                DSM | FIE show, Paris
                Challenge:
                kubik recently completed a new exhibit environment for multi-national
                health, nutrition and materials company, DSM. The 250 m2 square
                meter stand, which debuted at Food Ingredients Europe (FIE) in Paris,
                translates DSM’s new corporate identity guidelines into a clean, white
                “Supermarket of the Future.”


                Highlights:
                A key feature is the clutter-free digital depiction of products and shelves
                displayed on 55” LCD touch monitors. Touching individual products
                brings up additional information including a list of DSM ingredients
                included in each product. Interactions with customers, data collection,
                and fulfillment are all conducted electronically via tablet device enabling
                a clutter and paper-free exhibit. “Technology will drive the exhibits of the
                future, from lead generation to content delivery to measurement,” says
                Hajo Reinders, Managing Director of the European office from kubik in
                Amsterdam.


                Results:
                Due to the very successful format of the exhibit, the interactive concept
                will be used at upcoming shows of DSM Nutritional Products and DSM
                Food Specialties. The environmental setting, that kubik has also created
                for other divisions within the DSM corporation, will be the starting-point
                for upcoming exhibits for DSM around the world.

                Brookfield
                Challenge:
                Brookfield Asset Management is a global asset manager focused on
                property, renewable power and infrastructure assets. They rank among
                the world’s leaders with approximately $150 billion of assets under
                management, including extensive retail shopping centre properties.
                With that in mind, their new booth for the ICSC show was intended to be
                contemporary and stylish on one hand, and a showcase for sustainable,
                efficient management on the other.


                Highlights:
                kubik worked with detailed designs from Lorenc+Yoo to create a shining
                example of what can be achieved using the simplest of materials such
                as acrylic panels, painted laminates, naugahyde, and a touch of carrara
                marble. Two features stood out above all: One was the huge 16 ft x 12
                ft seamless video wall with upholstered seating in the viewing area.
                The other was the surprisingly generous set of private meeting rooms,
                each with comfortable furniture, ideal lighting and full audio/video
                equipment.

                Results:
                The new Brookfield booth provided an ideal venue for serious business
                discussion, in an environment that reflected the best qualities of the
                assets the company has under management. The strong yet understated
                statement was a perfect reflection of the Brookfield brand.

                Trojan Technologies
                Challenge:
                Trojan Technologies is the market leader in UV water treatment
                technology, respected for producing Ultraviolet technologies that are
                cleaner, greener and more efficient than chlorine based systems. Their
                mission is expressed in the phrase “Water Confidence” - the peace
                of mind that comes from knowing your water is truly clean. Trojan
                recently challenged kubik to find a tradeshow interpretation of “Water
                Confidence” that would reinforce their brand strength and have a big
                impact on visitors.


                Highlights:
                With the tranquility of a Zen garden as inspiration, the kubik team created
                the Trojan “Peace of Mind” campaign. The exhibit space was defined by
                surrounding walls of upright acrylic tubes that mimicked bamboo, with
                many of them internally lit to suggest Trojan’s UV lamp technology. Inside
                the booth, we created a modern Japanese rock garden with Trojan’s
                unique UV lamps and purification equipment serving as the stones and
                the traffic flow moving around them as the sand. Featured throughout
                were graphics of people meditating near pools of water and bamboo
                fountains.


                Results:
                When combined with a kubik designed program of interactive activities
                before and during the show, was everything Trojan expected it to be.

                Bayer
                Challenge:
                Brand image and flexibility were MaClaren Momentum’s chief directives
                when it reached out to kubik to create an in-line exhibit for Bayer
                CropScience. Bayer required a sleek and contemporary exhibit—with
                modular construction to accommodate a variety of ceiling heights and
                space configurations ranging from 10’ x 10’ to 20’ x 20’.


                Highlights:
                A unique sheen was created by finishing custom millwork with
                pearlescent automotive paint. Bayer’s green and blue logo glowed
                against white towers located at either side of the exhibit, an effect created
                by rear-lighting 3D plexi letters. Rear-lit fabric graphics gave the exhibit
                additional pop. Meanwhile, modular components accommodated inline
                floor plan options up to 10’ x 40’ and a finished backside ensured that the
                exhibit could also be used in island configurations.


                Results:
                Both Bayer CropScience and Maclaren Momentum delivered rave
                reviews, saying the finished exhibit is as beautiful as it is versatile.

                SPX Power Energy
                Challenge:
                SPX’s objective was to make itself known as the parent company
                behind a dozen well known, industry-specific manufacturing brands.
                The challenge was to design a clean and visually consistent exhibit that
                would communicate this positioning while showcasing SPX’s wide range
                of brands and products.


                Highlights:
                kubik found inspiration in the green “X” in the SPX logo—actually two
                green chevrons meeting—and in the company’s tagline, “Where ideas
                meet industry.” Converging angles throughout the exhibit reiterated
                this messaging while fields of green visually linked exhibit components
                to the logo. Clean and open, the environment exuded an ambiance
                of professionalism and organization—despite the presence of large
                industrial products and components. Use of printed fabric panels
                minimized costs.


                Results:
                SPX communicated its parent company status with style and elegance.

                One Lambda
                Challenge:
                One lambda wanted a dramatic and engaging new exhibit that reflected
                their leadership in the medical resource industry. They asked kubik to
                provide a new custom rental booth, and meet a specific installation
                challenge: a hotel ballroom setting with an 10 foot height limit.


                Highlights:
                kubik designed a solution that fit all of the criteria and more. The
                highlight of the booth was the plasma wall playing a highly detailed
                and engaging video that introduced the company and its offerings. Bold
                colors complemented the floor-to-ceiling light boxes and demo kiosks,
                and a large work surface gave space for real time demonstrations.

                Results:
                The booth had an open feel, with room for undisturbed and intimate
                conversation. The effect was a striking and memorable statement from
                an industry leader.

