Concept car by Ross Lovegrove
for Renault

Milan 2013: British designer Ross Lovegrove will unveil a concept car he has designed for French car manufacturer Renault in Milan next month (+ movie).

“[Our] intention is to reveal nature’s underlying blueprints and transfer them into a new design language,” says Lovegrove.

“These methods are process-driven and aim to explore tessellation, performative surfaces, lightweight structures and new material behaviours rather than the literal translation of appearances found in nature into visual design,” he adds.

The car will be on display from 9 to 14 April 2013 at the Triennale di Milano exhibition.

Ross Lovegrove presented another futuristic car concept at Biennale Interieur last year, and has also suspended a silver spaceship from the rafters of Lille railway station.

A concept vehicle without a windshield and a fuel-efficient 3D-printed car are the latest stories about cars we’ve covered recently.
