library . I think Chinese governors miss the point creating a library.
