The apple store's layout is very simple, more of the modernist thing. One cool thing is that those huge banners above the tables that are off to the side are all up there by velcro, which is interesting. I also really liked the app. banner that they have at the front of the store. I like the "airy" idea, something that shows off the works more than the platforms that are holding the works. Especially if we are looking this to be re-usable for the next spring show, or to use somewhere in the department. I was trying to devise some sort of contraption that would hold posters with minimal effort but I haven't tested it yet, so I'm unsure that it will succeed under a stress test.
Micah,
ReplyDeletegood job noticing the Velcro, its those little details that will help us put this show together quickly and make it more interchangeable. I love the look of the light that glows behind mac's posters because it contributes to the floating feeling. I was thinking this year, we could have a standard size poster submission to create a visual consistency and aid our layout process.
