MTG & Cinema Foyer

MTG (Museum, Theatre, Gallery) in Hawkes Bay, commissioned furniture for their new foyer space and cinema foyer.

 

For the main entrance they required a reception area and shop furnishings that could disappear when the room was used for events. A transformable concept. 

A desk and two large wall cabinets were installed in the space. The pink cabinets open to reveal shop display or reception storage/signage. When closed they become neutral sculptural objects. The reception desk has a pared back tablecloth design to imply a connection to the applied arts focus of MTG's collection. The marbled Corian tablecloth has been scalloped and perforated to suggest stitch work.

Mobile shop units on wheels were designed to be combined in a variety of ways to create different display islands, then are pushed away when the space needs to be cleared for events.

The cinema foyer required new service desks for the space. The design pulled inspiration from the existing architecture and striking moderne design.
