Lexus has recently announced their participation in this year’s Milan Design Week for the 12th time. Not only that, but they’ve also partnered up with globally renowned design firm Rhizomatiks to bring to visitors a light-themed innovative experience.
The event, titled Leading with Light, had Rhizomatiks collaborate with Lexus. Inspired by Lexus’ future technology the Japanese brand has designed an immersive display that combines playful and dynamic lighting with advanced robotics. The purpose of this exhibition is to demonstrate how the innovative use of light can affect human emotions. Rhizomatiks has made many projects in lighting the most noticeable being their work in the Tokyo Station (a project known as Tokyo Colors 2015).
This isn’t the first time that the two brands have collaborated, seen as in 2014 they participated together in art and technology exhibition, Media Ambition Tokyo. This event is set to happen on the 13th and 14th of April at Superstudio Piu (Art Point) located in Via Tortona.
Another upcoming surprise from Lexus is the works from the 6 Finalists of the 2019 Lexus Design Award. This year’s theme was ‘Design for a Better Tomorrow,‘ and it challenged young designers to come up with innovative solutions beyond the mastery of shape, form, and function.
