Car Design of Chinese Tea

Atmosphere Build Automobile

The Car Design of Chinese Tea, created by Hongxiang Yang, is a unique concept that combines the art of tea ceremony with automotive design. Inspired by the three artistic values of visual art, performance art, and music art in the tea ceremony, this design targets tea culture lovers and individuals interested in Chinese tea culture. The design incorporates the stylistic element of "bump" and cleverly integrates it throughout the design. The focus of the design is to maximize the use of space and coordination, as it is positioned as a small two-seater coupe.

The realization of this design involves the use of internet driving technology in automotive interior design, the application of artificial intelligence and human engineering, and the utilization of different materials to create a harmonious collision. The exterior features UV paint board, while carbon fiber material is used for the details. The interior is adorned with black purple sand, creating a unique and luxurious ambiance.

The Car Design of Chinese Tea measures 3900mm in width, 925mm in depth, and 850mm in height. Its compact size allows for easy maneuverability in urban environments.

Operating the Car Design of Chinese Tea is designed to be user-friendly. The process involves entering the scene, opening the doors, switching to driving mode, allowing friends to join the ride, transitioning to unmanned mode, and enjoying a peaceful tea session. The mirror and lights can be controlled to enhance the driving experience in different environments.

The project for the Car Design of Chinese Tea began in Turin in January 2016 and was completed in Rimini in June 2016. It was showcased at the Shejipi Young Designer 2016 event in July 2016.

The design process involved extensive research, including brainstorming, pre-survey analysis, trend forecasting, inspiration extraction, sketching, rendering, 3D modeling, human engineering analysis, and car model production. The goal was to create an automotive interior design that is both aesthetically pleasing and functional.

The Car Design of Chinese Tea faced the challenge of integrating existing resources with the designer's personal ideas and forms of induction. Through careful investigation and analysis of automotive interior design theoretical knowledge, the design was refined to be easily understood and accepted by the public.

Overall, the Car Design of Chinese Tea is a testament to the fusion of traditional Chinese tea culture and automotive design. Its unique styling and focus on interior and exterior coordination make it a standout concept. Additionally, the incorporation of artificial intelligence technology aims to create a more peaceful and mindful driving experience, reducing the occurrence of traffic accidents.
