The 50 foot-tall aluminum sculpture reaches toward the future of personal communications, grasping Samsung\u2019s latest handset innovation.<\/p>\n<p>Lorenc recently spoke about the origin for the design before design students in Seoul, Korea.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA couple of years ago we were asked to take part in a paid competition with automotive designer named Giorgetto Giugiaro out of Milan and Karim Rashid out of New York,\u201d Lorenc explained. \u201cSamsung asked us to design an icon for an international airport to promote their handsets. They previously had a campaign where they took the chairman\u2019s hand, and they scaled it up 1,000 times, put it in the ground, painted it silver, and that was it. The problem was it looked like a dead giant that was buried because it didn\u2019t really have any energy. We wanted our design to take the energy from the earth, but have the same personal touch of a communication device. We won the competition, and our sculpture was installed at the airport in Frankfurt, Germany, and subsequently in Kiev, Ukraine and Toronto, Canada.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new installation of Lorenc+Yoo Design\u2019s \u2018Rising Hand\u2019 [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1312","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lorencdesign.com\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1312","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lorencdesign.com\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lorencdesign.com\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lorencdesign.com\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lorencdesign.com\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1312"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/lorencdesign.com\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1312\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1331,"href":"https:\/\/lorencdesign.com\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1312\/revisions\/1331"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lorencdesign.com\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1312"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lorencdesign.com\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1312"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lorencdesign.com\/zh\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1312"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
