Key Facts: A 20m high tetrahedron structure set to accommodate cultural, artistic, and fashion events for Prada. The structure, which is covered by a smooth elastic membrane, can be rotated to best suit the chosen event, with 4 different facades that can become the floor, walls, or ceiling. These facades, all built in a steel-frame, are unique by their shapes, being a hexagon, a cross, a circle, and a rectangle. LG Electronics supported the Transformer along with Hyundai Motor Co. and others.
