Hong Kong in Venice
OMA's presence in this Biennale was surely felt; not only did the Dutch practice celebrate its founder's Golden Lion award and present an installation in the Sejima-curated section, but it also was involved in designing the proposed masterplan for arguably one of the largest commercial projects on show. Additionally, OMA were not alone in that project; British architect Norman Foster is also heavily involved in the same masterplan, all for Hong Kong's brand new West Kowloon Cultural District. Part of the Biennale's collateral events and situated centrally just outside the Arsenale, the Hong Kong in Venice exhibition offers a glimpse of the city's vision for its new state-of-the-art cultural district.

BMW's teaser renders of the two and four door Megacity Vehicle say little about what we can really expect from the MCV when production begins in 2013 but what we do know is that it will be a rear-wheel four-seater electric car that will be priced at a premium

Marten Wallgren (Sweden) The Grid is a concept for a car sharing system for 2025. The two-seater semi autonomously driven commuter car has the option for driving yourself or being driven. The vehicles within The Grid are covered with solar panels and together they create not only a grid for car sharing, but also an infrastructure for energy distribution.  The design was inspired by artist Eva Hild’s clay sculptures where holes and surfaces are connected in an endless transition exposing the chassis. When the commuter car is empty the cabin is thin for reduced wind resistance and little energy consumption. When a passenger embarks, the cabin folds down and creates the required seats.  The size of the vehicles means that they can be stored like supermarket trolleys where the batteries are then connected for an even distribution of energy. www.martenwallgren.com
