20 Aug 2018|1,845 views
The Red Dot Awards recognise the flagship Genesis Gangnam showroom in Seoul, South Korea, and the Genesis Sound 360-degree audio branding campaign, respectively. Genesis Gangnam, designed by Office for Metropolitan Architecture, led by Rem Koolhaas, is the brand's new independent facility designed to provide a complete experience in all facets of the brand and product.
Inspired by the traditional beats and sound of the Korean Jangu-drum, Genesis Sound translates the Genesis brand personality, dubbed 'Quietly Iconic', into an auditory and visual experience. Focusing on the touch points of the automotive life cycle - from showroom and brand event space sounds to the expression of sound while driving - the gentle, confident Genesis Sound radiates an atmospheric presence filling the empty spaces between the notes.
"We are honoured to be selected by the esteemed Red Dot Design panel for Genesis Gangnam and the Genesis Sound, which are only the initial steps for our full design transformation," said Manfred Fitzgerald, Executive Vice President and Global Head of the Genesis Brand. "Genesis design, in all its forms, will continue to pave the way forward."
