The project key concept is based on the Lean Forward “Goatway” (QR Goat). Indeed, the “goatway” represents a metaphorical conception combines synchronically design & technology.
Initially it draws the observer’s attention with the purpose of establishing a visual relationship.
Afterwards, the appealing material dimension of the design is individually retrieved as an instrument of involvement to explore the endless virtual and global discovery.
Therefore, the goat design transforms relationship through technology, into an electronic wider window that instantly connects the observer to an Asian world, in which only reveries rule.
All in all, the QR goat is well established as a leading path to a QR code “goatway”, and likewise a groundbreaking means of transportation that suggests an exclusive lean forward moment.
