I wonder which program he used to create the fictional products? They look all computer generated. Solid works?

Ora Ito edit

Hello, The English Wikipedia article on Ora-ïto is significantly underdeveloped compared to available reliable sources (French Wikipedia, design press, and official project documentation). In particular, many major commissioned works are missing or only briefly mentioned, especially in architecture, transport design, and large-scale collaborations. Below is a list of specific, verifiable projects that could be added or expanded in the article, grouped by category: 1. Public transport & mobility design (major missing section) These are large-scale commissioned projects with industrial partners: Nice tramway system (Alstom collaboration) Ora-ïto co-designed the tramway rolling stock for the city of Nice in collaboration with Alstom, including exterior and interior design language for the fleet. Marseille metro redesign (future rolling stock) He designed the new generation of Marseille metro trains, focusing on interior atmosphere, seating systems, and user experience (automation-ready design). Place Castellane urban transport hub (Marseille) Integrated public space redesign combining tram infrastructure and pedestrian landscape architecture. Sources confirm his ongoing work in transport systems and mobility design across France. 2. Architecture projects (important omission in English article) These are fully commissioned built projects: Hôtel O (Paris, 9th arrondissement) Full interior architecture and design of the hotel, developed with Elegancia Hotels. This is one of his earliest major hospitality projects. Yooma Urban Lodge (Paris, near Eiffel Tower) Co-designed hotel building and interiors with artist Daniel Buren in collaboration with Yooma / Elegancia group. Le Madeleine building (Paris) Interior architecture and lobby design for a commercial office building near the Madeleine district. MARXITO restaurant (Paris) Restaurant concept designed in collaboration with chef Thierry Marx (architecture + interior design). 10 Grenelle / LVMH media offices (Paris) Office architecture and interior design for a major media headquarters. 3. Industrial design / product collaborations (needs expansion) The article currently under-represents his industrial design output: Renault 17 electric restomod concept Modern reinterpretation of the classic Renault 17 for Renault. Angell electric bicycle (smart mobility design) Co-designed smart bike with Marc Simoncini for Angell. Vacheron Constantin limited edition watch (“Patrimony Ora-ïto”) Collaboration with Vacheron Constantin. Gorenje kitchen appliance collection Full product line design for Gorenje. Roche Bobois furniture collections Large-scale furniture design collaboration (notably award-winning pieces). 4. Hospitality & large spatial installations Flying Nest (AccorHotels concept) Modular hospitality / mobile accommodation concept for events. Superyacht design for Perini Navi First full yacht design project for luxury shipbuilding. 5. Cultural / institutional projects MAMO – Marseille Modulor (2013) Contemporary art centre created on the rooftop of the Cité Radieuse by Le Corbusier in Marseille, combining architecture, curation, and cultural programming. 6. Exhibitions, recognition, and institutional acquisitions (missing context) Works included in the permanent collection of the Centre Pompidou (Paris) Chevalier des Arts et des Lettres (France) Multiple Red Dot and iF Design Awards Exhibitions at international design events (Milan Design Week, gallery shows in France and abroad) So many things missing. The above is just a glimpse from chatgpt. ~2026-28583-87 (talk) 08:10, 12 May 2026 (UTC)
