Single-person Jet Seaplane – A Revolutionary Design Concept
This single-person jet seaplane falls into the same category as jet skis – a powerful, noisy, and thrilling machine that stirs both fascination and irritation. While some may find it disruptive, the user experiences the freedom and excitement that comes with it, hoping to impress those around them.
The project started as a simple sketch and was later developed in 3D. Over time, the concept has been refined and improved. In April 2014, I revisited the design and decided to enhance the details for a more polished final result.
Automotive Design Workshops • David Hilton i Köln.
In August 2010, I attended a five-day intensive design course with renowned car designer David Hilton in Cologne, Germany. The first two days focused on rapid sketch techniques, while the last three days were dedicated to building either a clay model or a 3D digital model. It was during this course the idea for the jet seaplane was born.
