PROJECT: SUN IFORCE CENTER
To integrate a fully functional "proof of concept" lab
within an executive briefing environment, Sun Microsystems
looked to Marketecture expertise to create the vision. Designing
around a myriad of AV and computing technologies, our job
was to carefully integrate marketing sizzle while maintaining
the spontaneity and spirit of innovation of a working lab.
Our solution was to extend computing technology throughout
the space, enveloping the visitor in the Sun experience.
Utilizing hardware equipment racks as a spatial element,
Marketecture conceived of functional lab areas with meeting
spaces on the outer parameter.
Co-located adjacent to the
lab areas were dramatic, glass-enclosed Presentation Silos
with the latest in AV technology. Other technology-infused
touches included a Media Tunnel (space entry) with audio
and fiber-optic lighting synchronized to the user's movements
and the Connected Lifestyles area where visitors could
see future technologies in a "home of tomorrow" setting.
