Takumi craftsmanship is about precision, artistry, and the pursuit of perfection and it’s the philosophy that underpins the world-beating quality of Lexus cars. It’s also a guiding principle for artists who practice the ancient Japanese art of paper folding, aka Origami.

At this years Fest, sponsors Snow’s Motor Group/Lexus Exeter are offering origami taster sessions with the renowned paper artist Caroline Preston. Simply  come to the Lexus stand in Castle Courtyard, and Caroline will take you through the principles of Takumi and the practice of making your own beautiful origami inspired flower, that you can take away.

Takumi is in the DNA of every detail of a Lexus, from the hand-finished interiors to their cutting-edge technology but Omotenashi, the philosophy of exceptional hospitality describes how the cars are designed to feel. By blending time-honoured techniques with modern innovation, Lexus create cars that are as refined and luxurious as they are exhilarating. To get a taste of this ‘Exceptional Hospitality’ the friendly team from Snows are on hand to answer question and give insights into their cutting edge Lexus cars.
