Within this media architecture aims to merge built form and digital media to augment the existing architectural context with socially relevant information.

On the same occasion and Ingo Maurer will announce the first stage in a new partnership. The two brands have always had in common a strong sense of planning and design, aesthetics and a transverse approach to research which goes beyond the object itself to create products that have become furnishing and design archetypes in their own right.
