Courage questions, shatters and awakens. We need bold, courageous voices. All of us. We need fresh thinkers with optimism. We believe in the frontrunners. The avantgarde, those who fight stagnation and backwardness. Courage only knows moving forward. Driving the pioneers of our culture to inspire tomorrow. To create a sublime kind of new. Reaching a superior level of excellence. This is where a new kind of luxury is born. WHEN POWER CREATES DYNAMICS AND AESTHETICS CREATES JOY, THERE IS PERFECTION, WHICH SURPASSES EVERYTHING. A PERSONALITY BETWEEN AMBITION AND EMOTION, BETWEEN PRESENCE AND EXTRAVAGANCE – THE HEART RECOGNISES FROM THE VERY FIRST ENCOUNTER WHAT WORDS CAN ONLY DESCRIBE. DISCIPLINE. COMPOSURE. RETICENCE. THERE‘S A TIME FOR ALL OF THAT. BUT THERE ARE MOMENTS WHEN PERFECT, UNCONDITIONAL ENTHUSIASM IS THE ONLY CONCEIVABLE REACTION. ONE SECOND. ONE LOOK. ONE SINGLE GESTURE. WE RECOGNISE TRUE CHARISMA IN A FEW MOMENTS. BUT WHEN WE ENCOUNTER IT, THE REST OF OUR PATH CHANGES. THINGS THAT ONLY SERVE THEIR PURPOSE MAY TAKE US FURTHER. BUT A NEW WAY OF THINKING IS NEEDED TO GET TO WHERE THE FEELING OF ABSOLUTE FREEDOM ARISES FROM HEIGHT, WIDTH AND LENGTH. IS SIZE A PHYSICAL DIMENSION? ABSOLUTELY. BUT SOMETIMES, RARELY, A SINGLE ENCOUNTER MANAGES TO MAKE US FEEL WHAT THIS TERM CAN REALLY MEAN. WHEN SOMETHING IS SHAPED IN SUCH A WAY THAT IT CAPTIVATES LOOKS AND AROUSES EMOTIONS, THE INNER VALUES RECEDE INTO THE BACKGROUND. UNLESS THEY OUTDO EVERYTHING ELSE. AN UNMISTAKABLE CHARACTER. AN AESTHETIC STATEMENT THAT OVERRIDES ANY RESISTANCE WITH CLASS. AFTER AN ENCOUNTER WITH PERFECTION, COMPROMISES NO LONGER HAVE A PLACE IN LIFE. THE VISION 2 LUXURY MUST AROUSE EMOTIONS. Searching and finding modern perfection: Adrian van Hooydonk, chief designer at the BMW Group, on the new appearance in the segment of the most exclusive vehicles. The models under the name Bayerische Motoren Werke open up a new world within the BMW portfolio. What is your idea of contemporary luxury? We do not want to tell our customers how they should define luxury for themselves, but just want to make an attractive, diverse offer. The perception of luxury is very different worldwide. But a central aspect that becomes visible everywhere is the increasing significance of personal time. It is becoming the most valuable asset in a globalised world. How is the wish for perfection and refinement expressed in mobility? In today’s mobile world, we spend more and more time in various modes of transport. Cars are now like personal rooms on wheels. One wants to feel completely comfortable in them. A steering wheel that you touch, the materials that surround you have to feel perfect and the eye does not want to be disturbed by unclean lines or individual components. The interior of a vehicle is seen as a living space. It is about being surrounded by the highest possible sensuous quality. What is the biggest challenge in the external appearance? Luxury must be reflected to the outside world in a matter-of-fact way. There is a beautiful term for it: sophistication. For designers – our team has more than 700 employees at four locations worldwide, who are encouraged through constant competition with each other in terms of ideas – this means that every detail counts. The design has to arouse strong emotions while expressing the highest quality and durability at the same time. In order to be able to spend every moment intensely, full of meaning and beauty. Therefore, we are building a luxury ecosystem, a model family. In various forms of expression: contemporary saloons, elegant and very sporty coupés, but also vehicles that offer very luxurious space. In the new designs, a common factor is noticeable: the reduction of lines. Do you want to increase luxury by making luxury less apparent in the design? In this way, the design becomes clearer, more modern and more emotional. An expressive surface play is in the foreground, and the dynamics are emphasised even more than before by the vehicle body. The few but very precise vehicle lines underline the graphic design of the surfaces. The vehicle body looks more powerful, refined and luscious with the lavish surfaces without losing the sportiness that is typical to BMW. This is possible only because we work out every feature of a vehicle individually. For a BMW, one should be able to identify at first glance what kind of experience one would have with it. Especially in our large and particularly luxurious vehicles, we attach great importance to a marked appearance and the maximum possible feel-good factor in the interior. It‘s about freedom - and the feeling of being at home in a BMW. EXTERIOR DESIGN 30 31 DESIGN AND HIGHLIGHTS – EXTERIOR DESIGN A GREAT CHARACTER – SPORTIER THAN EVER. A real sports car through and through – with unusually generous space: The unmistakable, unique design character of the new BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé makes this possible. PROVOKES. ESPECIALLY EMOTIONAL OUTBURSTS. REAL SPORTS CAR. A strong, independent character, recognisable at first glance – the new BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé interprets BMW‘s design language in its very own aesthetic way. The result is an appearance full of dynamism, elegance and presence: Even at the front, the muscularly modelled surfaces and precise contours of the bonnet make an impressive statement for unconditional power. The striking double kidney grille widens towards the bottom, emphasising the vehicle‘s low centre of gravity – an effect that is further emphasised by the flat, slightly raised headlights. In the side view, the roof line flowing to the rear emphasises the rousing coupé character of the vehicle. Iconic features such as the modern interpretation of the upright Hofmeister kink lend the elongated side window graphic a decisive measure of sublime presence. The interplay of generous surfaces and lines makes the flow of the airstream along the new BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé virtually visible. A suggestive third line runs through the door handles into the pronounced, curved shoulder and underlines the uniqueness of the new BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé. This unmistakable character is particularly evident in the wide, self-confident rear with its muscular shoulder section: Inspired by automobile classics, the roof line of the new BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé in the form of two fins, which surround the rear window, leads into the upwardly curved rear – a design feature that is otherwise only found in handmade vehicles. Despite all the refinement in the design, the new BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé spreads one thing above all: a passionate, genuine sports car feeling that unmistakably expresses the forward thrust from every perspective. Starting with characteristic details such as the large air intakes in the front apron, every design element is shaped for maximum effect. Powerful proportions and a particularly long wheelbase allow a clearly dynamic sports car contour to be created despite its four doors. The wide wheel arches further enhance the effect of the rear – even when stationary, the new BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé always seems ready for a sprint. The high tear-off edge of the curved tailgate also makes it impressively clear how the maximum sportiness of the new BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé finds its expression in the design. This is what it looks like when exciting form merges with sophisticated function to create a uniquely dynamic masterpiece: the new BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé. INTERIOR DESIGN 32 33 A glance at the interior of the new BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé also makes this clear: You don‘t find compromises here. Instead, sportiness and luxury dominate the picture to the highest degree – for an exciting experience that gets your pulse racing as you get on board. THE PERFECT PLACE FOR PILOTS. HEART PALPITATIONS ON ALL SEATS. In the new BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé, the sporty driving experience is not limited to the front seats – rear-seat passengers also enjoy a driving experience that releases endorphins from the very first metre. This is especially due to the single-seat design of the rear seats, which is visually oriented to the seats in the cockpit: Not only do they offer ideal support and an enclosing seating feeling even on dynamic journeys, they also spread an unparalleled sports car atmosphere. In the cockpit, the sporty DNA of the new BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé is abundantly clear: Every line, every surface, every detail visualises the extraordinary driving experience that begins as soon as the powerful engine starts. Depending on the selection, Multifunction seats1, 2, * or even M Sport seats1, * offer a comfortable seating experience for the driver and front passenger, which at the same time stands out for its superior grip and dynamic driving style. A special design element of the new BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé is visible between the front seats: the centre console, which is wide and steeply ascending as is typical of sports cars, emphasises the longitudinal orientation of the interior and the focus on the road even in the dark thanks to precisely integrated light guides. In the centre console itself, all driving functions can be found in one place. 