Cadilac Estill Super Car Concept by Ondrej Jirec

Cadilac Estill super car project was born out of the idea of re-designing the classic Cadillac brand with futuristic touch. You can read Ondrej Jirec explanation about this project below.

The desired result was to create a concept that maintains clues from the history of the Cadillac brand and introduces a futuristic and fresh vision. The history clues were a fuselage suspended between two long body sides – a good example is the 1970 Cadillac Eldorado. Taking this pure form study, stripping down from all details, and taking it as a building theme for the whole concept, those were the main inspiration for the development of this concept.

The project was designed to respect these three rules:

1. Links to the history of the Cadillac brand, but is not “retro”.


2. It is recognizable as a modern Cadillac but pushes the design language further.


3. Looks futuristic and conceptual, but not as a video game car.

The interior layout is built around the driver experience. The passenger seat is pushed slightly back so the driver can reach the feeling of being in a true race car, inspired by the Cadillac Le Mans heritage.

House with a wooden skin by VARDAstudio

VARDAstudio have designed the “House with a wooden skin” in Platres, Cyprus.

Description from VARDAstudio:

House is located on a very dramatic hill in ethnical village of Cyprus. The facades and the roof of this house comprise one entity. The skin, consisting of Irokko wood cladding, is open in strategic places in order to let the environment in – “window to nature”. Maximizing this effect and functional arrangement the entry of the house is placed from the top of the hill. The exterior looks rather solid and enclosed using very traditional materials and details: local stone, wood, shutters. Though the main interior vertical axis – void creates continues emotional experience through all the house bringing the light in each floor.
