While other car companies are claiming their vehicles are environment-friendly, product designers Kenneth Cobonpue and Albrecht Birkner took it a step further by making the world’s first roadster made from bamboo and rattan.The Phoenix concept car was built mostly by biodegradable materials in a span of 10 days. Its purpose is to make vehicles “green enough” once it has outlived its purpose.
“This project attempts to unveil the future of green vehicles using woven skins from organic fibers mated to composite materials and powered by green technology,” Cobonpue stated during an interview with Inhabitat.
