The Lexus of Tasmania showroom & Omotenashi restaurant is a unique space that marries the company’s Japanese heritage with its Tasmanian context. Designed by BYA Architects with Core Collective Architects, the interior is restrained and quiet; a beautifully crafted and distinctly Tasmanian backdrop for the showcased cars. The interior reflects the brand identity of both Lexus and Omotenashi whilst creating a unique customer experience that is understated and elegant.
“The design of Lexus and Omotenashi has truly transformed the way we approach our business. Not only does it reflect our brand identity seamlessly, but it also enhances the overall customer experience. The architects’ dedication to understanding the vision and translating it into reality was unparalleled. Their attention to detail and innovative approach added significant value to the project, making every day in the space both effortless and aesthetically pleasing.” – Sophie Pope and Lachlan Colwill, Omotenashi
