I have just completed the course work for the Bachelor of Design (Industrial Design)
(Honours) with Swinburne University’s Design Factory (Victoria, Australia). The final
honours year involved an international team developing innovative bicycle solutions for
intermodal transport, finishing with a presentation as part of Stanford University’s SUGAR
network (California USA).
During the 4 year commitment, I worked as a designer at Satelight Design (lighting) Mel-
bourne, after successfully gaining an internship for my studies. Also as a commissioned
artist, I produced a wide range of artwork in various medium and from small pieces to
large public murals.

GHISALLO
Product // Urban commuter cycle
Topic // Industrial design
Completed // 2015 - 2016
Time Scale // 9 Months
The Brief //
Design an environmentally sustainable and inclusive solution that improves
the experience of urban soft mobility commuters, namely in what concerns
the convenience, comfort, accessibility and safety of their daily home-work
travels.
5. 9
Commuting by bicycle is more
active, cheaper, and better for the
environment than taking a car.
What’s stopping so many of us?
Through ethnographic research
and user testing, the following
barriers were discovered.
• Low fitness level
• Fear of motorists
• Need to store bulky items
• Reluctance to compromise on
clothing and style
• Difficulty of taking a full size
bike onto a train!
The Ghisallo is designed to
motivate urban commuters
to start using a sustainable
transport method in their daily
travels.
It is aimed at professionals who
value style, convenience and a
sense of security.
SAFE AND STABLE ON THE ROAD SMOOTH AND SEAMLESS TRAVEL STYLISH, WITH STORAGE
THE ISSUE THE SOLUTION

MAKING YOUR COMMUTE
SAFE, SMOOTH AND STYLISH!

BORDA FUENTES
The Ghisallo cycle is a holistic
solution which addresses multiple
functional and emotional user needs.
1. Smooth - The seatpost and
handlebars are adjustable for a
customised ergonomic position
which promotes good posture.
2. Storage - Customisable and
weatherproof, the front luggage
compartment keeps your bags safe.
3. Stylish- The low frame provides
easy access, no matter what you
wear. Faux leather and timeless
colours add an air of elegance.
4. Safe - Two front wheels
creates a larger visual presence
without affecting maneuverability.
Proximity-activated safety lights
communicate the vehicle’s presence
to other road users.
5. Stable- Three wheels assists
balancing, stopping and starting.
6. Swift - With optional pedal assist
to 25km/h, you never have to break a
sweat.
7. Seamless - The rear half unlocks
quickly and swings underneath the
frame into a slot. When folded, the
cycle rolls around easily. It’s ideal for
train trips and grocery shopping.