1 2 Available as optional equipment. Standard for M850i xDrive. * The availability of some equipment features and functions depends on engine variants or additional options. The market and production availability may vary. You can find detailed information about terms, standard and optional equipment at www.bmw.com or at your BMW Partner. DESIGN AND HIGHLIGHTS – INTERIOR DESIGN THE FEELING OF SPACE AND TOP TIMES. INTERIOR DESIGN INTERIOR DESIGN 34 35 DESIGN AND HIGHLIGHTS – INTERIOR DESIGN THE FEELING OF ABSOLUTE FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT. So sporty – and yet so spacious: The interior of the new BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé impressively shows that you can have everything – and above all, a lot of space. GENEROSITY, LUXURIOUSLY INTERPRETED. When you get into the new BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé, you immediately experience what free space means: Never before has a Gran Coupé offered such a generous feeling of space. Head, shoulders, knees, legs – everywhere the body has maximum freedom and can exactly take the position that feels best. Lean back, stretch out and enjoy the experience of absolute freedom of movement. The extended centre console, which extends from the cockpit to the rear in a flowing movement, supports this impression. Together with the fold-out centre armrest, it defines two discreet individual seats, each offering maximum seating comfort. LIGHT. AIR. LUXURY. If you can‘t get enough of it, you‘ll feel particularly at home under the Panorama glass roof1. The large continuous glass surface extends far into the rear and emphasises the flowing shape of the new BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé from the outside. From the inside, it opens the view to the outside and creates a light-flooded, airy atmosphere on all seats. As soon as it gets dark, the Ambient light creates a special flair: Its numerous indirect LED and contour line lights create a feeling of space that is as unique as it is luxurious and can even be customised to suit personal taste. 1 Available as optional equipment. INTERIOR DESIGN 36 37 DESIGN AND HIGHLIGHTS – INTERIOR DESIGN IN LOVE WITH THE DETAILS. One look. One touch. An experience in itself. The very first encounter with the interior of the new BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé makes it clear: The best is obviously here – and only the beginning of a series of extraordinary experiences. A FEAST FOR THE EYES. SYMPHONY OF THE SENSES. The door closes – and everyday life is left behind. The interior of the new BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé is a world of its own – a world that combines the highest-quality materials, elaborate workmanship and a sense for the extraordinary to create a masterpiece that keeps on fascinating on every journey. Selected, fine materials and skilfully rendered details define the picture – such as the generous leather trim of the cockpit, which extends into the door panels, or the decorative surface in the centre console, which attracts attention. A special highlight in this fine environment are the exclusive ‚CraftedClarity‘1 glass applications: In a brilliant way, they emphasise the elegant interior ambience of the new BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé on the gear selector, iDrive Controller, volume control and Start/Stop button. Through the ears, right into the heart: With four aluminium Kevlar mid-range speakers, three normal mid-range speakers, three diamond tweeters, four normal tweeters, two central subwoofers with Rohacell technology, a 10-channel amplifier and microphone-supported driving dynamics sound control, the Bowers & Wilkins Diamond Surround Sound System1 creates an audio experience that turns every nuance, every emotion of music into an acoustic revelation. 1 Available as optional equipment. THOMAS HEATHERWICK THOMAS HEATHERWICK 38 39 SPACES WITH WOW EFFECT THE BMW 8 SERIES GRAN COUPÉ COMBINES ICONIC DESIGN WITH UNUSUAL SPACE. LIKE THOMAS HEATHERWICK‘S BUILDINGS, WHICH DEFY THE USUAL STANDARDS. WITH HIS WALK-IN SCULPTURE “VESSEL”, THE BRITISH STAR DESIGNER HAS JUST COMPLETED A SPECTACULAR BUILDING IN NEW YORK. Maybe Thomas Heatherwick hasn‘t heard any other word as often as “wow”! No wonder, as the British architect has specialised in spectacular spaces. Spaces that astonish and awaken feelings of sublimity in the observer. Heatherwick‘s “Vessel”, one of the largest architectural sculptures in the world, has just been finished in New York – architecture because the work is accessible and usable. Sculpture, because the work has no other purpose than to give pleasure, to make perspectives tangible and to experience space. Investors have thus succeeded in making a well-calculated coup. And it‘s no wonder they chose Thomas Heatherwick. For the MOCAA, the Museum of Contemporary African Art in Cape Town, he previously gutted a listed former grain silo and created an almost sacral-looking space from the 30-metre-high concrete pipes. In London, he used a trick to save two historic railway coal terminals and