                Daimler Alliance
                Challenge:
                For the Alliance Parts exhibit kubik created a space with a distinct
                NASCAR theme incorporating the new Alliance brand look.


                Highlights:
                Replica concrete and chain-link barriers create a racetrack perimeter and
                form the edges of the booth, while also providing space for graphics
                and display areas. A terraced “grand stand” provides a 30’ long product
                display while counters made from mechanic’s toolboxes offer a space for
                computer workstations to navigate product catalogues, build your own
                bumper or to enter the Alliance NASCAR sweepstakes. A finish line floor
                treatment and a printed fan backdrop complete the experience.

                Results:
                As an overarching theme, this statement collectively connects the
                Alliance brand to racing and its NASCAR sponsorship, while also
                communicating that Alliance has the ability to get you where you’re
                going; fast!.

                Cadillac | General Motors
                Challenge:
                Cadillac required an exhibit that merged its design vision with the
                functionality required on the auto show circuit. kubik’s expert engineering
                and fabrication delivered. The resulting environment remained true to
                the design by Maclaren Momentum—yet was easy to assemble and
                transport.


                Highlights:
                The design integrated a pair of 40’ long by 20’ high structures comprised
                of angled panels that resembled the cut facets of a gemstone. Elegant
                finish materials included glass, mesh, fabric, tile, leather, steel and mirror.
                Structural components within the structure were both sturdy and
                lightweight. Two “kits” of properties were fabricated to accommodate a
                rigorous show schedule.

                Results:
                The exhibit brought the client’s vision to life while fulfilling all logistical
                and functional criteria.

                Hyundai
                Challenge:
                Hyundai’s theme, “well engineered” embodied the challenge to adapt its
                global design standard to meet the needs and challenges of the North
                American market. This included elevating the brand experience to reflect
                the quality of Hyundai’s well-engineered, increasingly more upscale line.


                Highlights:
                Every aspect of the exhibit was purposefully selected to convey
                commitment to quality and innovation. kubik upped the ante with the
                addition of a full raised floor inlaid with black, blue and gloss-white
                surfaces. Walls and identity structure were built from tension fabric
                applied over cost-saving, lightweight metal frames. Infusion of Hyundai
                blue LED lighting throughout the space symbolized continuity of
                engineering. The visitor experience included displays that communicated
                technology stories—and a gallery of Hyundai achievements.

                Results:
                The well engineered and detailed exhibit reflected Hyundai’s standard
                of quality.

                Nissan
                Challenge:
                Nissan’s direction was clear: translate its Innovation for All corporate
                campaign into its exhibit program. To succeed, this exhibit had to
                embody Nissan’s commitment to industry-leading innovation, both in
                its flagship models and its vehicle lineup.


                Highlights:
                kubik translated this directive into a single line, a rectilinear ribbon of
                sorts, which represented the idea of innovation. Sometimes horizontal,
                sometimes vertical, the ribbon ran through the entire exhibit—signifying
                the innovation that runs through every Nissan product. Visitors
                journeying along the ribbon experienced feature vehicles, technology
                stories and interactive displays.


                Results:
                By utilizing fabric fabrication for a portion of the structure, kubik reduced
                the weight and shipping bulk of the exhibit—which translated into
                multiple cost efficiencies. The exhibit will travel across the Canadian
                Auto Show Circuit throughout 2012.

                AUTO RAI | Amsterdam Motor Show
                Challenge:
                The organizers of the Amsterdam Motor Show had a tough 3-part
                challenge for kubik: develop a totally new concept for this automotive
                exhibition, reduce the cost of participation by 80%, and at the same
                time make sure every visitor enjoyed a total overview of all available car
                brands and models.


                Highlights:
                kubik proposed a radical idea: we would group the vehicles not by
                manufacturer, but by how they are used! Vehicles were placed in
                thematic environments that grouped the cars and light trucks into six
                specific “worlds”: Family & Travel; Cabrio; Luxury & Sport; Adventure;
                City & Compact; and Green Innovations. A unique graphic language
                was developed for each world, featuring spectacular images of the
                participating car brands. Individual brand lounges were erected in a
                dedicated exhibition hall as reception areas for car manufactures and
                dealers.

                Results:
                kubik’s concept helped the Amsterdam Motor Show prosper despite
                difficult economic conditions. The new concept was a cost-efficient
                solution for participating car brands and more than 220,000 visitors saw
                the latest car models in an entirely new way.

                Michelin
                Challenge:
                For their new booth at CONEXPO – CON/AGG and MINE Expo in Las
                Vegas, Michelin had three directives for kubik: make it new, fresh and
                spectacular; make it modular and transportable; and make it to follow
                Michelin’s corporate visual guidelines. Just the sort of challenge we
                enjoy!


                Highlights:
                kubik’s idea for Michelin was to use all of the space we had – both
                horizontal and vertical. The main level was for product display and was
                dressed with large images of product at work around the world. Above
                that was an 800 sq.ft. upper deck that was used as a meeting space with
                a large office, closed door internet lounge, and social area with a serving
                bar and lots of soft seating. Above that was an 18’ diameter ring with
                3 large logos. Components featured boldly curved surfaces and blue
                glowing walls, all strategically lit to draw attention to Michelin products
                on display throughout.

                Results:
                CONEXPO - CON/AGG and MINE Expo are the biggest Construction/
                Aggregate and Mining shows in North America, and the new Michelin
                booth stood out and made a spectacular visual impact – and was a true
                reflection of Michelin brand quality.

                Visual Sonics
                Challenge:
                As a world leader in high-resolution micro imaging systems, Visual
                Sonics sees its tradeshow program as a way to connect professionals
                in new ways. Their new kubik-designed booth had to serve as a live
                demonstration environment that could highlight and promote Visual
                Sonics products on the show floor – even in a limited space.


