Cutting-Edge Design

Richard Jenkinson
On the other side of the spectrum, Richard Jenkinson devised 'Edo', a bio-inspired sports motorcycle. Taking cues from Japanese material science and Origami, the ethanol-powered sport bike proves it is possible to design a high-powered vehicle whilst remaining environmentally aware. Aspects of the design that stand out include the rear fan-like creations on the tail that move up and down depending on the speed at which the bike travels. "The wings accentuate the visual impact by extending fully upwards," Jenkinson described, "Exaggerating the design like a sculpture."
