Surreal Forms of Transport that Should be Real

By @Wanderarti · On 19 October, 2013

 

Ever get bored of the bus? The train? Driving your common and uninspiring car? There are many unique forms of transport all over the world, from colourful Jeepneys in the Philippines to the bamboo train in Cambodia. However, there are also some impossible designs by wildly creative individuals that probably won’t ever be seen on the streets – but we wish they were nonetheless.

If you could invent any form of transport, what would it be? Would it travel through the air, through water, or across land? Get creative in the comments!

Lizzie has a passion for visual vagabonding (a new term, maybe?), whereby she likes to document the beauty in the world via creative forms. She created Wanderarti as a space for this new term to flourish, providing somewhere for art and travel to collide. Apart from pretty things and exploring new places, Lizzie likes tea, takeaways, and cute animals.
