We were commissioned to design and create giant plant installations for an exhibition stand at Glee garden and outdoor living show at the NEC in Birmingham. We used a combination of photographic and printing techniques along with hand made plant structures and painstakingly finished flowers and leaves. The finished plants were mounted into custom made display stands/planters – these were designed to showcase the range of products available.
Giant wood effect hand
We created this huge hand for the National Theatre out of sculpted polystyrene with a painted wood effect.
Have a look at our video clip here.
Liberty Ab Fab atrium
For the launch of Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie, we created this display of giant glittered ‘Ab Fab’ letters. These were hung in the Liberty central atrium below a huge 5m ring supporting pink slash curtain and shimmer discs. It looks fabulous Sweetie!
Giant Bear
This 5m tall bear was made as a centrepiece to the John Lewis press show 2013.
We went through several stages to produce the final piece – from initial designs and clay models to carving the structure of the bear and cladding it with the panels to give a paper engineered effect.
Modular Structure
This structure of geometric shapes was designed to fit over a dining table & chairs. To give a glow of light around the dining table, led lights were hidden within parts of the structure.
Creative Room Sets
We have created many room sets in all kinds of styles for product launches and press events.
Here is a selection of sets which feature some more creative elements – such as reclaimed materials, textured walls and special paint effects.
Birch Trees
Our own method of reproducing a birch tree effect has been used on numerous projects.
We have produced them for theatre, opera, shop display, fashion shows & product launches.
Sizes have been varied – ranging from small display plinths to half a dozen huge 7m tall trunks for a theatrical production.
Samsung Spaceship
We designed and built this internally lit structure to showcase Samsung’s exciting new and innovative products at a press event. The structure was made up of ribs with a lycra covering stretched over the top. Between the ribs and in the centre, shelves and desk areas were added for product display and demonstration. A floor with built in lighting was used to complete the effect.
Textiles Projects
These projects show a variety of work and techniques using textiles.
Gifting Event
This press event was designed to showcase special products for Christmas. Each area focused on one of the five senses. So, for example, the large white rubik’s cube (touch) room features different textures on each panel, the coffee crate room (taste) was set up as a pop up coffee bar, the lycra clad ‘candle’ (smell) featured shelves inside with scented candles displayed on them.
Mini houses
We created over 140 miniature houses for the ‘What? House’ awards ceremony at the Grosvenor House Hotel. Each table decoration was unique – with hand cut windows and doors, mosaic tiled roofs and coloured lights inside.
Electrolux Design Lab
Electrolux hold an annual contest for creative design students around the world.
The students compete to show their most innovative ideas, and prototypes are then made of the final designs.
We designed and built this stand to showcase the prototypes in Oxford Street.
