The Biomega OKO could be the future of city commuting. It’s a sleek, futuristic, electric bicycle designed with the help of famed architect Bjarke Ingels. For city-dwellers, this is the perfect alternative transportation.
The bike is available in white or silver, and a 2-speed or an 8-speed. Pricing starts at #2295.
Works by Bjarke Ingels include the Islands Brygge Harbour Bath, a series of five open-air swimming pools in Copenhagen Harbour (2003) and three major housing projects in Ørestad on the southern outskirts of Copenhagen.
Three Major Copenhagen Housing Projects
VM Houses (2005), multi-family housing in V and M shaped apartment buildings; Mountain Dwellings (2008), an extensive parking facility combined with terraced housing; and 8 House (2010), a large mixed-use housing development.
Ingels already hinted his interest in bicycles in the documentary film Genre de Vie. The film is about bicycles, cities and personal awareness. Genre de Vie looks at human interaction with desired space, and urban life empowered by the simplicity of the bicycle.
