Konsepsyon an

Konsènan Find Carrier Fonksyon Prensipal: Estann Ekspozisyon

Tèks Liv: Èkondisyone endispansab nan lavi kontanporen, men li rete espre envizib. Ekspozisyon sa a repozisyone sistèm mekanik yo soti nan enfrastrikti kache pou vin pwotagonis espasyal. Konsevwa tankou yon vil kote moun ka mache, enstalasyon an entegre pwodwi yo andedan volim achitekti, sa ki pèmèt vizitè yo dekouvri sistèm yo atravè mouvman olye ke enstriksyon. Pandan achitekti a fè bak nan fon an, machin yo parèt kòm ajan vizib k ap fòme konfò iben. Pwojè a rekadre teknoloji endistriyèl la kòm yon prezans esansyèl trese nan anviwònman chak jou yo.

Pwopriyete Inik: This exhibition booth transforms the invisibility of air conditioning into a tangible urban experience. A walkable city embeds products within architectural volumes, allowing visitors to discover systems through movement rather than explanation. Each building differs in form, representing diverse environmental conditions and applications. By shifting air conditioning from background utility to visible infrastructure, the project redefines its presence within professional exhibition environments.
Dimansyon & Anbalaj: Exhibition booth size: approximately 15,000 mm x 15,000 mm x 6,000 mm (H).
Venue: Tokyo Big Sight, Japan.
Exhibited at HVAC&R Japan 2026, January 27-30, 2026.
The booth was planned as a large-scale walk-through configuration with uniform illumination to ensure consistent product visibility.
Etikèt: Exhibition booth, Trade show design, Spatial design, Immersive environment, Urban metaphor, Professional exhibition, Brand experience, Infrastructure design, Air conditioning
Teknoloji Pwodiksyon: The booth was realized through a high-density construction combining custom lighting units and handcrafted elements. A total of 212 custom LED light boxes in varied sizes expressed irregular urban light patterns. In contrast, 610 individually cut 3 mm plywood panels with a paper-mounted surface finish represented unlit building windows, forming the city’s background density. Production was divided between off-site fabrication and on-site assembly. Lighting and structure were designed as independent systems for flexibility within a temporary exhibition environment.
Defi Dizayn: The main challenge was determining whether a large-scale, immersive cityscape could function within a B2B-focused trade show. There was concern that the scale, density, and number of elements—particularly the 212 illuminated light boxes—might overwhelm visitors or distract from the products. Construction complexity, time constraints, and high labor costs also posed risks. The project moved forward by trusting the concept and committing to its spatial intensity. As a result, the booth achieved strong visitor engagement and became one of the most visited spaces at the exhibition.
Rechèch: This project was conducted as a spatial experiment to examine whether immersive design could communicate the social role of air conditioning to a professional trade audience. The objective was to test whether an experiential urban environment could replace conventional product-focused displays. A walkable city was constructed, embedding mechanical systems within architectural volumes to enable discovery through movement. The results showed strong visitor engagement, repeated circulation, and increased product inquiries. The research demonstrates that immersive spatial strategy can shift perception, strengthen brand recognition, and generate tangible impact within professional exhibition environments.
Enspirasyon: The project began with a fundamental question: why does air conditioning, despite being essential to contemporary life, remain largely unnoticed? Mechanical systems are intentionally designed to disappear so comfort can exist without awareness. As urban environments grow increasingly complex, air conditioning becomes ever more critical to daily life. This design challenges that invisibility and explores how spatial experience can reveal the hidden infrastructure supporting everyday environments.
Dire Pwojè: The project was developed from July 2025 to January 2026 and exhibited at HVAC&R JAPAN 2026, held from January 27 to January 30, 2026, at Tokyo Big Sight in Tokyo, Japan.
Fliks Operasyon: Visitors enter the booth through a central pathway designed as an urban street and encounter the main air-conditioning product at the city’s center. As they move through the space, visitors naturally stop in front of the machines without signage. Products are discovered by chance within the urban environment. Many visitors complete a full circuit and return. Through immersion in Carrier’s blue city, perceptions of air conditioning shift from an unnoticed background system to an indispensable presence supporting everyday life.
