VIP LOUNGE
Each year, Ruinart, the oldest champagne house in the world, commissions an artist to create a new champagne-inspired artwork.
We created this sleek branded VIP event space using the sculpture created by Dutch artist Piet Hein Eek as a centerpiece.
The immaculate surface finish was achieved using printed walls, enabling us to even pre-determine the position of the screw holes to hang the shadow-gap graphics, meaning that installation was extraordinarily quick and efficient.
The finished result was a sophisticated space, which looked calm and collected for one or two guests, yet could easily accommodate many more for their champagne events.
NEAL STREET FLAGSHIP STORE
The Natural Shoe Store wanted to re-design its client retail experience whilst maintaining its eco-philosophy.
Stripping back the original space enabled us to design the store as well as the furniture and fittings as a whole.
Using wood, leather and cold-rolled steel alongside displays made from re-crafted salvage furniture, we provided a relaxed but energising environment and individually designed displays to beautifully showcase the shoes.
MASTERPIECE VIP LOUNGE AREA
This year’s lounge was designed to have a contemporary gallery feel. Privacy was achieved with louvred walls creating intriguing views into the space and to the Edward Burtynsky artworks.
Beyond this space was the more intimate lounge area with bespoke fitted furniture - perfect for clients to take a break from the bustle of this busy fair.
Textures and surface finishes played an important role in creating a luxury feel, with simulated skylights adding light to the space in a playful way.
VIP LOUNGE - MASTERPIECE
The Royal Bank of Canada asked us once again to design and produce their lounge at the entrance to the Masterpiece fair.
Handmade banquette seating with luxurious velvet-covered cushion pads created a chic and sophisticated environment to both appreciate art and do business.
All benches, tables and the bar were made to spec in our workshop and adorned with either gold metal, blue velvet or a terrazzo which gave a truly luxurious feel.
Large expanses of walling were expertly placed to create ideal display areas for the work of Canadian artists Shannon Bool and Mark Lewis, whilst two full-height gold perforated metal sliding doors added a feel of permanence whilst also giving some practicality to hosting private events.
MASTERPIECE 2018
Our brief from this new client at the fair was to create an environment which has flexibility to host a number of ranging events but, at the same time, provide a space that reflects the originality and quality of this world-class development.
The use of plush green velvets, quilted velvets, an abundance of beautiful plants and flowers, laser-cut gold wall panels and subtle lighting gave this lounge a truly sumptuous feel.
THE LSO IN THE CITY
4D Projects created an outdoor installation in Broadgate Circus in the heart of the City of London, based around the amazing photographs of the London Symphony Orchestra taken by Alberto Venzago.
Enlarging the photos to 3x6m meant that office workers overlooking the space could experience the installation.
Within the space, visitors could completely lose themselves in the power of the music and scale of the images.
The exhibition was then re-built overnight in the Sage Centre, Gateshead.
SWATCH
The archive of Marlyse Schmid and Bernard Muller, designers of the Swatch watch, contains more than 4,000 pieces including watches, prototypes, technical plans, artwork, drawings and letters.
Our challenge was to exhibit the collection in a way that demonstrated their importance at the same time as reinforcing the functional aesthetic of plastic and metal.
The individual wall-mounted showcases curved out to surround the viewer in the Swatch world of quality design, engineering, pop art and fun fashion.

Briefed with creating an inviting airy terrace space, we used clever design/styling to mask this temporary event marquee structure.
The Chelsea Barracks development is a modern take on the classic London garden squares, which we carried forward to their VIP terrace lounge.
This exhibition incorporated AV sound stations as well as localised audio zones to reinforce the cultural connection between Hennessy and the grime music scene.
Archive Hennessy materials are woven into the story in our bespoke secure museum quality showcases, both freestanding and built-in to the listed venue.
We created this branded lounge space to promote LifeWtr to showcase the work of selected artists.
As part of the design of the space, we created bespoke furniture including benches, bean-bags, product displays as well as floating side-tables that incorporated mobile phone charging stations.
