Interesting, SOS ships use an Accel Drive which allows them to access a nonsensical realm called Accel Space which they use for travel.

As for a transwarp ship, hard to say. I usually design my ships around what I want them to communicate about the faction rather then the tech used. For example with the Stellarians I wanted to communicate a nation that was militaristic, highly advanced, and slightly eldritch. Thus I made them sleek, angular, sharp, a with no signs of conventional things like windows or external engines. They look like something that could AI control drones rather then crewed ships. Also I choose the purple and silver color scheme to further communicate the high tech and somewhat bizarre nature of the ships.

Still I can give my opinions on the subject. Such technology would probability be very complex and possibly large if its a new form of drive system, thus a large ship. I'd also say it'd be long and sleek emphasizing speed. Also to communicate the new and/or unique nature of the tech involved the ship should be somewhat strange looking to a degree, deviating in some noticeable way from the norm.
