BMW M1 Hommage


Today it seems to be the day of BMW concept designs. Just a few minutes ago, we have posted an article on the BMW M1 Hommage, a prototype that pays tribute to the original M1. Now, we are ready to show you the BMW M-Zero concept, a design by Maël Oberkampf. This is an independent project and Maël is not affiliated with BMW, just so we clear all the speculations from the beginning.


The direction the designer was going with this design was towards the Audi's R8, but the car has a lot of elements borrowed from the Aston Martin DB9, Mercedes-Benz and even the BMW 6 Series.

What it came out is a futuristic design that combines the luxury with the sportiness in a car.

Don't hold your breath on hoping to see a similar car in production, but as Mr. Oberkampf showed us, sky is the limit.

















One of the main attractions at the recreational and commercial vehicle show taking place in Dusseldorf, Germany, is the Caravon Concept, designed by a company called Merhzeller.

The caravan was designed by Christian Freisling and Theresa Kalteis and it’s motor home in a shape of a polygon. The idea behind the Caravon Concept is that any buyer has the ability to configure online their trailer by using as many as possible geometrical shapes and of course, based on their own taste.

The interior was designed with luxury in mind and wood is the predominant element. BMW is one of 30+ companies behind this project which draw a lot of attention during the show.

I have to say that I dig the idea, the design and even the luxury interior, but if I ever see the day that BMW puts their roundel on top of a caravan, then I know the world turned upside down.