                Highlights:
                The “organic” geometry of the Visual Sonics logo depicts the “focusing
                on cell division” which is the core of the company’s mission. The kubik
                team captured that idea in a 3-dimensional form by creating a flowing,
                energetic form that rose above the booth and made a strong visual
                impact. A reception desk presides over the space in an open corner, and
                3 double-sided work-stations, each with graphics suitable for a specific
                demonstration, help draw visitors into the stand from all sides.


                Results:
                The new booth creates maximum impact in minimum space, and the
                unified shapes, colors and graphic treatment fortify the brand impression.

                Caterpillar
                Challenge:
                Think of a forklift, and you’ll likely think about strength and power. So
                it’s no surprise that exhibits for forklift manufacturers tend to look the
                same. Caterpillar, wanting to take a different tack during a major show in
                Utrecht, Holland, asked kubik to help.


                Highlights:
                “Lift your mind” was our creative concept for an eye-catching, all new
                show stand. Caterpillar’s machinery occupied centre stage, but behind
                it stood a lounge-café that provided a refuge of peace and relaxation for
                weary show-goers – an environment that dovetailed perfectly with a key
                client message: Caterpillar solutions help users work in a relaxed way.

                Results:
                kubik helped set Caterpillar apart from its competitors by steering away
                from the expected. What’s more, in a sea of predictable presentations,
                Caterpillar was lifted above the pack with a solidly branded message.

                Grolsch
                Challenge:
                “You have beer, and then you have Grolsch.” A defining statement that
                has been setting the tone for Grolsch stand presentations for years. Our
                challenge was to create an exhibit that welcomed and invited visitors
                and fully supported Grolsch’s position.


                Highlights:
                kubik designed an environment that blended the old with the new,
                showcasing the fact that while Grolsch is one of the oldest breweries
                in the world, its beers still have true modern appeal. The innovative
                modular stand featured hundreds of traditional bottles with Grolsch’s
                famous logo along with modern photographs of the brand.

                Results:
                This innovative stand is modular and highly adaptive, allowing a
                variety of configurations for different events and target groups. Grolsch
                International and several different business units use the stand all over
                Europe to meet their diverse requirements.

                L’Oréal Paris
                Challenge:
                L’Oréal Paris asked kubik to design a new booth for their annual exhibition
                program that would serve as a mobile salon, provide a great participant
                and spectator experience – and function as a true retail environment.
                Sustainability and flexibility were keywords that drove the design.


                Highlights:
                Based on the long-standing theme “Because you are worth it”, the new
                booth has four different area’s that offer visitors a total beauty experience
                built around the L’Oréal brand. The showpiece is an entirely modular, fully
                mobile beauty salon. Visitors attend special interactive workshops where
                eight participants can enjoy the L’Oréal beauty experience. Spectators
                can follow the workshops via integrated flatscreens that provide a clear
                view of the action surrounding the models. Visitors can then purchase
                L’Oréal products in a very efficient, high turnover selling area. The flexible
                design allows all the booth elements to be used as individual settings to
                create Point-of-Sales or Sampling units


                Results:
                No compromises were made during the built of the booth, and all
                elements were produced with top-quality finishing and a luxurious
                appearance, in line with the L’Oréal Paris brand.

                Svelte Medical Systems
                Challenge:
                Svelte Medical Systems’ new Acrobat Direct Stent technology offers
                doctors a way to dramatically reduce the procedural steps, cost and
                patient recovery time. The Acrobat is the smallest, most nimble and
                most responsive stent on the market and Svelte wanted a new booth
                that showcased the product and allowed both virtual demonstrations
                and a hands-on opportunity to see and touch the product.


                Highlights:
                kubik designed a new exhibit inspired by the sweeping curvature of the
                product logo – in turn a reflection of how the device moved smoothly
                through the patient’s body. The key feature was a wrapped fabric
                helix that curved dynamically around the booth. Draped wire curtains
                provided a private enclosure while maintaining visibility. The shapes
                of the proprietary stent architecture were used to create a central
                chandelier and discussion table with the same pattern, all from laser-
                cut metal. Doctors were able to run interactive mock procedures and
                physically handle the stents and delivery tools in order to gauge their
                unique properties and feel.

                Results:
                The end product was a very light-weight and open exhibit that has
                already been seamlessly transported and displayed in Paris, Stockholm
                and Washington DC.

                Nike Inc. | ISPO
                Challenge:
                Nike’s 700 m2 presentation at the ISPO sports fair in Munich was key to
                introduce the new technologies Total Air, Zoom Air (air cushioned shoes)
                and Nike FIT (innovative apparel fabrics) to the professional market.


                Highlights:
                kubik created monumental displays to present performance products
                for Basketball, Running and Football. Each product was highlighted in a
                recognizable context showing the featured technologies. The absolute
                eye-catcher was presented on the Football monument: the new GEO
                ball, floating 10cm above the kick-off dot

                Results:
                In order to achieve the installation of the exhibit within allotted time
                frames, kubik developed easy interlocking components. The structure
                had to disassemble into a compact mass for shipping yet remain
                structurally sound and withstand the high volume of traffic of several
                installations.

                Nike Parks
                Challenge:
                Sometimes, Nike wants to “just do it” – this time they wanted to do it
                raw, rough and edgy. That was kubik’s brief from Nike Design for creating
                a series of street-savvy, multi-media, high energy sporting events.
                Targeted at soccer-loving kids all over the world, 20 events had to be
                timed to complement an on-going worldwide advertising campaign.


                Highlights:
                kubik staged events in some pretty raw places: An abandoned
                slaughterhouse, an old tanker ship, an unfinished subway station, to
                name just a few, using chain link, oil drums, rusted metal walls and
                super-graphics of the world’s best soccer players.


