Introduction
"Future-The Moving Beauty", the world's most prestigious luxury train was transformed from the Chu-Kuang Express. In 2020, the "Future" received the top honor in Japan - the Good Design Award. "Future - The Moving Kitchen" won the iF Gold Medal and the Service Experience Design Award at the 2023 iF Design Awards in Germany, which further introduced the culture and connotation of Taiwan's aesthetically pleasing sightseeing trains to the world stage.
The interior and exterior of the train were blended into a natural, local, and rustic atmosphere.
The titanium headboard reflects the true beauty of Taiwan in a mirror image.
The smiley curve engraved on the headboard echoes the V-shaped pattern of the Chu-Kuang Express, which is retained on the front of the train, symbolizing the history of the Chu-Kuang Express.
The ten-layer circular structure implies ten perfections.
