Four Fifths Design

Inspiration for the Creative Mind

Ecco Means Zero Emission Mobile Living

Designer: adNAU

So what’s this new beautiful vehicle? It’s called the Ecco. It’s an all-electric vehicle, with no emissions of its own, and can be quickly charged at a standard 240V station. This vehicle is also used for extended living purposes – its built-in photovotaic panels and solar sail roof means it can charge completely from the sun. That’s pretty awesome.

Young & United

Designer: Sean Metcalf

Young & United is an awareness created by the future generation of America according to Sean Metcalf. Times may prove difficult, yet through hardships there is an opportunity to grow stronger together.  The future of America depends on us: The Young & United. Whether or not you feel you might fit into this energy, I think we can all at least respect the well balanced designs that are associated. Simple, to the point, and well composed.

Evolution of Type

Designer: Andreas Scheiger

“It may even be that our roman alphabet had not one, but many beginnings, many centers, all culminating in one entity more or less composite. It is the history of all languages, however widely they now differ, to refer themselves to a common stock, a single fountainhead, and a word once common to a number of tongues may have survived in one only. Why, then, may not the means itself of transmitting language have developed in the same manner?” ~Frederic W. Goudy; The Alphabet and Elements of Lettering, 1918

Citroen Revolte Inspiration

Designer: Julien Famchon

I bring to you some concept art today from Julien Famchon. I haven’t featured any vehicular design in a while, so this ought to fill the need. This concept is both decently realistic in terms of potentially existing in our everyday world, as well as visually appealing as a piece of art. The colors are beautiful and the idea behind the deck monitor is really awesome – the ‘shards’ of material creating the deck form.

Loft Investments Identity

Designer: Lundgren Lindqvist

Loft needed an identity that would separate them from the bulk of their industry with a little bit of an added quirkiness and experimentation. The identity was designed in a manner that corresponds with the nature of Loft’s approach when developing new products: bold graphics, bright color, heavy typography, and great use of infographics.