                Results:
                kubik worked on five continents in 10 different languages to provide a
                total Nike branded environment, and played host to thousands of young
                soccer fans. Nike met their goal of bringing a great advertising campaign
                into the street and reinforcing the connections between their brand,
                their market, and soccer: The sport they both support.

                slaughterhouse, an old tanker ship, an unfinished subway station, to

                chain link, oil drums, rusted metal walls and super-graphics of the world’s
                best soccer players. Visuals, lighting and live DJ sound made the events

                ABN AMRO | Volvo Ocean Race
                Challenge:
                When the event is an around-the-world sailing race, your exhibit should
                be very portable. And that’s exactly what we produced for ABN AMRO,
                one of the largest banks in the world and sponsor of two boats in the
                Volvo Ocean Race 2005-2006.

                program, and a turnkey hospitality pavilion that we will produce
                and install at seven major race stopovers. kubik also provided a
                communications theme and 3D style guide that was the starting point
                for the design of all event materials. As preferred supplier for Team ABN
                AMRO, we are involved in the production and execution of all worldwide
                activities organized by ABN AMRO so that they receive the greatest value

                Red Bull Air Race | Fleet Week
                Challenge:
                Red Bull was about to get wings as a sponsor of the heavily attended
                ‘Fleet Week’ Air Race at Municipal Pier in San Francisco, and came to
                kubik to create an interactive consumer experience that would highlight
                the Red Bull brand.


                Highlights:
                Our concept mirrored on land what everyone could see on the water - six
                huge pylons that formed the course. Inside the Red Bull pylons visitors
                were treated to flight simulators, interactive games and a dynamic video
                of the race itself. kubik managed the design, construction and logistics of
                the pylons, and also provided the graphic elements and all of the audio-
                visual equipment, including 16 interactive kiosks.

                Results:
                More than 100,000 people attended the various events at Fleet Week,
                giving Red Bull fantastic exposure over three days.

                Coca Cola | D.O.C. Mission Olympic
                Challenge:
                Our assignment from Coca Cola was to create an event that would
                introduce thousands of 12 to 19 year olds to different kinds of sports -
                and tastefully emphasize the partnership between the Dutch Olympic
                Committee and Coke.


                Highlights:
                kubik designed an interactive, mobile sport city - a traveling sports park
                that was easy to install in city spaces and offered kids the opportunity
                to play six different types of sports, including soccer, volleyball and
                basketball. DJ’s, street dance and skate performances were fully
                integrated with the sports program and the design, language and
                special presentations all fit perfectly with the experience world of the
                target group – and were completely in line with Coca Cola’s corporate
                identity.


                Results:
                More than 100,000 students took part in the annual 10 city Netherlands
                tour. At the School Finals hosted in the Amsterdam Olympic Stadium, over
                5,000 students from 120 high schools in The Netherlands participated!

                Bombardier | Paris Air Show Chalet
                Challenge:
                With exhibitors from 48 countries, and covering over 32 acres, the Paris
                Air Show is one of the biggest air shows in the world, attracting nearly
                400,000 air enthusiasts and professionals. Bombardier asked kubik
                to design a show-stopper for the Paris event - an executive sales and
                hospitality suite that was modern, functional and spectacular.


                Highlights:
                kubik created a strikingly modern new environment for Bombardier,
                reflecting their commitment to engineering excellence and fine design.
                The fully modular, environmentally-sustainable booth took advantage
                of new technology from another Canadian firm. The 10,000 sq. ft. exhibit
                is a complete traveling business office and hospitality chalet. The kubik
                crew can quickly break down the whole works into 8 shipping containers
                for easy and safe transport anywhere Bombardier needs to go.

                Results:
                At the Paris Air Show, kubik’s design helped Bombardier stand out
                among 2,000 exhibitors and more than 360 entertainment chalets. The
                exhibit will be shipped for use in Dubai, Singapore and Farnborough,
                before returning to Paris.

                Cole Haan | North American Fashion Show
                Challenge:
                For a private preview of Cole Haan’s fall 2006 collection by North
                American retail buyers, kubik was challenged to transform a ballroom at
                the Four Seasons Hotel in Las Vegas into a retail atmosphere complete
                with all fixtures, displays graphic images.


                Highlights:
                In a late-inning decision and only two weeks away from the WSA show,
                Cole Haan management decided to include an exclusive live preview
                of their Fall Collection for their largest retail client. The kubik team
                responded by designing, building and installing a high-style fashion
                runway, complete with lighting sound and graphics, in record time.


                Results:
                kubik’s vision, design implementation and production management
                delivered a resounding success. This unique previewing experience
                has become incorporated into Cole Haan’s sales meetings and private
                functions, thus delivering value well beyond the original intent of the
                project.

                ING Bank | The Amsterdam Marathon

                Challenge:
                How do you connect a major sporting event with ING Bank, a business that
                isn’t exactly sporty? kubik’s answer: Make the company’s headquarters
                look like a giant running shoe, of course.


                Highlights:
                ING’s corporate headquarters became the talk of Amsterdam when
                added laces and all to transform the building with a state-of-the-art
                wrap that showed off ING’s corporate color. Known locally as “the shoe,” it
                soon became one of the most talked-about installations in our company
                history, and photos of it made the covers of hundreds of newspapers
                throughout Europe.

                Results:
                The re-styled building put ING’s indelible stamp on the city’s annual
                marathon, and the sheer scale of this project put our work on the radar
                screen for thousands of people every day.

                Philips | Global Product Launch
                Challenge:
                Philips was about to launch a new global brand positioning, and came to
                kubik for a launch event that was true to their latest advertising message:
                “Technology should be as simple as the box it comes in.”


                Highlights:
                We designed and executed a multi-faceted campaign that was all about
                the box. We custom-built a Mystery Box as a teaser and set it afloat in the
                canals of Amsterdam. The project also included a giant version of this
                white box that was used to unveil the new brand promise. To reinforce
                the message at the launch press conference, we designed and produced
                the White Room and organized a blowout wrap party for media and
                guests.


                Results:
                The unique and entertaining launch generated media attention all
                around the world – and earned a tremendous amount of free publicity
                as a bonus.

                Royal Dutch Air Force
                Mission Decision Campaign

                Challenge:
                Teens can be a hard bunch to reach. So how do you clue them in to the
                fact that if they want a cool career – like flying a jet fighter – they need to
                study the right courses now?


