The fifth edition of the
Madrid Design Festival
once again has the presence of
Mazda
among its participants.
The Japanese brand has created a sensory journey, called '
Mazda, SACo and The Sibarist invite you to their home
', which allows you to live closely and suggestively with the
craftsmanship spirit
and its creative process, as well as valuing what
is handmade
and putting in key respect for
sustainability
, factors present in Mazda's DNA when designing and creating cars.
"In an increasingly globalized world, this set of personalized disciplines value what is done by hand and
natural raw materials
connect us with life and objects, emphasizing our humanity," they say from Mazda.
In fact, among great craftsmen, the Japanese brand will debut its new flagship,
the Mazda CX-60, the first plug-in hybrid in the manufacturer's history
.
The exhibition, developed by
the interior designer Lorna de Santos
, is being held in a unique location:
The Sibarist: The greenhouse
(Calle de San Lorenzo 11. Local 2), in Madrid, from March 11 to 20.
With a schedule between 11:00 a.m.
and 8:00 p.m., where you can see different works by SACo artisans.
Mazda and the art of creating cars
Kodo
design, craftsmanship and sustainability
throughout the product life cycle reaffirm Mazda models as true benchmarks.
They are characterized by their handcrafted germ made by
takumis, Japanese craftsmen
who work on clay to find the lines of the design of each model.
The word Kodo -means heartbeat- changed Mazda's history more than 10 years ago.
A philosophy that revolves around
soul and movement
, initiated a new way of understanding the design language of Japanese cars.
A decade later, this language has crossed borders and has perfectly defined the spirit of the brand.
In the manufacturing process of a Mazda,
every last detail
is taken care of .
A clear example is in the colors, where the combination of a select craftsmanship and an elegant color range allows
exclusive
colors to be conceived.
One of them is the
captivating red
(
Soul Red Crystal
), born to embody Mazda's passion for cars and that represents the brand so well.
The same is true of a driver's first impression upon entering
the interior
of any Mazda.
To do this, work is done to make the 'welcome' as pleasant as possible thanks to the perception of
touches, smells and good materials
.
In fact, Mazda claims that it uses advanced techniques to study the movement and reaction of people when they drive.
"We brought together engineers and designers to create cabins and interiors based on this human-centric approach," says the Hiroshima-based manufacturer.
"Japanese masters have always sought pure beauty through the simplicity of forms. This is how we perceive Japanese aesthetics, with a sensitivity that has allowed us to create cars full of emotion. The difference from other manufacturers lies in "Mazda puts much more emphasis on the human touch and the artistry of clay modeling. This tradition of clay modeling allows even the most subtle details to be handcrafted," explains
Jo Stenuit, Head of European Design at Mazda
