Design and metaverse meet in Hogan's new immersive experience

After presenting its first collection of NFT sneakers during Decentraland Fashion Week, Hogan is preparing to welcome the public to its Via Monte Napoleone boutique for an immersive experience during Milan Design Week June 7-12. Through an Oculus visor, in fact, visitors will be able to explore the five digital worlds that studio WHY and Philip Abussi of Mokamusic have recreated for the brand, modeled on the vision of the five international digital artists who worked on the Hogan Untraditional NFTs project: unique works in a limited edition of 500 NFTs. Also for the occasion, an installation inside the store will allow the public to see physical versions of NFTs Hogan Untraditional, created by the Nita studio, thus uniting the digital and real worlds.

Hogan's digital universe is divided into a series of different rooms each of which has unique elements reflecting the aesthetic language of the five digital artists who worked on NFTs Hogan Untraditional project.  Past the first room, visitors will enter Finn Berenbroek's world, a metaphysical setting in which stairways and architecture appear and where large iridescent bubbles similar to surreal clouds float by. Next, we will find Vincent Ghiotti's nocturnal and mysterious universe: a vast meadow from which luminous prisms rise; Large colorful roses and abstract geometric figures float in a purple sky in Jimmy Linear's creative vision, and then Silvio Rondelli's with its futuristic colors creating an entity of surreal and dark vibrations. Closing this immersive journey will be the digital scenery that houses Yoann De Geetere's creation, a world that praises nature, with its beauty and uniqueness.