                Highlights:
                Working with the youth outreach arm of the Royal Dutch Air Force, we
                designed, developed and executed Mission Decision, a three-pronged
                campaign designed to generate interest in a military career. To kick
                off the program, mock fighter pilots visited schools with a life-sized
                inflatable F-16, while a custom website simplified registration for the
                main Mission Decision event. An interactive Base Camp featured pilot
                demos around an Apache helicopter and an F-16.


                Results:
                We helped the Royal Dutch Air Force meet its objectives thanks to an
                unprecedented amount of free publicity. What’s more, the campaign
                produced 2,130 new youth memberships.

                Camper | Volvo Ocean Race
                Challenge:
                CAMPER, one of the world’s leading companies in the footwear design
                industry, is collaborating with Emirates Team New Zealand to manage
                their first Volvo Ocean Race (VOR) campaign. In-line with the design
                philosophy of Camper, a unique pavilion is erected in the race village to
                support their participation at several stop-overs during the race.


                Highlights:
                The Camper pavilion is designed by Shigeru Ban and is mainly made out
                of paper tubes, the trademark material of the famous Japanese architect.
                The round pavilion, with a diameter of 20 meters, was engineered to
                install and dismantle in a short time frames and to withstand possible
                severe weather conditions at the stop-over harbors such as Sanya in
                China, Miami in the USA or Lorient in France.


                Results:
                The CAMPER pavilion is a great example of Camper’s daring design
                approach, recognizing the value of natural materials and craftsmanship.
                The pavilion is prominently placed at the entrance of the Race Village of
                Alicante (Spain), the starting harbor of the VOR.

                Puma | Volvo Ocean Race
                Challenge:
                As the official clothing supplier for the Volvo Ocean Race, PUMA wanted
                a retail presence to match the spectacular impact of its hospitality
                pavilion. The challenge for kubik was to develop a concept that could
                help the client sell a wide range of product, and survive the rigors of
                round-the-world travel in any weather.


                Highlights:
                kubik created a mobile merchandising store based on the spectacular
                container concept of PUMA City. Four 40 foot sea containers held
                everything needed during transport, and when connected together
                on site, were transformed into a modern, dynamic retail environment.
                Bright red paint and huge PUMA graphics left no doubt who was behind
                it all. kubik delivered the fully operational stores within three days, with
                all required technical facilities – including complete water-proofing!

                from coast to coast. kubik is proud to invest in a project that brought
                Canadians together, just as the Grey Cup itself has done for more than a
                century.

                Joe Fresh Mobile Marketing Tour
                Challenge:
                Loblaw’s new “Joe Fresh” brand was developed to give their customers
                new quality clothing choices, so kubik’s challenge was to create a
                national promotional concept that would be mobile, memorable and
                above all, fresh.


                Highlights:
                kubik’s idea was to introduce Joe Fresh by getting it out of the store and
                into the minds of the audience. We designed a traveling salesroom that
                would take the line to the customer, rather than wait for them to discover
                it in-store. Our mobile store was completely self contained and could be
                transformed from road-worthy to open-for-business in less than 1 hour.
                No outside help was needed except to staff and restock merchandise
                that was sold on a daily basis.


                Results:
                The campaign goal of meeting customers “beyond the store” was
                achieved and customers across the country were able to see, try and buy
                – and then decide to come to Loblaw’s stores for more.

                Olympic Torch Tour | RBC
                Challenge:
                RBC is a major sponsor of 2010 Olympic Torch Relay that crossed Canada
                in the lead-up to the Winter Games in Vancouver. GMR Marketing,
                an industry leader in mobile marketing, selected kubik to execute
                the centerpiece of RBC’s travelling event, the “Eco Home”, in a truly
                sustainable way.


                Highlights:
                The Tour gave RBC the opportunity to share its belief that building a
                sustainable future can start at home. kubik executed the challenging
                design centered on a unique trailer concept that incorporates both
                wind and solar power to energize the vehicles during events across
                the country. Inside, kubik constructed an environment with interactive
                displays that use real products, lighting, sound, and a new software
                program called “Augmented Reality” to show how various practices
                can dramatically reduce our energy usage. The interactive elements
                themselves were created using recycled materials, LED lighting and FSC
                approved wood products.


                Results:
                Bringing sustainability to a travelling interactive experience, the “Eco
                Home” is an innovation in mobile marketing and an excellent addition
                to the Olympic Torch Tour.

                KLM Hospitality Truck
                Challenge:
                For their 90th anniversary celebration, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines launched
                a marketing campaign called ‘Journeys of inspiration’. The campaign
                included a pan-European promotional tour featuring a unique custom
                Hospitality truck with a specially fitted interior. Naturally, KLM turned to
                kubik for design and execution.


                Highlights:
                The design for the truck is based on two themes: a ‘Tour of Inspiration’
                showcasing new KLM products and services, and a ‘Tour in Time’
                celebrating 90 years of company history. kubik delivered the interior
                design for the truck and produced the interior elements. The design
                makes use of every available surface in the truck, plus central displays
                to relate the history and the future of KLM. It should be noted that KLM
                calculated the Tour’s total expected CO2 emissions in advance which
                was compensated for through its CO@ZERO program.


                Results:
                The Hospitality Truck traveled to 30 cities and 16 countries, delivering
                KLM’s message of inspiration and celebration to thousands of people
                across Europe. Special events were arranged at every stop that enabled
                KLM to present its complete range of products and services to their most
                important markets.

                Diana: A Celebration
                Challenge:
                The traveling exhibit Diana: A Celebration was designed to showcase
                memorabilia, personal possessions, letters and film footage related to
                Princess Diana’s childhood and public life. Our assignment from Toronto’s
                Design Exchange was to project manage key elements of artifact
                handling, mount making, showcase detail development, fabrication and
                the logistical coordination of the installation in Toronto.


