BRP Can-Am Spyder Backrest
Design Brief: Design a new passenger backrest for the Can-Am Spyder that complements the vehicle’s existing design language.
Design Role: I served on this project as a freelance designer during my 2nd contract with BRP’s Lifestyle Studio. For this project I created initial sketches exploring how to design an upholstered backrest that would reflect the design language of the Can-Am Spyder. I then created a split clay model to explore two different designs in a single model using a mirror to visualize each halves. After my contract ended, the final version was completed by another designer using injection-molded, self-skinned foam.
