The lounge is a physical manifestation of BMW i7's progressive identity and refined design philosophy, of elegance without excess. The lounge's sculptural ceiling inspired by the winding ridges of Mount Tuwaiq, Najdi motifs, and bronze-green gradients echo the BMW i7's thoughtful, intelligent luxury. Quiet, sculpted, and intelligent, The BMW Lounge is a regional expression of Forwardism: rooted in context but driven by what's next.

With its curved surfaces, ambient light, and luxurious restraint, the lounge is inspired by the elegance and serenity of the BMW i7's interior design language. From its earthy grounding to its brass canopy, The BMW Lounge honors the past while embodying and emphasizing the focus on a future shaped by sustainability, craft, and design thinking. Every curve and gradient reflects a harmony of precision and poetry, considering local context and a global vision, where the quiet luxury of today meets the motion of tomorrow. 'I'm excited to be part of the first Riyadh edition of Downtown Design — a valuable addition to the growing design scene here. For The BMW Lounge, we drew inspiration from our regional landscape, particularly the contours and elevations of the Tuwaiq Mountains, which hold deep cultural significance. The concept, Woven Landscape, shapes a calm, welcoming space that reflects the surrounding environment and encourages connection and conversation,' said Amani Al-Ibrahim, Designer and Partner at Kristina Zanic Consultants. BMW's long-standing global patronage of the arts has spanned over 50 years, involving partnerships with revered cultural institutions and creating synergies between the worlds of modern art, classical music, jazz, architecture and design. BMW continues to push boundaries: not just on the road, but in the spaces where ideas are born.
