I had nearly forgotten the strange facility I saw in passing to the Old Town Haunt in October. I paused and traced it's Portal-esqe style through it's open windows. The windows only revealed some sort of stange shell you only see in sci-fi movies and video games. The Honda Advanced Design Studio is what I read, before I stepped into a night of fun scares.
Above is a basic outline of the facility.
What happens in it? New cars are designef for Honda. Arcrecord talks of robots milling models and a small team working in the place. I'd love to tour it, but it probably has to many corporate secrets. However, it's not that far from Art Center of College and Design which migh work with them on concepts. So the next time your in old town, don't wonder what's going on in there, because it's a secret and hardly anyone knows.
It would really be interesting to see the inner workings, that would be an engineer's dream. Unless you can get a high position within the company though, I don't see how it's possible.
ReplyDeleteThe outline makes it more intriguing because you know there's a lot more to it than that barren design. Unless it gets featured in the Discovery channel or something, we can only wonder.
ReplyDeleteThe design looks compelling. I am pretty sure that this space will be an excellent place to do car shows for Honda. I hope that Toyota Long Island would do the same.
