Samsung S8 launch
Unconfined: the Galaxy S8 Design was an immersive, interactive installation that opened exclusively during Milan Design Week 2017. We collaborated with Zaha Hadid Architects and Samsung on the installation, inspired by the new Galaxy design.
Together with the bold, forward-looking studio of the late Zaha Hadid, we explored the infinite possibilities created when design and technology are seamlessly unified. Visitors were invited to journey through the installation, creating mesmerising digital avatars on the mobile app, and bringing to life the Galaxy design philosophy of “no borders, no boundaries”.
