Style Porsche x Marc Fornes: Episode 3 – The Mission
I’m very excited to collaborate with Porsche to build my version of a two-car garage it’s a brand where I believe in that Legacy the Heritage that idea of always refining going to viser is to some extent an Oly Grail it’s a unique Opportunity wow wow wow where to start this place is just full of history there is always that very first car and that very last car of the series here we have the very first electric one I think it’s a very important Milestone incredible just such a unique
Treat visar is located near stutgart in a small neighborhood the chance to not only experience but also discuss with the designer is such a stimulating moment so Mark here it is the new Maran first of all uh proportions keep the character of the car but still visualize very clearly
That this is not a combustion engine anymore the pit of the roof is flat and exactly we are really focusing on our light signature so if you stand in front of the car it should have this expression of being very focused most of everything has very specific function and his aesthetic is
Driven out of that exactly it’s not really styling it’s really design and the close connection to function to make I’m I’m still looking for an element of the car that is both you know functional and yet you can stare at it and and start to have different degree of that definition you
Talk about onto the surface I mean there’s uh there’s one part let’s say little detail on the side a kind of new Surface I could show you hello how are you we like this pattern but for you from an architectural point of view it has to make sense for the structure as
Well so it has a little functionality in terms of mention it it had a bit of stiffness if you into the surface and for us it’s the same we’re looking into something you know that kind of coing we always want to have this kind of tension tension yet continuity into the
Surface yeah when you mention the shift of curvature those lines you go from Flat to curve to crease we actually need it as well you create then the stability you need yes that’s what allow us to go so large big and yet Remain the thickness of a sheet of metal the things
I have shown you in this pattern and structure you think that’s something you can work with we love that aspect that it’s both you know functional on one end give stiffness it reacts to light so it’s always different it’s entertaining so I think it’s an excellent start there’s a lot of exchange happening
Right now is that only to that Bas pl we always test if he works as a set of power
There are many parallels between architecture and car design. We brought New York City-based architect Marc Fornes to Weissach, Germany, to get a first look at the new all-electric Porsche Macan and to get started on the collaboration.
