Corporate stand design for the world leading company manufacturing electronic flat knitting machines and computers at the international trade event showcasing yarns for the knitting sector: Pitti Filati, held in Firenze, Italy.
The concept blends elements and influences from Japanese tradition with the technological innovation that the company embodies.
The new Shima Seiki stand is based on the concept of sustainability, ensuring environmental respect and minimizing waste of temporary materials. The project involves certified sustainable, recycled, and recyclable materials; the structures are dry-assembled with no glue or plaster and are designed to be dismantled and reused multiple times.
At the end of their lifecycle, the materials will be repurposed as construction materials for future stands
