This afternoon, I’m in the Aoyama district of Tokyo for a tour of the new INTERSECT BY LEXUS gallery — here’s how Lexus describes the space:
INTERSECT BY LEXUS are unique-luxury spaces where people can experience Lexus without getting behind a steering wheel. Neither a dealership, nor a traditional retail space, guests are able to engage with Lexus through design, art, fashion, culture, film, music and technology.
While I’ll be writing about my INTERSECT visit in much greater detail next week, I’ll be posting some live updates today. Be sure to leave a comment with any questions you have, and I’ll do my best to get an answer.