                Highlights:
                kubik’s expertise in handling fragile cultural materials and valuable
                artifacts was called to play in building protected environments for the
                priceless collection. More than 200 items, including Diana’s wedding
                gown, 28 other dresses, priceless jewelry, books and childhood toys
                were housed in custom showcases and linked to elaborate audio visual
                presentations.


                Results:
                Diana: A Celebration was attended by more than 300,000 people in
                Toronto. Fashion writers and critics who visited the exhibition were
                impressed by the stylish artifacts and described it as a “fantastic tribute”.

                Nike Inc. | Nike Town
                Challenge:
                If you’re setting up shop in the heart of some of the world’s most
                competitive retail environments – like New York, Boston, London and
                Berlin  – you need to make a splash. That’s what Nike asked us to help
                them do with their Niketown stores.


                Highlights:
                Part museum, part theme park, the Niketown stores are a powerfully
                persuasive retail environment. But more than that, the Niketowns have
                become tourist destinations that showcase innovative Nike products. For
                the New York store alone, we collaborated on 20 different display areas
                – many of which were complex interactive installations. While Nike’s in-
                house design team set the tone, we were instrumental in developing
                the Niketown concept designs at each locale. We engineered each
                installation while meeting strict, pre-established budgets. Of course,
                packing, shipping, and installation were executed flawlessly to very tight
                deadlines.

                Results:
                We helped Nike create a shopping experience like no other.

                fabricated in multi colored urethane layers & 12 vacuum formed resin
                lamps with LED lighting. The Montreal store was completed with a red
                epoxy floor with a “story” hand painted on. Edmonton took on a more
                natural approach.


                Results:

                Nokia | Flagship Retail Campaign
                Challenge:
                Nokia, the world leader in mobile communication technology, wanted
                to promote their new luxurious phone, the Luna 8600, in their flagship
                stores in an inspiring and innovative way. It was up to kubik to achieve
                high quality design, production and installation under great time
                pressure.


                Highlights:
                An environment was created that brought the Nokia Luna 8600
                technology to consumers in an interactive and innovative way. kubik
                designers broke the rules and adapted technology to incorporate LED
                screens within the retail store displays, and the effect was exactly what
                we were looking for. The environment lightened up the customer’s faces
                and gave a sense of illumination throughout the store.

                Results:
                The innovative displays were implemented at Nokia’s flagship stores in
                Hong Kong, Moscow, New York and Chicago. In Hong Kong the sales of

                Heineken International Headquarters
                Challenge:
                Heineken had just gone through a daunting company reorganization,
                and decided that its new international headquarters should reflect its
                new transparent attitude.


                Highlights:
                We were commissioned to engineer and implement multiple interior
                environments within the new headquarters. The ground floor area was
                dedicated to “The World of Heineken.” At its center was an iconic in-house
                bar that dis­ layed Heineken beers from around the world, flat-screen
                             p
                TVs and LED lighting. The rest of the four-storey office space featured
                themed environments, such as the Lounge, the Garden, the Beach, Back
                to Africa, the International Bar and the Travel Room. And we strategically
                built and engineered all of them.


                Results:
                We created an architectural statement echoing Heineken’s new corporate
                values, using new materials and engineering solutions. We completed
                the project in co-operation with Heineken’s “On the Move“ team, along
                with architects and designers, including representation from the design
                agency.

                Bentley Motors Dealership Program
                Challenge:
                In 2004, Bentley Motors set itself up as a solo brand, not tied in with
                the Rolls Royce brand. The challenge we had to meet was to create
                a dealership environment that maintained brand awareness while
                showcasing the Bentley standards for luxury and understated elegance.


                Highlights:
                We developed, engineered, manufactured and installed the complete
                dealership program as designed in conjunction with their brand
                execution group, Executive Visions. All the showroom fixtures were
                designed and fabricated to be true to the Bentley brand and meet the
                automaker’s exacting quality standards. Even the paint finishes were
                unique – they were 100% dust-free and made up of 13 coats, a mandatory
                to get the kind of final look Bentley demanded.

                Results:
                The dealership re-branding program was executed seamlessly and
                helped build new-customer awareness while retaining existing buyers.

                Challenge:
                PinkRoccade is one of Europe’s largest ICT groups and a global IT services
                company with operations in The Netherlands, United Kingdom, Belgium
                and Canada. kubik was approached to translate their new corporate
                identity into 3D design solutions for office interiors, trade show
                presentations and event programs.


                Highlights:
                kubik designed a completely new Techno-Plaza — a central presentation
                area in PinkRoccade’s corporate offices that the company uses to
                demonstrate all of its latest IT services. Based on the guidelines of the
                corporate identity, we designed and produced office entrance areas,
                meeting rooms, exhibition booths and presentation units, branded with
                the consistent corporate look and feel of PinkRoccade.

                Results:
                The impact and success of Techno-Plaze led PinkRoccade to ask kubik to
                develop our initial ideas into a full-scale communications campaign. We
                designed and executed trade show booths and other events, flawlessly
                carrying the initial concept through several communication media.

                LG | Experiential Zone
                Challenge:
                We often face the challenge of making the most of small and sometimes
                unusual spaces. For the exciting new LG Experiential Zone, the space was
                small – and spread out over three levels of the Air Canada Centre (ACC)
                in Toronto.


                Highlights:
                The LG Experiential Zone is a multimedia retail showcase of the
                company’s technology. Designed, built and installed by kubik, the LG
                Zone occupies a 20 sq. ft. x 30 sq. ft. space in the ACC Galleria, plus 2
                additional showcases on other levels. The Zone is located in a huge traffic
                flow area, and the ACC generously allowed us to expand our presence
                by encroaching onto their space in a major walkway with branded pillar
                wraps.

                Results:
                The unique space, with life size graphics and an amazing monitor collage
                wall, make the LG Zone an ideal place to experience LG’s latest and
                greatest products.

