The Reflex Car

About This Project

Narrative object, constructed to be perceived in a perspective view, in high speed.

 

The object changes from dense to dispersed depending on the driver’s distance, speed and horizontal movement.
The Reflex Car is perceived as shining for every driver, as the reflex material glows in the individual driver’s car light.

 

The Reflex Car was given protection in the National Plan for the protection of highways, bridges and cultural relics assosiated with roads in 2002.
