Shanghai Motor Show

Shanghai, 2021

Required

A modular motor show concept was needed for the Chinese market that would reflect the Audi brand’s attitude and values. As a formal structure, it can be used again. Similar to an art gallery, where exhibits and showcases rotate, the focus isn’t on architecture but on communication. This creates a progressive overall experience that can be enriched with current brand and campaign messages at any time.

Focus

Display windows are used to focus on the topics and broad range of themes associated with the Audi brand’s innovative spirit and sustainable vision. These are then embedded in a clear, sophisticated architectural setting. The display windows offer space for the staging of highlight models and technical innovations.
