Yasushi Nakamuta, the lead designer who led the design of the third generation Mazda MX-5, was the first to begin to commit suicide by Mazda Shinari Concept: "Our challenge was to create an expression for the innovative and powerful energetic movements , something we had never tried before. We started with the development of the design around the image of a predator when it hits its prey, or stabbing movement in kendo, Japanese fencing, to express the accumulated time the force is released.

Translation of this first moment of "instantaneous movement promoted by Shinari Mazda Mazda design concept presented in a variety of challenges as well as designers and modellers working on the project. The process of a series of activities, which saw the inspiration of the team in different places. This included each team member creates sketches and sculpture-free clay models to represent their conceptions of "Kodo -. Seoul's move "And then continued to study the functional beauty is seen as a traditional Japanese crafts, and movement to witness the ancient Japanese martial arts.

As the team continued this exploratory process, Nakamuta focused on a force so strong it can bend a significant portion of the steel plate. Design Concept Mazda Shinari adds subtle touches and tension to create forms that express the movements smooth and powerful, resulting in an expression of "KODO - Soul Movement."

The hard, flash light forged steel with a Japanese sword is combined with wisdom and sensuality to express the highest quality.

Inside - Exploring a new approach to the unity between car and driver

When you create the concept interior Mazda Shinari goal was to design a significant premium cockpit that integrates its DNA intrinsic. While the exterior design, can be enjoyed through the movement from the inside, meanwhile, is experienced in a static, seated position. A commitment to significant mechanical function and excellent ergonomics have created a driver-oriented cockpit that expresses "the ultimate athletic space," while expressing a sense of momentum inside the car.

Enter the vehicle of the eye immediately drawn to the cockpit a driver-oriented around the driver. Angle to the surface and movement sets the tone for the entire interior.

Professional to fill the car's controls

Mazda's designers wanted to redefine the proximity of the instrumentation and control drivers through the establishment of an intuitive "to reach" areas, which Mazda calls "dedicated to driving ergonomics." All instruments and controls are designed and positioned to improve the driving experience. What separates the two isolated areas of the dashboard, the driver's cab is isolated from the rest of the interior and allows the driver to concentrate on the task of driving. Reinforce the message to the driver orientation, the design of basic and secondary echo of the most important tools for the shape of the cabin, which provides a clear view of the simple driver's seat. Sitting behind thick frame, three-spoke steering wheel the driver is sitting inside a single seat contoured for maximum comfort and support.

The principle of "driving ergonomics specialist" is also reflected in the car next generation human-machine interface (HMI). The availability of small electronic components has allowed designers Mazda Shinari concept of creating a floating three-dimensional GUI screen, a design element that represents the latest HMI technology. The system offers three modes. Business, pleasure and sport "

Fighting for the original and the original Japanese Mazda

With Mazda Shinari concept as the first step, Ikuo Maeda, general manager of Mazda's design division, is the creation of original designs that Mazda will be recognized throughout the world. He summarizes his determination as follows:

"My goal is to create models, which give meaning to people with pride and say," This is a Mazda design. "There is no need for Mazda to build cars for people who are only concerned with" style "and" trends ". If the job is a sports car or compact cars, are always working to create designs that evoke emotional response in people and I hope to continue to do the same I remain fully committed to developing models for people who love and admire the cars. And 'my personal belief that the only way to create models that are substantially access to people, and create models of their love, is whether people who create them are absolutely passionate about cars and are willing to make that a passion for designing corporate policies of expression.

"Also, I think it is very important to obtain information about the original design of Japanese cars in the Mazda. It is not only where the elements of traditional Japanese design of the car. I think that reflects the spirit of Japanese car models as part the practice of the subconscious. So when I see where this could lead to the future, my plan is to create cars that are immediately recognizable as the Mazda, even when viewed from afar My ultimate goal is to create a presence in the fans drive all over the world recognize and represent the originality of the Mazda Japan, Mazda and originality Futuremark is moving physically and emotionally -.. this is "Kodo - Seoul movement".
