These iridescent design innovations range from holographic coffee packaging to transparent chairs with a rainbow hue.
Standouts in the furniture realm include Six N. Five's range of eye-catching, leather furniture that is described as "Holo-Scandinavian" by the creative studio. 'The Light Chair,' by Taehwan Kim is another notable example that boasts a color-changing design that is altered by the sunlight's intensity.
Other iridescent design innovations to note include Nike's transparently layered React Element 87 shoe, OMA's holographic wall partitions at Saks Fifth Avenue and P Magazine's 'NSFW' edition which combines suggestive photography with iridescent cover art.
MVRDV's color-changing Beijing Shopping Center facade rounds off this list and speaks to consumers' ongoing appreciation for futuristic architecture and its influence on fashion and lifestyle products, made to embody a clean and contemporary aesthetic.