                Schneider Electric Eco Lounge
                Challenge:
                After merging several facilities into one head office, Schneider Electric
                decided it was time to create a means to tell its story to visitors. The
                solution took the form of a three-space experience: a showroom,
                executive boardroom and enlivened reception area.


                Highlights:
                kubik branded the space with liberal use of Schneider Electric green
                accents. White walls and bright light minimized the gray, industrial look
                of the equipment while raised white-on-white icons added texture to the
                walls. Execution required careful adherence to fire codes and integration
                of ventilation for equipment. Shadow-box framing and a removable grill
                at the rear of the equipment facilitated mounting without having to drill
                through the wall panels.

                Results:
                Schneider Electric is thrilled with its new visitor meeting facilities.

                Thomson Galleries, Art Gallery of Ontario
                Challenge:
                Frank Gehry’s redesigned interiors and exteriors for the Art Gallery of
                Ontario (AGO) provided spectacular settings for two new attractions:
                the Thomson Collections of Ship Models and European Art. The design
                presented display and casework challenges that many thought could
                not be met – until they saw the work of the international partnership of
                kubik Maltbie and Click Netherfield.


                Highlights:
                The European Art Collection, which features over 900 medieval,
                Renaissance and Baroque sacred and secular works of art, is presented in
                2 unique spaces that set new standards for galleries and museums. The
                Ship Models Collection, which features one of the largest collection of
                ship models ever assembled, required the creation of six stunning stand-
                alone curved glass showcases that pushed the limits of what is possible
                in a museum environment.


                Results:
                The Thomson collections are housed in exhibits that allow perfect
                display, perfect protection, and a spectacular visitor experience.

                international news artifacts and is one of the most talked about museums
                in Washington D.C. kubik was responsible for housing the museum’s
                huge collection – over 81,000 pounds of priceless materials – and for
                developing exciting new approaches to installation and usage.


                Highlights:
                The Newseum has over 250,000 square feet of space and contain
                thousands of artifacts of great historical and social importance, including
                a shrapnel-riddled news truck, an original Berlin Wall guard tower, and
                a gallery featuring every Pulitzer Prize winning photograph taken since
                1942. Innovative and interactive multimedia centres, designed by kubik,
                broadcast major news items from the past fifty years and show video
                interviews with nearly 70 Pulitzer Prize winning photographers. In all,
                kubik shipped over 100 tractor trailers of materials to be used throughout
                the Newseum’s 15 theaters, 14 major galleries, 130 interactive stations
                and two cutting-edge broadcast studios.


                Results:
                The 3-year Newseum project required us to develop new approaches
                to installation and innovative new ways to utilize materials. The unique
                content and exciting installation have made The Newseum one of
                Washington’s premier cultural destinations, and critics agree that it
                represents the future in terms of design and construction of museum
                galleries.

  • 9. thinkubik.com Tradeshow Exhibits DSM | FIE show, Paris Challenge: kubik recently completed a new exhibit environment for multi-national health, nutrition and materials company, DSM. The 250 m2 square meter stand, which debuted at Food Ingredients Europe (FIE) in Paris, translates DSM’s new corporate identity guidelines into a clean, white “Supermarket of the Future.” Highlights: A key feature is the clutter-free digital depiction of products and shelves displayed on 55” LCD touch monitors. Touching individual products brings up additional information including a list of DSM ingredients included in each product. Interactions with customers, data collection, and fulfillment are all conducted electronically via tablet device enabling a clutter and paper-free exhibit. “Technology will drive the exhibits of the future, from lead generation to content delivery to measurement,” says Hajo Reinders, Managing Director of the European office from kubik in Amsterdam. Results: Due to the very successful format of the exhibit, the interactive concept will be used at upcoming shows of DSM Nutritional Products and DSM Food Specialties. The environmental setting, that kubik has also created for other divisions within the DSM corporation, will be the starting-point for upcoming exhibits for DSM around the world. © 2012 kubik inc.

  • 10. thinkubik.com Tradeshow Exhibits Brookfield Challenge: Brookfield Asset Management is a global asset manager focused on property, renewable power and infrastructure assets. They rank among the world’s leaders with approximately $150 billion of assets under management, including extensive retail shopping centre properties. With that in mind, their new booth for the ICSC show was intended to be contemporary and stylish on one hand, and a showcase for sustainable, efficient management on the other. Highlights: kubik worked with detailed designs from Lorenc+Yoo to create a shining example of what can be achieved using the simplest of materials such as acrylic panels, painted laminates, naugahyde, and a touch of carrara marble. Two features stood out above all: One was the huge 16 ft x 12 ft seamless video wall with upholstered seating in the viewing area. The other was the surprisingly generous set of private meeting rooms, each with comfortable furniture, ideal lighting and full audio/video equipment. Results: The new Brookfield booth provided an ideal venue for serious business discussion, in an environment that reflected the best qualities of the assets the company has under management. The strong yet understated statement was a perfect reflection of the Brookfield brand. © 2012 kubik inc.

  • 11. thinkubik.com Tradeshow Exhibits Trojan Technologies Challenge: Trojan Technologies is the market leader in UV water treatment technology, respected for producing Ultraviolet technologies that are cleaner, greener and more efficient than chlorine based systems. Their mission is expressed in the phrase “Water Confidence” - the peace of mind that comes from knowing your water is truly clean. Trojan recently challenged kubik to find a tradeshow interpretation of “Water Confidence” that would reinforce their brand strength and have a big impact on visitors. Highlights: With the tranquility of a Zen garden as inspiration, the kubik team created the Trojan “Peace of Mind” campaign. The exhibit space was defined by surrounding walls of upright acrylic tubes that mimicked bamboo, with many of them internally lit to suggest Trojan’s UV lamp technology. Inside the booth, we created a modern Japanese rock garden with Trojan’s unique UV lamps and purification equipment serving as the stones and the traffic flow moving around them as the sand. Featured throughout were graphics of people meditating near pools of water and bamboo fountains. Results: When combined with a kubik designed program of interactive activities before and during the show, was everything Trojan expected it to be. © 2012 kubik inc.

