TMNT LAIR

Exhibit Design, Retail Design, Experiential Marketing

The convention hall disappears as one passes through the broken sewer tube into the stylized dank sewer lair from Nick’s Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles brand. The sound of water dripping echoes through the space while sirens and footsteps reverberate from the street level. Layers of sewer grating creates the street level and Manhattan looms overhead mapped onto giant prints. A multitude of interactive areas such as sewer tubes, periscopes, pinball machines and surveilance monitors reveal trailers and sneak-peak footage of the new TMNT. Visitors exit through a sewer tube with display portals flowing into the Nick Shop.

7,500 square foot exhibit space for THQ

Private demonstrations are held in theaters built of glowing translucent walls on the inside and a lit pixel motif wrapping the outer surface.

For the live broadcast tournament finals of Riot’s League of Legends, NON designed the stage set, which was watched by an audience of 1000 live and millions online.

PACKIT

Exhibit Design, Graphic Design, Fabrication

For PACKiT’s new line of freezable personal coolers, they wanted to create a colorful kitchen atmosphere to demo and display the product. Like a cutaway set, it would combine both functional and faux fixtures, branded lifestyle imagery and illustrated iconic kitchen elements. With minimal size, weight and assembly, it housed lit cabinets to showcase products, a central demo island, refrigerator and chest freezer hidden within the base cabinets.

 

NICKELODEON

Exhibit Design, Fabrication, Project Management, On-site Supervision

This 50′ X 20′ Licensing Expo exhibit for Nickelodeon transformed elements from the brand into a three dimensional space filled with texture and tactile experiences. Visitors are greeted by a reception desk filled with ping-pong balls while meetings are held at tables in the shapes of a scrambled “n-i-c-k-e-l-o-d-e-o-n”. A sixteen-foot wide photo-op wall made of hundreds of projecting tubes creates the backdrop of the booth and a media display with TV and iPads show the upcoming Nick shows.

 

MITOSIS LIGHTS

Interactive Design, Lighting Design, Engineering, Fabrication, Installation

Mitosis is a modular lighting system that is always changing and enables users to not only control the amount of light being emitted, but the patterns, shapes and impressions that the lights create. Glowing colored orbs illuminate when touched once and return to their off states when touched again. Mitosis takes lighting out of the object world and into the realm of the spatial environment.

GOOD LAUNCH

Design, Event Design, Fabrication, Installation

For the launch of the first issue of GOOD Magazine, NON was asked to transform the historical St. Vibiana’s Cathedral into an atmosphere that would reflect the company’s eco-friendly philosophy. Our approach was to abstract the concept of “landscape” and creating functional elements that would provide lounging areas, lighting and intimate mingling spaces. The design included custom TOPO seating platforms, bars and a lit fabric “cloud” hovering above the seating areas.
