We aimed to create a facility where even children can learn about Bridgestone's new innovations through hands-on experiences, in an easy-to-understand manner, based on a solution that everyone knows: tires. Through four different zones, visitors can learn about Bridgestone's history, fascinating products, and the latest technology. In the "1. WHO WE ARE" zone, visitors can learn about Bridgestone's history by following the red line that runs through the space. In the "2. WHAT WE OFFER" zone, visitors can learn about Bridgestone's past products and future solutions, mainly in the "Tire Park" where a variety of vehicle tires are displayed. In the "3. HOW WE CREATE" zone, a permeable membrane divides the space, creating a laboratory-like atmosphere to promote new products. In the "4. WHERE WE GO" zone, visitors can experience Bridgestone's innovation through images that wrap around the body. The dynamic dot art at the entrance represents the Bridgestone concept through layers of people visiting the museum, full-size cars and airplanes, and trees in the background.
