2022 Piaggio 1 Feng Chen Wang: HEALTH. PROSPERITY. HARMONY.
Introducing the 2022 Piaggio 1 Feng Chen Wang…
Piaggio and Feng Chen Wang, one of the most experimental and innovative designers on the international landscape, have joined forces to create a special customized edition of Piaggio 1, the latest urban electric mobility solution from Piaggio.
Agile, light, essential and practical, Piaggio 1 revolutionizes the e-scooter concept with a captivating design and real attention to detail. The Feng Chen Wang special edition that will be previewed at EICMA 2021 stands out for its exclusive livery, in which the designer blends the Chinese tradition (Feng was in fact born in Fujian, a province in southeastern China known for its breath-taking natural scenery) with vibrant London creativity.
The watercolor visually combines the natural elements of water and the symbol of the Phoenix that, in Chinese mythology, represents virtue and grace. It is hand-painted using the traditional Chinese brush stroke technique, while the green color, also used on the seat upholstery and the rims, does not only reflect the indigenous flora, but also universal values such as health, prosperity, and harmony.
