Material Touch Interaction

 

The 2025 Materials First feature presents an engaging interactive experience. Curved walls are embedded with a diverse range of material samples, showcasing every stage of the material lifecycle—raw fragments, semi-finished forms, and finished products. Visitors are invited to explore the transformation process through touch, immersing themselves in the evolution of materials and the creative possibilities behind design.

Experience the journey of materials and discover the essence of design through touch!
