Beauty Innovation is constructed from threads, and expresses the beauty of diversity which ties into Shiseido’s corporate philosophy. 12 layers of vertically stretched thread is motor-controlled, starting out still and then moving in a regular, but bold fashion. The varying appearance of the threads emphasises diversity, while the various dye colours are an effort to represent the vast spectrum of beauty.
