Smart Transportation

Reimagining mobility through human-centered design.

Mobility is no longer defined by speed alone.
It is defined by how seamlessly movement fits into everyday life.

At Formeta Design, we design intelligent transportation systems that are intuitive, scalable, and deeply human-centered. From vehicles and interiors to shared mobility and infrastructure, we help shape transportation experiences that align with the rhythms of modern cities and evolving user expectations.

Designing movement for real life

Smart transportation solutions operate at the intersection of technology, infrastructure, and human behavior.
Our approach focuses on creating systems that feel natural to use, efficient to operate, and resilient in real-world conditions.

We design with a clear focus on:

  • User comfort, safety, and trust
  • Clear interaction between people and vehicles
  • Seamless transitions across different modes of transport
  • Manufacturability and long-term system viability

By combining industrial design, UX strategy, and engineering collaboration, we help mobility concepts move confidently from vision to production.

What we do in Smart Transportation

We support mobility innovators, OEMs, and urban technology teams across a wide range of transportation challenges:

  • Vehicle Concept Development

Early-stage concepts that balance innovation, feasibility, and user needs.

  • User Interface & Dashboard Design

Clear, distraction-free interfaces designed for real driving and transit environments.

  • Interior & Exterior Form Language

Cohesive design systems that express brand, function, and usability.

  • Charging & Docking Station Design

Infrastructure solutions designed for clarity, durability, and public use.

  • Design for Manufacturability (DFM)

Design decisions aligned with production realities and cost efficiency.

  • Multimodal Mobility System Mapping

Designing experiences that connect vehicles, infrastructure, and users across multiple transport modes.

Featured Smart Transportation Case

S-PRO

A No-Touch Aircraft Seating System for Next-Gen Travel

Status: Ready for Production

S-PRO is a smart aircraft seating concept designed to respond to new expectations around hygiene, comfort, and privacy in air travel.

The system allows passengers to control lighting, recline, and tray functions through their personal devices, eliminating the need for direct contact.
Nano-coated surfaces, acoustic headrests, and modular storage elements further enhance cleanliness and personal comfort.

Formeta Design developed the concept with a strong focus on:

  • Touch-free interaction
  • Passenger comfort and privacy
  • Modular, production-ready design

S-PRO demonstrates how thoughtful design can redefine the in-flight experience while meeting real operational requirements.

Selected Smart Transportation Projects

Our transportation work spans a wide range of mobility contexts, including:

  • Urban and shared mobility vehicles
  • Public transportation interiors and systems
  • Electric scooters and micro-mobility solutions
  • Marine and aviation concepts
  • Charging, docking, and support infrastructure

Each project is developed with a systems-level perspective, ensuring consistency across touchpoints and scalability over time.
