France’s “designer” garage

To commemorate its new executive sedan, the C6, French car giant, Citroen, recently commissioned the design of a wild £112,330 ($160,000 Cdn.) garage for the car — some three times its asking price. Design firm, Neutral, which also penned the über-cool Munich football stadium, says the “designer” garage is intended to “envelop and present the C6 in a truly unique and independent environment.” The flowing design is made of “light transmitting concrete,” and transparent sliding doors. The doors are a reinforced, environmental friendly polycarbonate with coloured LCD layers, providing an opaque setting when the owner switches it to private mode. There’s no word on whether a real life example will be built.
