Archer Aviation, a manufacturer of electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft, announced its Midnight aircraft has been recognized by the MUSE Design Awards as the “Transportation Design of the Year”. The MUSE Design Awards celebrates and honors the world's best in design and innovation.
Unlike the automotive industry, the skin of an eVTOL aircraft cannot be designed alone - the entire aircraft must be designed collectively with engineering and industrial design teams working hand in hand to achieve a final product that was visually stunning while meeting the strict aerodynamics and weight demands required for the aircraft to perform at the level required.
The MUSE Design Awards is an international design competition dedicated to recognizing excellent and original design work from around the world. Its mission is to honor and celebrate outstanding design innovators, while inspiring others to elevate the standards of the design world.
