BMW R nineT has gained a lot of popularity from the very first introduced on the market which can be seen at Wheels & Waves. Edgard Heinrich, Head of Design at BMW Motorrad, explains how that result has made the team very proud. This time, he wanted to create something special for the festival, something that no one has seen from BMW Motorrad yet. The result is BMW Motorrad Concept Lac Rose, it’s based on interpretation of the bike that won Paris-Dakar Rallye in 1985, the design is fully in line with the spirit of Wheels and Waves and its visitors, placing BMW R nineT into a new context to display BMW’s passion, heritage, and imagination, and what a few modifications can achieve.

The off-road qualities are unquestionable, this bike is really cool and laid-back roadster, rider can simply leave the street and ride on a dirt track into the unknown. The windshield has been designed just like typical rallye equipment, including headlamp design with high mudguard, and large fuel tank, and a short rallye seat bench, just like the legendary bike. It is equipped with longer suspension, spoke wheels with studded tires, nice color combination of red on alpine white, and the number of 101.

Outdoor adventurers, you can enjoy warm meal anywhere, thanks to technology from Wayv. Introducing Adventurer Portable Food Heater that works just like a microwave. This revolutionary technology has transformed microwave oven into a hand held device, allowing you to heat food and beverages anywhere.
Adventurer is a safe food-heating device that emits no toxic fumes or carbon monoxide, the compact size makes it very convenient to carry, it is lightweight (less than 1.5kg) and fits in a rucksack. When you are out there, feeling cold, simply heat your food or drink using Adventurer, the RF LDMOS Transistors would heat it in less than 5 minutes.

Featuring digital control on the lid, you can start or stop the heating process. The display also informs you about any remaining power. This device is designed with interchangeable quick charging power packs, it has 30 minutes operational time, which means, it can provide you up to 6 hot meals or drinks. We believe Adventurer would be a handy device for disaster relief situations since it is compatible with solar charging panels, ready to use in all environments.

Le Mans 2030 Concept Car has been designed for Michelin Design Challenge 2017, it aims to make car racing much more interesting. David Voltner, the designer, believes that due to the complexity of this sport, slowly but sure, people will lost interest in it. That’s why, in order to attract more people to celebrate car racing sport, David has come up with this concept racing car. You can read his explanations below.
My topic for Le Mans 2030 is FORWARDING INFORMATIONS TO SPECTATOR, because the number of motorsport fans decreases rapidly every year. I believe that it is caused by the complexity of this sport. Average fans simply don’t know why certain things are happening on the race track and they often feel confused = which results into the lost interest. I am convinced that FIA, in order to rescue this beautiful sport will have to make regulation changes and make it much more transparent and catchy for all the fans to retain or broaden the fan base.
Designer : David Voltner
There are three pivotal innovations in my concept which I believe would make racing much more understandable and reduce the steep learning curve which motorsport fans must get over initially.
1. Specially designed rear which works like parachute – when the driver hits brake pedal it opens and increases the aerodynamic drag rapidly. As a consequence, the deceleration will become breathtaking.
2. Tires are one of the most significant variables in performance. Any driver can loose up to 10 seconds during a single lap. However, it is very hard to read the tire conditions for the fans because they might not understand that the driver is having some difficulties or that there is something wrong with the tires. Therefore I have developed special tires with 4 layers and each of the layers is created in a different color. This in turn indicates the exact level of tire wear during the race.
3. Wheel rim with revolving flaps that could work like an aerodynamic brake and a cooling system at the same time for the electric wheel hub when the need arises.

Balance is a pair of concept earphones that are purely designed with the Braun DNA in mind. It’s a design proposal for the company that represents Braun’s clean lines, perfect proportion and beautiful aesthetic in products.
The smooth finish of the aluminum body with the polished chamfered edge and the small branding etched below it. Braun Balance are a new direction in the earphones market, not only for sound but also to for the fine details within the design.
Designer : Chris Rackett
Simplicity runs solely through the design from the earphones aluminum housing and branding application. To the volume rocker with its minimal and clean design, allowing the user to easily lower or heighten the sound. Furthermore the use of a tangle free chord eliminates any long winded untangling of earphones in public, allowing instant use and no time wasting, so that you can get back to listening to
your favorite artists.
On the whole Balance brings Braun back into the consumer electronics sector and follows Braun’s design values. These earphones are the balance of great sound quality and the beautiful attention to detail and design that Braun has followed for many years.
