The innovation showcase_Cotec Headquarters installations

The brief

Showcase design pieces for the front windows of the Cotect Foundation new offices in the center of Madrid, to officially present to the public, its initiatives and contents. As well as to serve as an eye-catcher, generating impact and providing character and personality to the headquarters.

The Solution.

An intervention in the space that connects the foundation with the public with two installations that generate an active listening system on the cloud and an open conversation with citizens both running in real-time on site and remote.

The Datascopio

The Main window installation is taking inspiration from the Cotec foundation, using the metaphor of the innovation observatory.

The Datascopio is looking at the cloud in real time to see how the conversations evolve around themes where innovation must be involved. All the results are shown with animations that represent different scales to highlight the most relevant concepts.

The Informatron

Installed In the corner window of the building, a sculptural reactive LED lamp sincronize with a CMS animation system that also allows to create a real-time conversation with the public.

LED LIGHT FRAMES
