Kouhei Kawakami - MADA Industrial Design

This project explores the possibilities of bringing back the emotional connection between users and their vehicles through a non-physical ownership system that integrates into the world and youth of 2025. This interior aims to create a flexile and customizable space for generation Z youth whilst working in a car sharing system for students in Melbourne 2025.

Registered users of this socialized car-sharing system Log in and book a vehicle when needed. The flexible interior can be personalised to suit each user’s needs and desires online much like a social networking page, and will upload when they log on to a vehicle. Users are encouraged to share a ride with peers, as the ride fair is split and the vehicle can remember and identify the user’s ‘friends’ and common destinations based on usage patterns.
