ROOFTOP CARGO CARRIER

Exploring the possibilities of a future travel concept using THULE design and technology cues.

This cargo carrier's function is to house multiple skis, snowboards, or other winter gear while automatically drying them of snow and ice once the vehicle is in motion.

SKETCHES AND IDEATION

As the vehicle drives along, outside air travels over the carrier and is channeled into a duct. Passing through a small heater pump, the air is converted into warm air and blown into each compartment to dry gear of snow and ice. 

Gear compartments feature integrated drain channels to prevent water from pooling and creating a damp environment. The carrier also includes isolated storage in the rear for hot or cold food and beverages.
