New Mid-Century Modern Electric Scooter Carved from Chestnut Wood

Just because you have a hard time getting around, doesn’t mean you can’t do it in style. Meet the ILY-Ai, an electric scooter, carved from chestnut wood, designed for the elderly or those who have trouble moving around.

Traditionally, metallic personal mobile vehicles are used when getting to your destination. Created by Mikiya Kobayashi, Aisin and Karimoku, this sit-down scooter looks more like the minimalist concepts derived from the late great Scandinavian mid-century modern furnishings. These designs are forever gracing the homes and the businesses of those who love the raw appeal of wood combined with functionality.

This modern electric scooter features a sleek, organic form accented the elegant curves of its chestnut wooden frame. Of course, it is not an electric scooter made entirely of wood! It combines aluminum, padded leather and high-tech features. One of its most astounding features is a safety sensor seamlessly hidden near the footrest, which stops the scooter if there are any obstacles in the way.

Aside from its naturally minimalist aesthetic and wide-ranging appeal, manufacturers ensured the padded leather seat and the handles provide optimal comfort to users.

For those who need their scooter handy even when in their home, the ILY-Ai will blend in like a new modern furnishing without any eyesores involved!
