This project provides a vehicle design that is based on the principles of modularity and equipped with the functionality of flying and water surfing, which gives an opportunity to have a transport system beyond the conventional one. The design is a car with a detachable greenhouse that turns into a drone and a surfing pod with four and two wings, respectively. This innovation meets the need to explore while including safety measures that users can use to escape dangerous situations and enjoy freedom.

The Design Business Index (DBI) is a merit-based rating system and professional directory founded to address one of the design industry’s biggest challenges: the difficulty of reliably assessing a designer’s true capabilities before a project begins.

By featuring only those who have demonstrated excellence under these stringent standards, DBI ensures a carefully curated pool of top talent, where clients can make confident, data-driven decisions about creative partnerships.
Beyond its directory, DBI offers a comprehensive DBI Credibility Suite™ designed to help designers and studios stand out in an overcrowded market. Each DBI-rated professional receives authoritative certificates, digital assets, and rating logos that validate their skills and attest to their proven creative excellence. These tools seamlessly integrate into websites, social media, and marketing materials—reinforcing trust, credibility, and, ultimately, market value.
