In order to complement the design and precision of the Lexus vehicles on display, Gupta took inspiration from some of the greatest design icons of the 20th century across the globe, to develop the aesthetic culture of the showroom. Where some elements of the showroom take their styling cues from Piet Mondrian’s works, an artist is celebrated for reflecting the underlying spirituality of nature in his works; the lounge furniture has been inspired form the works of noted Japanese- American woodworker George Nakashima.
The pictures in the meeting room at Lexus New Delhi are of two iconic structures in Chandigarh, designed by Le Corbusier. Le Corbusier, considered to be a pioneer in ‘Modern Architecture’, prepared the master plan for the city of Chandigarh and contributed specific designs for several buildings there. His outstanding contribution to the “Modern Movement” was Gupta’s motivation to showcase his innovations.
Attention to such minute details is what sets this luxury brand apart from its competitors, and will definitely prove to be a game changer in the Indian luxury car segment.
