TIP OF THE ICEBERG
-"As a designer you do a vast amount of work never shown for the public, it could be early stages of exploration or design variants that never makes it all the way. Also in the automotive industryĀ we do a lot of strategic work, future studies, advanced concepts that in the end all are kept secret. Therefore the more joy when you finally get to share some of your work..."

MINI PRESS STORY:
The MINI JCW X DEUS one-off cars. Built as a pair - kindred in spirit, opposite in energy. One born of the coast: shaped by surfboards, sea spray, and the stripped-back rhythm of beach life. The other is forged on the track: lean, fast, and fuelled by a love of speed and precision.

THE CLOUD
A bite of Culinary Nomadism
First welcoming in the journey is an illuminated quarter circle that completes itself to a full moon by the floor and window reflections. The Moon animates and sets the mood for a wonderful evening.
Redesign of former 2-star restaurant "EssZimmer" located in BMW Welt Munich. The new restaurant "THE CLOUD by KƤfer" is a true experience in fine dining and as a guest you will experience "Culinary Nomadism" as chef Jens Madsen and his team travel the world for inspiration and gourmet spices that they later combines with high end local produced ingredients.
-"We wanted the guest to experience a journey from the first arrival. By designing super signs along the way of the evening."

Prism Kitchen
Transparent and reflective glass panels create a prism part of the kitchen that can be viewed from inside the restaurant.
RYDER CUP
-Not often you get to raise the Ryder Cup trophy in your own hands, something just a few of us golfers have had the pleasure to do:)
This was a thrilling project spinning out of the BMW electrified wingsuit developed together with Peter Salzmann. A joy to get to know Peter and his task was now to deliver the presious Trophy for the 43 Ryder Cup attached to his chess flying down towards the crowd.
Challenge here was to create a case protecting the trophy while meeting all saftey aspects. The result is a stunning lightweight 3D printed tech-sculpture in champange color that opens up as a butterfly.
Enough said now back to the driving range...

X6
-The BMW X6 is truly a pioneer, a creater of its own class with roots going back to the X-coupe concept car 2001.
When starting sketching on the 2nd generation X6 back in 2010 it was important to keep some of the unmistakenly X6 features / The fast Coupe roof line / The powerful stands etc. Tried to focus on the muscular and emotional surfacing of the car but it was also a clear goal to mature the vehicle and create a real premium product.
2015, five years later my first car was launched at big event in Spartanburg USA, honor to work with so many talented designers and engineers on this project under the lead of Adrian van Hooydonk.

CENTERFOLD
Z60
-A 60foot Luxury Sailing Yacht with visual BMW DNA.
This project started not long after I have joined the BMW Group and Designworks. At this time Chris Bangle was leading BMW Design, must say Chris passion and energetic positiv vibe has been a pleasure to work for over the years. After a meeting between Chris, DW and the owner of Vanhool busses, a new project was born!
The result had to be bold stand out from the rest and express BMW Formlanguage which at the time was the famous "Flaming Surfacing". We used a flamed light catching surface in the hull to break up the visual height and a concave roof of the deckhouse itself to serve as a seat when the yacht is on a heel.
Truly an inspiring project to work on and to sail a boat you been part of creating is a special experience.
Thanks to DW Colleges, Zeydon team and Chris for this oportunity!
