Villa on the Cliff

The object in space

The "Villa On The Cliff" was a project "container" very large made in 2014 for the customer WFRIC
( Wong Fong Research Innovation Center) department in Singapore.
Epta has created individually all the design elements in the scene: furnishing, lighting and decoration ... To contextualize and present all these products has been chosen to create a villa complete in every little details. Here some 3d images

The design is everyday life

The objects that surround us are discrete objects, that do not shout, but with their simplicity and their warmth contribute to create a cozy environment

Light describes the shapes

The heart of the villa on the cliff is the living room.
This living room and all the objects in the scene, lives by the light coming in through the large windows and skylights on the roof.
The double height ceiling and a view of the sea give the viewer a sense of infinity.

The obsessive attention to detail

It's the attention and care of every little detail and single object that make the finish of every room desirable. Everything is important !

Office Chair, BOSS

Ergonomy and style in the office.

In 2014 it was required to development an innovative Design for a office chair with a strong character of aesthetic and functional solution. Epata answered by proposing the chair "Boss".
Cast aluminum for the frame, wheels spherical Teflon and memory foam padding.
As with other subjects of design made for WFRIC (Wong Fong Research Innovation Center) Singapore, the Chair Boss was then integrated into the project “Villa On the cliff”.

Straight and technical lines.

Rigorous lines draw the precise shapes of this chair. Llinear trajectories gives a highly technical tone to the overalla design of this chair

Detail o2

As for the frame of a bicycle, also the frame of this chair is to be left exposed.
The mechanical components are integrated to the supporting frame without compromise.
The spherical wheels made in Teflon and stainless steel ensure sliding and durable.

Light-ONE

The dream that flies on the water

The project "Light-One" was made in 2013. A direct contact the head of the design of Light Design NewYork City. Epta has been involved in:
- Design conceptual dell'l'architettura interior spaces,
- The realization of mathematical style,
- Design and 3D modeling of the different elements of decor
- Production of all the virtual images of the exterior and interior

On the wawes

Penciled by the head of design at Light NY, Fabio Ferrante, born the main lines of this dream boat
The stylistic goal was to create a vehicle that combines the performance of a real powerboat, with the luxury and charm of a yacht of 42m !

Main Deck

The upper deck is an extremely large and sunny.
The wide windows hide a sophisticated technology that allows glass to change the transparency (switch from clear glass in dark glass) to enjoy the view of the sea at 360 °

Enlarge the “sea experience”

The search for a sea experience even greater pushed the team to imagine an outside deck that doubles the surface walk able, creating two balconies overlooking the sea on the sides of the Yacht to be enjoyed during stop.

Concept car Vittoria

Passion, reflexes and wheels

Working closely with the Head of Design of UP Design (Turin, Italy) Epta has contributed to the conception of the aesthetic concept for the design of Vittoria Concept Car presented in 2012 at the Salon of the automobile in Qatar.
Active part in the definition phase of the exterior, implementation of mathematical aesthetic.
Creation of official images for print and digital
Creation of technical explanatory video of the technologies used.

Paint over reference 3d model

The definition phase of the aesthetics of a vehicle can be approached by balancing and simultaneous use of different techniques.
Starting from a draft made in 3d, Epta has displayed many possible variants for every detail or component of the car with paint over.
This technique llowing you to appreciate the final aspect of some details without invest time to model them in 3D from the beginning.

Teaser Images

Epta has realized all the official images that were delivered to the press and the teaser images that anticipated the official presentation.

The Show

The car was presented at the Motor Show in Qatar and the Museo Dell 'Automobile in Turin (Italy) in 2012

Orbital Frame

New concept for the two wheels

The bicycle Orbital Frame is a project of concept design for the development of a sport bike made for WFRIC (Wong Fong Research Innovation Center) Singapore.
Lenticular wheels, the absence of the air chamber into the tire, steering system tire high precision without direct connection with the front wheel. Later he was asked to provide an electric version.
Hepta managed the project from the concept phase to identify the nature of the project, the creative phase with drawings and sketches exploration, modeling and pre-engineering ...
presentation of the final concept through 3d rendering

Sketch research

The bicycle is a very delicate project.
More than other vehicles, its geometry is related to the geometry of the human body.
Working around the "hard points" of the human body and mechanical devices Epata studied design aesthetic and functional.
Immediately you recognize innovative and aggressive style that characterizes this bicycle

A concentration of solutions

Final Design, 3d Rendering Maxwell render

The project "Orbital frame" contains many innovations.
From without an inner tube wheel, the absence of a front fork, the steering system with the pneumatic circuit, flat batteries integrated into the lenticular wheel ...

All these innovations have been recognized as plausible by the engineers of robotic automation of WFRIC of Singapore.

Close up Pneumatic connection

Epta has realized the very detailed model of the bicycle "Orbital Frame" for the realization of virtual images, but also for engineering studies preliminary to the construction of a physical model.

Advance Design

Design for the imagination – Mecha Design

The Advance Design project highlight the ability of EPTA to speak to the entertainment world and present to then projects for the field of science fiction movies, video games or toys.
The mastery of the techniques work of industrial design meet the creative techniques of concept artist to create robor or vehicles with a design evolved, and the spectacular result

The creative ability of EPTA is expressed at maximum even in making products of absolute fantasy.
The public is becoming increasingly demanding and consequently the stories must to become more and more credible.
The robots of EPTA are characters that, in aesthetic form and how they present themselves, demonstrate a high quality standard.
