We were invited to enter an ideas competition for a technology show to be held in a 62,700 sq ft space at Fort Mason. The goal was to design a project to “showcase a bold and inspiring vision of the future of communication, design, energy, entertainment, health, the home, space, security, and transportation.” The organizers asked for an environment that would support a few thematically separate major exhibits and a large number of independent minor exhibits. Our solution was to design a series of large pods for the major exhibitors that would be acoustically isolated from the rest of the show and a network of circulation channels to house the smaller exhibits. The channels would act as non-linear circulation ribbons that would increase the visibility of the smaller exhibits by allowing the exhibitors to embed informational displays, lighting, and storage into a continuous form.
