The exhibition features brands such as Hermès, Loewe, Bottega Veneta, Rimowa, Kenzo, Tory Burch, Marc Jacobs, Longchamp, Patek Philippe, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Chopard, Piaget, Chaumet, Bang & Olufsen, Devialet, Lalique, Bernardaud, Diptyque and Hanoia. The creative artists and components include Pham Minh Hieu, Nguyen Duc Phuong, Nguyen Hoang Giang, Ngo Dinh Bao Chau and the Fustic.Studio team.

Experiencing the exhibition, viewers are led through 6 unique spaces, starting from the Interaction Hall, followed by 4 themed rooms: Heritage - Masterpiece - Artisan - Harmony and finally the Dream room.

The Interaction Hall is a space to showcase elaborate installations, reflecting the dialogues between brands and the local and international artist community. The rooms are where the creative journey is connected, from the brand's heritage mark, admiring typical masterpieces, finding the manual manipulation behind each detail, and then gradually reaching the original values of creation.

Each room is a unique “touch point”, where viewers can experience not only the products, but also the creative spirit hidden inside each brand. The Heritage Room tells the origin story, historical values, life philosophy and timeless creative aspirations. The Masterpiece Room honors iconic designs, where the essence of art blends with modern technology. The Artisan Room takes viewers back to the skillful hands and meticulous souls of the creators, where craftsmanship becomes poetry.

The Sound Room is lit up with sound and light installations, bringing new emotions, like a symphony between people and creativity.

The final stop is the Dream Room, a meditative and fantasy space designed by three visual artists. Here, viewers are lost in a cultural memory, where the past blends with imagination, opening up “new horizons”, in line with the philosophy that Tam Son pursues: “Creative energy originates from heritage but always moves forward”.

The exhibition “Intersection of Essence and Inspiring Life Journey” takes place at Building S2, Thang Long Imperial Citadel Relic Site, 19C Hoang Dieu, Ba Dinh Ward, Hanoi , opening to the public from October 26.
