GRAFT won the competition to create an imaginative and innovative exhibition stand for showcasing the NBC Universal Television Network’s Sci-Fi Channel brand. As an identifiable icon of the sci-fi world, the aim of the stand was to attract consumers and engage them with the channel’s identity and programming.

Sci-Fi Channel Stand

As a departure from traditional exhibition design, in which space is defined through the classic architectural expression of wall, floor, and ceiling, the Sci-Fi Channel exhibition stand grafted these tectonic features into a continuous sculptural form that allocated zones of occupancy while simultaneously satisfying specific functional requirements.

The stand thus became a freestanding, autonomous object in which furniture, audio, video, and multimedia elements were incorporated, projected upon, and disseminated from its performative, modulated fiberglass skin.
