kolelinia.com Is it possible to achieve a completely new level
of transportation with minimum resources?
Kolelinia is a concept for riding our own bikes on a steel wire, a new type of bicycle-lanes…Everything started in the summer of 2008. I decided to participate in the international architectural competition „Line of Site” on the „City Transportation Interchange”
brief. The first crazy idea which came to my mind was to make flying
bicycle-lanes, using steel wire, something like ski lift but working on
the opposite principle in which the wire is static and it doesn’t need
electricity. Ultimately I sent only a pencil sketch and the idea placed
for the final,
which was held on February 2009 in London. My detailed presentation won
the „City Transportation Interchange” brief. During the autumn of the
same year I decided to develop the idea in further details. At the same
time I received an invitation to become presenter for the Sofia’s TEDx
conference, something that additionally stimulated the development of
the idea. Many of the principles have been changed. For example the
personal safety device, which is a prior-art itself. This site presents
the third step of the development. Time only will show what will come out of it…
