From Concept to Completion
Automobile design is going through a revolution right now. Design tools powered by Artificial Intelligence (AI) complementing designer’s skills and stretching the boundaries of what is possible.
Building The Legend is proud to offer our skills and experience to project-manage and complete your dream project – from concept to completion – from design to a beautiful finished, unique, type-approved and road-legal car. Whether that is a single car or one of many. Our skill-set and local access to a range of world-class automotive design, assembly and technology experts gives us the ability to turn your dreams to reality.
It is likely, if not almost certain, that we will be allowed to continue to enjoy the thrill of an internal-combustion engine in 2035 and long after.
Small-volume manufacturers such as ourselves will continue to operate after this date. Running on the next generation of carbon-neutral fully-synthetic fuels we can still enjoy cars that actually put a smile on our faces yet still maintain a respect for the environment.
Make contact and let’s discuss your ideas/project.
After an initial informal, no-obligation discussion the journey begins …
Conceptualisation & Design
The journey begins with an idea. We bring designers, engineers, and clients together to brainstorm, sketch, and eventually finalise a design.
This isn't just about aesthetics; functionality, practicality, safety, and sustainability are also key considerations.
Advanced technologies such as 3D-Modelling and Artificial Intelligence help visualise the project, crystallising your dream into something that can exist in the real world.
Planning
Once the design is agreed, it's time to plan. This includes setting timelines and estimating costs. A detailed project plan lays the foundation for a successful project. 3. Procurement Procurement involves sourcing and purchasing all the necessary materials, equipment, and labour for the project. This phase requires careful management to ensure that everything arrives on time and within budget.

The Build
This is where the excitement begins and the magic happens. Under the supervision of a project manager, your dream takes shape. With an eye on changing requirements, legislation and demands of appropriate Type Approval, the build progresses.
Post-Construction
After the build is complete, there's still work to be done. Post-construction involves thorough inspections to ensure the car meets all safety and quality standards. Any issues identified during this phase are addressed before the vehicle is ready to hit the tarmac! Type Approval ensures your finished project can be legally driven in different markets. Dynamic and extensive road/track testing takes place during this phase. Optimising the whole package and driving experience.
Handover
The final phase is handing over the completed project to you. This is what we live for.
This includes providing all necessary documentation and ensuring you are satisfied with the work.
How is AI influencing car design?
Artificial intelligence (AI) has touched many areas of the automotive industry, and car design has not been immune to the trend.
“Designers draw their inspiration from all manner of sources, from fashion, architecture and nature to sport or other vehicles like bikes, planes and boats. In some cases, weapons even come into the picture, with sculptural scimitar blades inspiring the gentle curve of a roofline. But for all the creative nous in the world, there is always the challenge of coming up with something new – with pushing the boundaries where car design is already worlds away from where it was a century ago. A task that has always been done by hand – be it sketching, moulding clay or digitally rendering – car design is gradually feeling the influence of artificial intelligence.”
Fuels From Air – The Process
Uses renewable energy to capture carbon dioxide and water from the air, electrolyses the water to make hydrogen and reacts the carbon dioxide and hydrogen together to make hydrocarbon fuels.
3D modelling
Is the process of using software to create a mathematical representation of a 3-dimensional object or shape.