turned them into a shopping centre. In the ensemble known as Coal Drops Yard, he brought together two conventional saddle roofs with a cheeky swing so as to create a very special space. Finally, in Singapore, he erected a university building that resembles a kind of beehive from the outside: Twelve round towers are crowded together here – the basic idea of the building is to avoid endless office corridors. In fact, the connecting atrium is once again a typical Heatherwick: The curved balustrades create a space in which you enjoy spending time. As he‘s doing so well, Heatherwick is now working with BIG‘s Danish team to design Google‘s headquarters in Mountain-View, California. Like under a gigantic tent roof, the individual buildings are supposed to stand together and open up flexible spaces for interaction and work organisation. What is particularly remarkable about Heatherwick‘s success as an architect is that he did not even study architecture, but „three-dimensional design“. And this is the key concept that has left a lasting impression on his spaces. “For me, every project is three-dimensional,” he says, and in a broader sense as well: He finds the specifications of individual disciplines arbitrary and does not want them to apply to his work. Maybe it was this approach that earned him his gigantic reputation. He has already been compared to Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo, both artists who have worked beyond the boundaries of disciplines – from drawing to painting and sculpture to architecture. But Thomas Heatherwick has remained modest despite the hymns of praise. “I‘m not interested in my own taste,” he says objectively, “I don‘t want to express myself.” Born in 1970, the designer almost never speaks of himself in the first person, always focusing on his team, “the studio”. He now has 200 employees. He PHOTOS: COURTESY OF MICHAEL MORAN FOR RELATED-OXFORD, IMAGO IMAGES, HUFTON+CROW THOMAS ALEXANDER HEATHERWICK IS AN ENGLISH DESIGNER AND FOUNDER OF THE LONDON DESIGN STUDIO HEATHERWICK STUDIO. SINCE THE LATE 1990S, HEATHERWICK HAS BECOME ONE OF THE UK‘S MOST IMPORTANT DESIGNERS. himself, with curly hair and wide-cut designer clothing, appears among them like a motivator, a source of ideas and a guide. But when he talks about his projects, you can feel the inner fire, which is not satisfied with the usual standards. Thomas Heatherwick wants to amaze people and yet he always remains pragmatic. “We try to find solutions to problems,” he explains his approach. At the Hudson Yards in New York, this consisted of giving an attractive centrepiece to a rather sterile development area of eleven hectares. “The inspiration for ‘Vessel’,” explains its creator Thomas Heatherwick, “came from ancient Indian wells. The stairs led down to the water in a similar pattern, and we wondered if it could be made into an amphitheatre for the people.” And one where the Instagram generation is involved. “Vessel” is highly photogenic, with insights, views and vistas of Manhattan, a mega motif like the Taj Mahal and the Eiffel Tower. “There are no guidelines as to what to do with it,” explains Thomas Heatherwick, “we hope that it offers people unique and fresh moments.” The almost infinite selection of possible paths in it breathes a spirit of freedom and attracts people from afar – Operation Landmark can already be considered a success since its opening. HIGH CARAT FROM HIGH TECH. IF YOU DON‘T KNOW THE ADDRESS, YOU WON‘T FIND IT. THE DIAMOND FOUNDRY IN SILICON VALLEY, SOUTH OF SAN FRANCISCO, IS A PLACE OF THE HIGHEST DISCRETION. NO COMPANY SIGN, NO STATEMENT PORTAL, NOTHING SUGGESTS WHAT IS HIDDEN BEHIND THE FACADE OF THIS SINGLE-STOREY FUNCTIONAL BUILDING: DIAMONDS THAT WILL ONE DAY BE WORTH SEVERAL MILLION US DOLLARS. DIAMOND FOUNDRY DIAMOND FOUNDRY 42 43 DiCaprio invested around 100 million US dollars in the company. “I‘m proud to invest in the Diamond Foundry,” says the lead actor in the Blood Diamond drama film. “This is where real diamonds are made in America – without the negative impact of diamond mines on people and the environment.” No wonder that a typical working day for Martin Roscheisen is no longer just behind a desk: “I spend time in our production and I support celebrities,” Roscheisen comments dryly. With success: For example, actress Patricia Arquette wore orchid earrings with 349 individual diamonds at the Golden Globes in January 2019 when she accepted her award on stage. Manufacturer of the earrings: the Diamond Foundry. The technology of the diamond producers from Silicon Valley also offers new possibilities for the design of gemstones. A unique piece of jewellery, which the Diamond Foundry produced according to a joint design by Apple‘s head of design Sir Jony Ive and the renowned industrial designer Marc Newson, is the (RED) Diamond Ring, which was auctioned at the beginning of December 