Selected work
Kilburn was seeking a reliable and premium fabrication partner that they could trust with highly accurate fabrication and install.
Our job: Help one of the world’s premium brands stage a 45-minute presentation across the three locations that also served as a symbol for sustainable energy management. We used Niagara Falls between New York and Ontario to represent that overwhelming force of natural hydropower.
Following the 45-minute presentation from across the three locations, the kinetic walls opened up and the LED wall retracted off-stage to reveal the Falls. After the presentation, the VIP guests had the opportunity to take some beautiful photos with the vehicle and falls in the background.
The Crystals Mall played host to an exclusive one-day event which gave luxury retailers from the mall each a premium environment to display one of their key products.
