News Release | Design Don | Goodrich Global 3rd September 2012

Mr. Chan Chong Beng, chairman of Goodrich Global Pte Ltd, says that good design has to be simple yet profound – just like his home and his LS600H.

Your’re clearly an advocate of good design and a man of great taste. What drew you to the Lexus 600H?

This car is the epitome of good design. It has a sleek exterior and an amazing interior. I was also drawn to it because it’s a powerful yet environmentally friendly car.

How does your car and home complement each other with regards to design?

In terms of design, my car and home are both understated yet luxurious. There’s attention to detail too. They both have a quality to them that exudes a sense of sophistication without being too ostentatious

When did you buy this car?

I actually bought the car about two years ago for my birthday and team Lexus celebrated it with me when the car was delivered. It is probably one of the best purchases I’ve made!

Tell us the concept that you had when designing your new home.

I carefully thought out all the details in my home – from materials and design used in my upholstery, curtain, wallpaper and carpets to the type of lighting and showpieces selected. I wanted my house to be functional, but still comfortable and stylish at the same time.

If the Lexus LS600H were wallpaper, what kind of texture would it have?

It would be velvety smooth, pleasant to the touch and pleasing to the eye.

What do you think of the Lexus LS600H’s Hybrid technology?

I think that green technology is a great idea and hybrid technology, in particular, is also the way into the future. The hybrid system from Lexus is, to me, a technological feat.

What is good design to you? Did the Lexus LS600H meet your expectations in terms of design?

Good design to me is simple yet profound. It has to subtly catch the eye without trying too hard. The Lexus LS 600H meets all of my expections.
