CONSUMER TRENDS.
The 20th century has seen some major changes in the
economies which define the way we live. The 21st century is
more of a opposite of what happened during the agricultural
and industrial economies. The term COLLABRATIVE
CONSUMPTION is just something we do daily.
Automotive industry is also seen this change recently.
CURRENT TRENDS IN AUTOMOTIVE INTERIOR
The current
automotive interior
concepts define
only the way we
would travel in the
future but the
major problem lies
in the fact that
many of the
concepts have a
very traditional
take on what cars
of the future could
look like.
THE SHIFT IN IDEOLOGIES
EXTERIOR DESIGN
INTERIOR DESIGN
“A AGE WHERE INTERIOR DECTATES THE EXTERIOR”
DESIGN INTENT.
To design a grand tourer in a autonomous future where the Intent was to
design a emotional space with a attributes of a compact house or a personal
space which is very emotional and relaxing for the mind and body.
CHOOSING A BRAND
WHY VOLVO?
SAFETYSWEDISHFAMILY ORIENTED
Designed around you
Stemming from Scandinavian Origins and safety is
the perception of Volvo being Family Oriented,
rather than being business oriented or driver
oriented.
Less Machine and More Human.

SPACE CHARACTERSTICS
The space had to have a very cosy feeling unlike
cars of today which have a very functional
interior, I wanted to create a very emotional and
cosy space as good as being in a house on
wheels.
A space generally says a lot about how you
feel and brings in good vibes into our daily
lives. I wanted the space to reflect the same
values of a house.
CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT
INSPIRATION SCULPTURE DIFFERENT POSTURES UNUSUAL DIVISION OF SPACE
Unusual division of space leading in a
personal usage space and a sleeping area.
Reading nook or a personal
cosy space
LAYOUTS
CONCEPT LAYOUTS
The space layout 1 had a problem of accessing the bed for the
other passenger. As it was disturbing 2 people in order to get out
of the car.
The space layout 2 had a central access to the space
but it made the access to the children's area a little
difficult and also the couple had to sleep apart. Giving a
feeling of less bed space
LAYOUTS
The space layout 3 had from both the sides of the car
but here the car was becoming too huge and wide also,
I wanted to have a normal seating posture too which
none of the previous layouts had.
The space layout 4 had from both the sides of the car
but here the posture was divided into two resulting in a
big chunk of the hammock folding up which was not a
good idea as either both passengers could sleep or sit
There was no personal opinion or choice. Also the car
was again becoming wide.
The 4th layout solved the problem of seating position so
the next step was to make the package feasible without
losing the core idea. The corridors were dropped as the
seating position was normal now and the single huge
chunk of flap was divided into two which made it a easy
to use, so also access to the children's area was now
possible
FINAL LAYOUT
TECHNOLOGY USED
Hammock style seating comes With zero
Pressure points.
30 degree angle is postulated to give the
brain optimal blood circulation rather than
congestion and also allows for more
unobstructed breathing.
The zero-pressure point ergonomics and the ability to
slightly elevate your upper body are the keys to a
healthy sleep that no flat surface or mattress can truly
provide.
WELLBEING ASPECT
The lower space had a reading nook and a space for the children which could be used by them to play or just read a
digital magazine sitting besides the glass door.
SKETCHES
SWISS KNIFE PHILOSOPHY
The swiss knife philosophy is applied in
aircraft first class compartments, which
believes in giving as much amenities and
functions in a very compact space,
Here I kept in mind the bedding,
accessory box, refrigerator and digital
magazines reading lights which were
needed for entertainment and spending
some good time on board.

Here’s what he finds! The VOLVO NOOK, A perfect blend of personal
space with a un matching comfort and seating dynamics in a moving
car.
