On the main concourse of the Frankfurt Motor Show, Audi invites visitors to look at mobility from a new point of view: a “Hanging City” inspires fresh perspectives and allows visitors to encounter the varied demands on future mobility, as well as Audi’s innovative technical solutions.
This free-standing building with a floor space of 3,400 square meters looks, from the outside, like a starkly geometrical, floating cube. Inside, skyscrapers and entire districts grow downwards from the ceiling. Each district illustrates the characteristics of mobile, urban living. Here it’s about new technology and innovative drive systems, about individualism and athleticism or about the Audi design philosophy. Architecture, media installations and mysterious lighting combine to create an impressive brand and experience world, offering visitors new perspectives on the multiplicity of tomorrow’s urban mobility solutions.
This project was designed and created for AUDI AG by SCHMIDHUBER (concept and architecture) and KMS BLACKSPACE (concept, communication and media installations).
