Speculative Design: The Los Angeles-based Urban Air Mobility Partnership

As we shared with the OODA Loop membership in July, the Nuclear-Powered Sky Hotel is the intersection of speculative design and a creative belief in the future of nuclear energy (directly at odds with nuclear’s decades of bad press and over-regulation of the market).  The Nuclear-Powered Sky Hotel, through speculative design, asks “What if?” Personal helicopters and air taxis are at the intersection of speculative design and the short-sighted perception and branding of the “Future of Mobility” to the general public.  The actual promise of the future of mobility is more diverse than just the autonomous vehicles market.

Ponder the future of mobility through speculative design by way of the Urban Movement Labs, Overair – and the creation of a new marketplace for mobility that early players in the space are calling “Urban Air Mobility” or “Advanced Air Mobility (AAM)”.
