Background

Working in partnership with event production company Robert Lawrence, FIX8Group had the privilege of providing technical services to the world-renowned luxury French jewellers Van Cleef and Arpels at their (annual fashion show?)

The challenge

The client was interested in creating a stunning interactive environment for diners using LED screen built into table tops allowing content in front of them to tie in with projection mapped effects all around the room. Building LED screen into dining tables presented a number of challenges from, among others, protecting the technology to making it safe for diners.

The solution

As it was not a viable option to have tableware placed directly on the screen itself, some form of protection was needed. This would come in the form of acrylic sheets, which across a 22 metre table would become very heavy and damage the screen. The solution to this problem was to use (full product name) transparent LED as the spacing between pixels allowed enough room to build support for the acrylic and table decoration which came in the form of 2 metre water trays, again adding weight.

Fix8Group 3D printed custom tools to allow the installation and removal of the screen in very tight spaces. Cooling fans were also integrated to not only stop the screen from overheating but also to keep guests comfortable. All of this had to be done within a very tight window, with an overnight install working around several other teams, all while ensuring the finished look would match the very high standards of the client.

Conclusion

Despite the technical challenges of this project, every element was installed and performed flawlessly thanks to our highly skilled team and a reliable, quality product. The event was a huge success, the room looked truly beautiful and our partners and clients were thrilled with the outcome.
