Production Technology

In order to avoid heavy weight hanging, materials like Aluminum, plexiglass, mesh, were used to create all hanging and geometric elements. The furniture, props, lighting and LED screens were hired. Personalized and printed carpets covered the exhibition hall flooring. Installations made out of greenery and vegetal were spread out all over. Extra-large size decorative gates as well as 3D letters were made out of thick printed cardboard. Aesthetic and modern floral compositions completed the decoration in the conference halls and VIP lounge.

Design Challenge

The most challenging part was finding a design concept different from any previous design concept used for this fair. The most important aspect was the design had to heighten the public perception and awareness of the MUNIEXPO.One additional challenge was to find the right materials which would help us create the vision of the design accurately without being neither too heavy nor too expensive, so they can pass all authorizations.

Research

The research began with analyzing innovation and news of the moment around the city of tomorrow, smart city, sustainability etc.
The design was intended to drive the visitor into the city of tomorrow he came to discover through the different showcases, international developers and product representatives. To relate the theme to this industry, series of settings were built under the vertical city concept for the exhibition treatment. Selected colors, textures and lighting elements were used to refer to the innovative/futuristic and ecologic side of the project.

Inspiration

Inspiration for the MUNIEXPO design concept derived from the topic of innovation pertaining to Smart Cities. This led us to creating a 3D design to stimulate the imagination of the visitor with the feeling of finding himself in a city of tomorrow.
Land is becoming scarce as the world's population grows and environmental changes shrink the amount of livable space on Earth. Build up seems to be a solution for Sustainable Living, hence Vertical city above an increasing urbanized world.

Project Duration

The project duration was 4 months from initial briefing to onsite completion. It was launched on the 18th of February 2020 and ran for 3 days. Only 2 days were allowed for the move in and onsite set up. MUNIEXPO was located at the Tel Aviv Fairground in Tel Aviv, Israel.

Operation Flow

The flow starts with a modern registration and welcoming hall, where led light designs, decorative gates and large size installations were spread out to draw the attention of the visitor. Inside the exhibition hall dramatic lighting and interactive experiences enabled a heightened visual story telling experience. A hall for speakers with a mix of urban sustainable and futuristic look was accessible from the exhibition space.
The second floor was reachable from the welcome hall.
