VF Corporation
A digital showroom experience in the heart of London
VF Corporation has commissioned us to design an experiential brand showcase of elevated design and rich storytelling, located in the heart of London at Axtell House. We helped the brand to create a digitally connected and intelligent building. It features custom video walls and cinema surround-sound to immerse customers in the unique vision of each brand. Avatar- based virtual mannequins showcase key seasonal looks in 3D, which are designed to manufacturable specifications - transforming VF’s supply chain. Users can even use the touch screen displays to change the lighting and visualise the products in different scenarios, inspiring them to place wholesale orders from the interactive digital selling display stations.

Part of the brief was to scope furniture for all of the floors. We partnered with ALU furniture from Italy to produce bespoke, modular furniture units for each of the floors. ML projects custom fabricated these and built in furniture units. These included the hero walls, brand panels and any other custom fitting for each floor and brand. Shown are some of the individual units we designed.
In order for the client to visualise the scale of the project. We completely modelled each floors (4 floors in total) and rendered semi- realistic views. We created stills as well as walkthrough videos, allowing the client to understand the materials and colours, the organisation of space as well as the user flows.
