Client Goals

General Motors Collaboration Project to create a fully autonomous car. How will it look? How will it function? How will the city make this available with non Autonomous Vehicles on the highways and city streets.

Adapt cities to the era of electric AV’s where the city and car work together to create a better user experience.

Manifesto

Named after GM’s founder himself William C. Durant, who completely revolutionized the car industry and transformed Detroit. Durand City’s end goal is inspired by his sentiment. Don’t just change the car, change the world for the car. Durant City is transforming the infrastructure on the world around it to better accommodate electric vehicles to reduce emmissions.

Inspired by the key words Mobility, Alchemize, and Balance with levels to keep pedestrians safe and cars moving freely.

The Interiors will accomodate the old and young in daily actions and emotions for more enlighting world.

Changes

Todays Cities have limited housing, overpriced markets, and are overpopulated.
