Honda's Got a Whimsical Vision for the Self-Driving Future

About a year ago, London design studio Map picked up a job from Honda. The brief called for a design for a self-driving Honda car that could, in some not-so-distant future, take passengers around the world. But the circumstances of the commission were unusual, for two reasons: (1) Map is a small firm that typically works with upstart entrepreneurs, and (2) Honda didn't even want anything tangible or buyable from Map. The automaker wanted beautiful ideas--a concept that gazed dreamily into the future of transportation. Great Journey" is the result of Map's work.
