Green Urban Transport

A team of RISD Industrial Design students and a team of Brown University Engineering students researched and explored vehicles that we need in different parts of the world which face different challenges. We compared lifestyles of Kisumu in Kenya and Providence, RI and decided to design a biodiesel vehicle,Codathat fulfills the different needs for both.

My role in Design Management Group was to write a business plan for a real life application and to create a brand identity by coming up with the vehicle name. I was in charge for the final presentations to summarize the 12 week journey in the most effective way. I was also the official photographer / blogger to document the process.