2018. The jewel reached a price of 461,250 US dollars. The special feature of this ring is that it was cut completely from one diamond and has about 3000 tiny facets. A rough diamond of this purity and size would not have existed in nature. Even the production in the plasma reactor was a challenge. Since there was no diamond splinter in the required dimension, the atoms had to be outwitted, so to speak. With a few tricks, the Diamond Foundry technologists mastered this hurdle so that at the end, a diamond block of the desired size could be created. Afterwards, everything had to be prepared for the grinding and polishing of this large-format stone – not an everyday task for the master cutter of the Diamond Foundry from Antwerp, who has PLASMA REACTOR IT IS THE CUT THAT GIVES THE DIAMOND ITS VALUE. This so-called plasma glows red, is as hot as the sun and contains many carbon atoms. A natural diamond splinter serves as the foundation of every new gemstone. On it, the carbon atoms form crystalline structures, layer by layer. It takes two weeks to produce a rough diamond of nine carats in this way. A stone that is chemically identical to a diamond created in nature. Only much more pure. 51-year-old Martin Roscheisen is what Silicon Valley calls a “serial entrepreneur”. After his studies, he left his hometown of Munich to go to the USA to do his doctorate at Stanford University, a Californian elite university. In 1992, he gained a doctorate in information technology and several new friends. Friends like his fellow students Larry Page and Sergey Brin – better known as the fathers of the Google search engine. Roscheisen founded three successful Internet companies one after the other. In 2002, he started his fourth company, Nanosolar, with the aim of dramatically reducing the costs of solar cells. And he came up with the idea for the Diamond Foundry: “At Nanosolar, we used a similar technology platform to manufacture thin-film solar cells.” For three years, his team worked on constructing suitable plasma reactors for diamond production. In 2012, he founded the Diamond Foundry with the engineers Jeremy Scholz and Kyle Gazay. And it hit the jackpot: Production and sales figures have almost doubled every quarter to date. It is the cut that gives the diamond its value. The highest level of precision is essential, not a fraction of a millimetre can be missed. Only then will the diamond reach its maximum radiant power. The Diamond Foundry is very proud of the high level of craftsmanship at which its polishers work and reliably achieve this goal. The brilliant cut, which is most in demand worldwide, is only one of 39 options. The cutters are able to bring diamonds into any individual shape. For Martin Roscheisen, there is hardly a wish that his master technologists and craftsmen cannot fulfil in the Diamond Foundry. Except one. Martin Roscheisen promptly answers the question of whether he is missing something from Germany: “Nuremberg grilled sausages! Bavaria should urgently work to export them all over the world.” MARTIN ROSCHEISEN PHOTOS: DIAMOND FOUNDRY IN 2019, DIAMOND FOUNDRY PLANS TO INCREASE ITS PRODUCTION FROM 100,000 CARATS TO ONE MILLION CARATS PER YEAR. To achieve this goal, the company opened a second production facility in the US state of Washington at the beginning of the year. The timing seems perfect, as Frost & Sullivan analysts warned as early as 2015: In the middle of the 21st century, global diamond production will shrink to one tenth of its current level because diamond deposits are nearing their end. Diamond producers also receive support from the US trade authority, the Federal Trade Commission: In July 2018, it stipulated that the origin of a diamond should no longer make any difference in its designation. The term “natural diamond” is no longer permitted. “Above-ground” diamonds have been scoring well in price for a long time, because they are 30 to 40 percent cheaper than their siblings from the mines. The sustainability of these diamonds inspires not only customers, but also investors. Technology and Hollywood celebrities such as Twitter CEO Evan Williams and actor Leonardo already cut some of the world‘s largest diamonds. For this exclusive order, she had special tools manufactured by a diamond tool supplier in Belgium. In order to achieve maximum smoothness, the inner ring was cut out cylindrically with a micrometre-thin laser beam coated with water. DESIGN AND HIGHLIGHTS – EDITORIAL AT THE HEART OF THE DIAMOND FOUNDRY IS A LARGE SPACE WITH 20 HIGHLY DEVELOPED PLASMA REACTORS IN WHICH THESE ROUGH DIAMONDS ARE PRODUCED. THE HIGH-PRESSURE INCUBATORS, WHICH ARE OPERATED WITH SOLAR ENERGY, CAN GENERATE GAS CLOUDS WITH PARTICULARLY HIGH ENERGY DENSITY. INNOVATION 44 45 DESIGN AND HIGHLIGHTS – INNOVATION EMOTIONALLY INNOVATIVE. In the new BMW 8 Series Gran Coupé, innovations are not an end in themselves.
