HM Border Force asked us to design a sustainable exhibition stand for the Southampton Boat Show. Their goal was clear: create their most engaging presence yet, while reducing environmental impact at every stage.

We created a distinctive, interactive space that brought Border Force’s maritime work to life. 

A Border Force jet ski formed a standout centrepiece, supported by digital screens and a special appearance from a Border Force search dog helped draw additional footfall and created genuine moments of connection.

We also incorporated a UK coastline map and links to Project Kraken to encourage conversations around maritime crime reporting, helping turn the stand into an educational touchpoint as well as a visual attraction.

Eco‑Friendly Materials and Low‑Carbon Production Choices

• Replaced plastics with fibre‑based, recyclable packaging aligned with event recycling policies.
• Recycled or responsibly sourced materials for all merchandise.
• Printed collateral on recycled paper, with carbon offset through verified UK tree‑planting initiatives.
• Designed a modular exhibition stand that’s built for repeated use.
• Used PVC‑free substrates throughout the display.

HM Border Force’s sustainable exhibition stand delivered strong long‑term value through a modular design that reduces waste, lowers future costs and supports environmentally responsible event production.

The stand earned second place in the Southampton Boat Show’s Environmental Awards and achieved exceptional engagement, with visitor interaction more than doubling compared with the previous year despite lower overall attendance, demonstrating the impact of smart design, clear storytelling and interactive features.

GARMIN tasked us with designing, manufacturing, and installing a standout shop-in-shop (SIS) for GO Outdoors’ largest European store in York. The objective was to create an eye-catching, immersive space that reflects GARMIN’s rugged, high-performance ethos across its outdoor, running, and cycling product categories.​

Our Retail & Brand Experience team developed a bold design concept that blended form and function. From 3D renders to technical drawings, we created a premium retail environment using layered storytelling and high-impact visuals. The space featured:

• A large play table showcasing GARMIN’s product range
• A dramatic back wall for campaign storytelling
• A totem-style unit for specialist InReach devices
• Integrated digital signage and backlit TFS graphics for dynamic & future content

With just four weeks from design sign-off to launch, our in-house project managers led every stage including site surveys, production, and installation, coordinating closely with both GARMIN and GO Outdoors to deliver on time for the official store opening.

The result is a dynamic, brand-led space that invites exploration, enhances the shopper journey, and flexes for future campaigns. This format is now being rolled out across other stores.

KitchenAid had secured a high footfall space within Harrods for a pop-up retail customer experience. This was to support the launch of their iconic stand mixer and blender in their Colour of the Year, Hibiscus.

A vivid fuchsia with a matte finish, the Colour of the Year is inspired by the captivating beauty of the Hibiscus flower in a verdant garden, standing out on your countertop just as it does in nature.

Our team began by presenting three proposals, ranging from conservative to innovative, that would  intrigue customers to engage with the display. Using a Hibiscus secret garden theme, we finalised our concepts.

The proposals were to be submitted a few weeks prior to manufacturing deadlines, including technical drawings, fire certification and build schedules, so our team needed to work within tight deadlines.

The installation had to be fully completed outside of trading hours, meaning around the clock installation before the store opens, which was all managed by our specialist installation team.

“The team went above and beyond to make this project possible, working to very tight deadlines and strict criteria. Nothing was ever too much trouble.  The team’s dedication and attention to detail from start to finish ensured delivery of a quality display that fit perfectly into the Harrods store environment. We also hugely appreciate Lee working through the night to complete the installation and then taking the time to meet with the brand team the next day for sign off.”

Hoya is driven by a passion for partnership and innovation. They needed a new display to showcase their lenses and wanted them to be more sustainable than the existing ones they were using.

For the first campaign we used bamboo instead of aluminum and plastic and Katz Board instead of normal cardboard.

We made all display bases re-usable and everything modular so Hoya doesn’t need to switch the whole display for each campaign.
