Electronics Meets Crafts:
Exhibition
Electronics Meets Crafts” is the theme of Panasonic’s exhibition for Milano Salone 2017. Panasonic exhibited 8 prototypes that integrate electronics and crafts in a natural yet emotional manner. Created in partnership with GO ON, a creative unit founded by Kyoto craftspeople, the exhibition was designed to resonate with people's five senses and memories by showcasing state-of-the-art craftsmanship and aesthetic awareness that Japanese tradition has nurtured for centuries. Through this exhibition, Panasonic explored what it means to "live well" and asked the same question of the visitors.
