Features: In a sense, concepts represent a certain possibility of the future, not necessarily correct, but possible. Many people do not truly understand the designer's intentions. Is this just a gimmick to attract attention? Van Gogh, who sold only one painting in his lifetime, seemed to have no need for the world to understand his self-spirit. All forms leap and twist under the intense spiritual domination. When people can interpret his "bright," his life has already stopped beating for over a decade. For some geniuses, they are concepts of their time. True masters are solitary, thinking about issues that transcend this era. JMays' MA is labeled as retro, but remember, it is a concept car design in the purest sense. MA uses unprecedented materials such as bamboo, titanium, and aluminum alloys, powered by an electric motor. 96% of the car's materials are recyclable. Such materials actually reflect the concerns of top international designers like JMays about the future of cars. For those involved in car design, there is always a question: Have we taken too much from this world? The author worries that many works as impactful as MA will be forgotten too soon, only to be revisited by future generations decades later. The purpose of publishing this book is to gather concept works from the past decade, allowing people to revisit and re-examine the classics once again. How exactly should we understand concepts? I think it's best to quote JMays' remarks when introducing MA: It subverts people's traditional impressions of cars, offering no sense of repression or constraint, and proving that all the impossible is possible.
