The design of the interior was based on a fractured beam of light as it shines through a crystal. Starting at the entrance, the beam entered the space where it became the reception desk before weaving its way throughout to create display cabinets and mannequin display areas that showcased pieces by various designers including Vivienne Westwood and Philip Treacy.

All completed during and under Marmalade. Full event production by Marmalade.

My solution was to suspend the individual pieces on powder-coated hangers and meat hooks, giving the show a 360 degree aesthetic, the garments themselves appeared to float in mid air.  Each hanger featured a laser cut brass number that related to the graphic description grid. A bespoke sound installation completed the experience.

Independent British designer Sophie Hulme sees her designs as individual objects rather than simply part of aseasonal collection. My concept for the website was to use a numbered grid system to categorise and hold theimages together whilst at the same time treating the garments as pieces in their own right.

We created a comprehensive brand identity symbolising motherhood and the essence of the product range in both a graphic and emotive context.

We worked with the client to establish their core brand message of ‘minimum ingredient = maximum results’ which led us to develop the Bloom and Blossom number sequence that became an integral part of the design.

The adult and baby ranges were differentiated through the use of a soft colour palette for the baby products and monochrome for the mothers.

Taking its inspiration from the album title we designed a series of four installations that reflected the essence of symmetry.

Firstly as guests entered they were met with glowing eyes and a huge pile of boxes. The guests walked around to the other side where the image of half a sleeping woman was revealed. The image over 10 meters long, was cut out and pasted over sixty cardboard boxes. This image was then reflected in 300 mirror tiles on the floor to reveal the whole body.

This was accompanied by a sound piece of a beating heart. Secondly a close up image of a young woman’s face was divided down the middle and reflected in a mirror panel to create the perfectly symmetrical face, this installation was placed in a stairwell so that guests only realised it was a reflection when they were so close that they almost walked into the image.

Thirdly sections of a man’s face was divided and recreated over several vintage television screens the face is still except for occasionally an eye would blink or his mouth would move. This too had its own sound installation but this time it was of a radio tuning in occasionally finding a music station and then moving on.

Lastly over 100 pictures of a tree were printed on to vinyl and positioned on the wall as a pixel representation of the original image.

Each greenhouse created a unique ambience; neon lights and suspended furniture reflected the bold graphic prints of the Christian Lacroix collection whilst models decorated miniature cupcakes with brightly coloured icing.

The Soft Gray Collection contained a huge ball of wool that created a web up the stair well, casting fantastic shadows throughout the space. The ball slowly rotated and as guests ascended the stairs they found a model at the top quietly knitting away, attached to the web below. The Unité collection was comprised of a series of multi-directional angle poise lamps. Reams of paper were piled in towers while an injection of colour was added by hundereds of bright orange pencils. As guests ascended the marble staircase a sheltered canopy of umbrellas was revealed.
