The Jaguar showroom looks PLAIN, BORING and CHEAP. Just compare it to the LEXUS and you would see whay I mean.

Lexus show room...

Maybe the difference between the Jaguar and Lexus is that with the Jaguar, you already know the brand value. While with the Lexus, you still have to impress the customer that the Lexus car he/she is buying is more than just a re-branded Toyota luxury sedan...

The Lexus showroom is more posh... more Asianic in tastes versus the Germanic austerity of the Jaguar showroom.

Wouldn't call either "cheap", though.

Certainly, the elegance of Jaguars, inside and out, is far above and beyond Lexus and most of the German brands save Porsche. The interiors of Porsche's cars are on the same level, though between the quirky futuristic XJ and the squatting frog Panamera, I know which one I'd rather have...

It does look like an SM mall. Just look at the Cheap tile flooring. The walls are plain. Lighting is Generic.

As a contractor, you can see Tinipid itong showroom in terms of materials and finishing.

As someone who personally knows Mr. Soong, he is on the KURIPOT side.

German austerity? I never knew Jaguar was German. Indian perhaps, but never German.

not all clients are into nicely-interior-designed showrooms, but of course having one is a plus, sino naman ang may ayaw.

As long as it is clean and shiny. Besides, the product needs to stand out. Like most museums, all white para mas versatile sa displays na exhibit.

But i have to agree, its a little bland.

Some people are into Minimalist and some are not. Minsan pa nga pure concrete finish lang (e.g. Archt Tadao Ando)

Now, about customer lounges, yan ay ibang usapan naman.
