Luigi Colani is a world-famous, legendary industrial designer from Germany who has been inventing futuristic vehicles since the mid-20th century. He used ergonomically sensible, futuristic designs featuring giant pods and provocative aerodynamics way before anyone even thought it possible. This extraordinary design was devised for a steam train in Soviet Russia. Want to see the airplane he designed for a Japanese company?

Pictured here is a concept for an airplane that he designed for Japan Airlines. Dark Roasted Blend has a great gallery of these and more images by the 80-year old futurist. Images by Colani.de
