Megalopolis X Shenzhen Super Headquarter

QUAD studio Shenzhen Super Headquarter Futuristic Monday, 2 November 2026

Megalopolis X

Megalopolis X will be the new center in the heart of the greater bay area, close to the border between Hong Kong and Shenzhen. The master plan integrates architecture with pedestrian networks, parks and public spaces. Above and below ground transportation networks are being planned by maximizing connectivity in the city. A below ground sustainable infrastructure network will provide systems for district cooling and automatic waste treatment in a seamless manner. The aim is to establish a creative master plan framework of how cities will be designed in the future.

Swimcar Modular Amphibious Evacuator

Kun Wu Modular Amphibious Evacuator Futuristic Saturday, 31 October 2026

Swimcar

Swimcar is a modular amphibious vehicle designed for flood-prone cities. The vehicle combines a sealed electric chassis with an independent cabin made of carbon fiber composite. A magnetic-hydraulic interface holds the two parts together during road use. When sensors detect rising water, the cabin is released and floats as a life raft, so passengers remain above the surface. An eco-benefit module purifies water through aeration and filtration while the vehicle travels. In-wheel motors provide propulsion on land and in water.

Haidongqing Gas Detection Drones

Mingxi Li Gas Detection Drones Futuristic Friday, 30 October 2026

Haidongqing

Haidongqing is a gas detection drone designed for industrial monitoring and emergency response. The form takes inspiration from the diving posture of an eagle, with lines that suggest speed. A modular structure holds gas sensors and a real-time data transmission system. The body is made with three-dimensional printing, computer controlled precision machining and carbon fiber composite molding, which keeps the drone light and strong. The drone measures 480 mm in width, 400 mm in length and 100 mm in height. A handheld device controls flight, while a display and alarm system report gas levels.

X Transport Cargo Transportation

Tianyang Yuan Cargo Transportation Futuristic Wednesday, 28 October 2026

X Transport

X Transport is a concept cargo transport vehicle designed for Antarctic research stations. The design is inspired by penguins, which slide on their bellies to move quickly across ice and snow. The shell is made of metal, and the two skis at the base are made of high-strength carbon fiber. Propulsion units at the top and the tail use vector thrust technology to control speed and direction. The cargo cabin is held by an X-shaped structure that can be raised and lowered to adjust the center of gravity. The aim is faster delivery of supplies.
