The Oasis /
A luxury automotive brand experience that invites guests into a Californian desertscape under a 24-hour sky simulation, translating Lucid’s story of design, technology and new luxury into space you can inhabit.
Lucid Motors, 2023 — 24
To launch and establish the Lucid brand in Europe while driving immediate excitement, demand and conversion, we crafted an exclusive brand environment that honours Lucid’s architectural identity, yet remains modular and adaptable across various events, fairs and retail formats.
Visitors were invited to rest, recharge and explore the Lucid brand in an elegant, minimalist Californian-desert environment: The Oasis. Soft light, organic materials and welcome calm underscore the hero of the space – the Lucid Air.
Creative Approach
As we take the journey, that is life, we sometimes forget that resting is part of movement.
Let’s slow down, catch our breaths in the clean, Californian desert air, before traveling on.
Join us. Step into the realm of Lucid and recharge for your personal journey.
Muted colors and organic shapes mix with sharp edges and materials used in the car, creating a calm environment, while highlighting the hero of the Oasis: the Lucid Air.
Design Concept
The design concept revolves around the company’s founding pillars of Space, Energy and Time, which collectively tell the story of how comfort, innovation and connectivity come together to deliver a truly different luxury experience. Adding to the design intent, the experience should feature a (multiple) screen setup to immerse visitors into the vast Californian desert sky on a 24-hr simulation.
Adaptation #01 Masters Expo 2023
For the first time the concept was designed and implemented at the Masters Expo in Amsterdam in 2023. Within a tight budget and limited timeframe, the focus was on minimizing the amount of space and complexity, while achieving the best possible brand experience.

Adaptation #02 Geneva Motor Show
Next to generating excitement, demand and conversion, the main objective for the second edition of the concept was to support the launch of the new Gravity SUV model during Geneva International Motor Show, 2024
Design Process
Based on our experience with the previous production and our ongoing collaboration with the client, the entire design process proved to be quick and efficient again. With a clear and straightforward design concept in place, we were able to arrive at a suitable design, and within just a few iterations, the proposal received approval for production, allowing us to move forward into technical planning and execution.
