The Design
About Obscuro GT Budúcnosť Gt Retrovision
Obscuro je vízia toho, ako by vyzerali autá s motormi s prirodzeným nasávaním. Vzhľadom na rastúcu popularitu elektrických vozidiel a vôľu vyrobiť plne samohybné auto sa predpokladá výrazná zmena v automobilovej kultúre. Určite to bude niekoľko príkladov rekreácie identity automobilov. Tieto autá však nebudú také cenovo dostupné a budú mať viac klasiky, ako v prípade budúceho dizajnu, v súčasnosti existuje to isté: drahé chronometre, ktoré sa v digitálnej dobe stále cenia.

- Design Challenge
- The center of the project is the car itself. That's why Obscuro relied more on classic examples than modern ones. This philosophy was used to preserve the core idea of GT cars, namely the combination of luxury and high performance. Chrome elliments are sent to early motorsports, and the forms of these elements are referred to the silhouettes of those sports cars. The side lights are made small, since in the future cities will be much larger in area and much more illuminated. Therefore, the lights are transformed into exclusively silhouette forms, respectively, a neckline that encircles the front lights refers to cars of the past era, with bigger optics. Forming will rely more on strong and contrasting volumes than on lines, that have been popular for the last decade, but they are still present in the design to give a classic look from the future point of view. In addition, due to the number of electric vehicles, gasoline-powered cars will be rare, so to emphasize its heritage, the Obscuro front compartment has very elongated proportions, and in the rear view there are 3 large open pipes trimmed with chrome trim to emphasize again that this is not an electric car.
- Research
- Center of the project car itself. That is why Obscuro was based more on classic examples rather then on a modern one. This base of philosophy was used to save main idea of GT cars itself.

Third is vision of future, currently we see it in creation of car with much dramatic shapes and volumes rather than line usage. - Project Duration
