In the future, various types of Urban Air Mobility devices would be developed to fulfill the demands for rapid inter-city transportation. However, many recent unveiled UAMs are designed similarly to typical flying objects in terms of functional requirements, as in airplanes or drones. Meanwhile, the works of the designer Luigi Colani demonstrated creativity and novelty in the field of physiognomy and in the structures of airplane design, which have been considered mostly as emotional products, albeit their functional principles are in line with efficiency in organisms. In this study, both concepts and design characteristics of the works of Luigi Colani and recent Urban Air Mobility devices have been observed and analyzed based on their structures and physiognomies to derive implications for further UAM fuselage designs. The implications point to functional design concepts for UAM fuselage, such as streamlines derived from living organisms in nature, either as biplane structures or annular wings to maximize lift force. |
