Students were challenged to design a personal transportation device with a focus on sustainability and wellness. Hou classic is an innovative take on skateboards. The goal was to create a durable product that could outlast other skateboards in the market at the same time that could be customizable and easy to use. The light aluminum frame allows for inserts to be placed at the top, creating a customizable component to the design. The tops are made out of sustainable materials like cork or wood, and the simple forms they have, act as a canvas for the user to personalize and reflect their style.