  • 12. thinkubik.com Tradeshow Exhibits Bayer Challenge: Brand image and flexibility were MaClaren Momentum’s chief directives when it reached out to kubik to create an in-line exhibit for Bayer CropScience. Bayer required a sleek and contemporary exhibit—with modular construction to accommodate a variety of ceiling heights and space configurations ranging from 10’ x 10’ to 20’ x 20’. Highlights: A unique sheen was created by finishing custom millwork with pearlescent automotive paint. Bayer’s green and blue logo glowed against white towers located at either side of the exhibit, an effect created by rear-lighting 3D plexi letters. Rear-lit fabric graphics gave the exhibit additional pop. Meanwhile, modular components accommodated inline floor plan options up to 10’ x 40’ and a finished backside ensured that the exhibit could also be used in island configurations. Results: Both Bayer CropScience and Maclaren Momentum delivered rave reviews, saying the finished exhibit is as beautiful as it is versatile. © 2012 kubik inc. All rights reserved.® ‘kubik’, ‘think kubik’ and ‘beyond imagination’ are registered trademarks of kubik Inc.
  • 13. thinkubik.com Tradeshow Exhibits SPX Power Energy Challenge: SPX’s objective was to make itself known as the parent company behind a dozen well known, industry-specific manufacturing brands. The challenge was to design a clean and visually consistent exhibit that would communicate this positioning while showcasing SPX’s wide range of brands and products. Highlights: kubik found inspiration in the green “X” in the SPX logo—actually two green chevrons meeting—and in the company’s tagline, “Where ideas meet industry.” Converging angles throughout the exhibit reiterated this messaging while fields of green visually linked exhibit components to the logo. Clean and open, the environment exuded an ambiance of professionalism and organization—despite the presence of large industrial products and components. Use of printed fabric panels minimized costs. Results: SPX communicated its parent company status with style and elegance. © 2012 kubik inc.

  • 14. thinkubik.com Tradeshow Exhibits One Lambda Challenge: One lambda wanted a dramatic and engaging new exhibit that reflected their leadership in the medical resource industry. They asked kubik to provide a new custom rental booth, and meet a specific installation challenge: a hotel ballroom setting with an 10 foot height limit. Highlights: kubik designed a solution that fit all of the criteria and more. The highlight of the booth was the plasma wall playing a highly detailed and engaging video that introduced the company and its offerings. Bold colors complemented the floor-to-ceiling light boxes and demo kiosks, and a large work surface gave space for real time demonstrations. Results: The booth had an open feel, with room for undisturbed and intimate conversation. The effect was a striking and memorable statement from an industry leader. © 2012 kubik inc. All rights reserved.® ‘kubik’, ‘think kubik’ and ‘beyond imagination’ are registered trademarks of kubik Inc.
  • 15. thinkubik.com Tradeshow Exhibits Daimler Alliance Challenge: For the Alliance Parts exhibit kubik created a space with a distinct NASCAR theme incorporating the new Alliance brand look. Highlights: Replica concrete and chain-link barriers create a racetrack perimeter and form the edges of the booth, while also providing space for graphics and display areas. A terraced “grand stand” provides a 30’ long product display while counters made from mechanic’s toolboxes offer a space for computer workstations to navigate product catalogues, build your own bumper or to enter the Alliance NASCAR sweepstakes. A finish line floor treatment and a printed fan backdrop complete the experience. Results: As an overarching theme, this statement collectively connects the Alliance brand to racing and its NASCAR sponsorship, while also communicating that Alliance has the ability to get you where you’re going; fast!. © 2012 kubik inc. All rights reserved.® ‘kubik’, ‘think kubik’ and ‘beyond imagination’ are registered trademarks of kubik Inc.
  • 16. thinkubik.com Tradeshow Exhibits Cadillac | General Motors Challenge: Cadillac required an exhibit that merged its design vision with the functionality required on the auto show circuit. kubik’s expert engineering and fabrication delivered. The resulting environment remained true to the design by Maclaren Momentum—yet was easy to assemble and transport. Highlights: The design integrated a pair of 40’ long by 20’ high structures comprised of angled panels that resembled the cut facets of a gemstone. Elegant finish materials included glass, mesh, fabric, tile, leather, steel and mirror. Structural components within the structure were both sturdy and lightweight. Two “kits” of properties were fabricated to accommodate a rigorous show schedule. Results: The exhibit brought the client’s vision to life while fulfilling all logistical and functional criteria. © 2012 kubik inc. All rights reserved.® ‘kubik’, ‘think kubik’ and ‘beyond imagination’ are registered trademarks of kubik Inc.
  • 17. thinkubik.com Tradeshow Exhibits Hyundai Challenge: Hyundai’s theme, “well engineered” embodied the challenge to adapt its global design standard to meet the needs and challenges of the North American market. This included elevating the brand experience to reflect the quality of Hyundai’s well-engineered, increasingly more upscale line. Highlights: Every aspect of the exhibit was purposefully selected to convey commitment to quality and innovation. kubik upped the ante with the addition of a full raised floor inlaid with black, blue and gloss-white surfaces. Walls and identity structure were built from tension fabric applied over cost-saving, lightweight metal frames. Infusion of Hyundai blue LED lighting throughout the space symbolized continuity of engineering. The visitor experience included displays that communicated technology stories—and a gallery of Hyundai achievements. Results: The well engineered and detailed exhibit reflected Hyundai’s standard of quality. © 2012 kubik inc. All rights reserved.® ‘kubik’, ‘think kubik’ and ‘beyond imagination’ are registered trademarks of kubik Inc.
  • 18. thinkubik.com Tradeshow Exhibits Nissan Challenge: Nissan’s direction was clear: translate its Innovation for All corporate campaign into its exhibit program. To succeed, this exhibit had to embody Nissan’s commitment to industry-leading innovation, both in its flagship models and its vehicle lineup. Highlights: kubik translated this directive into a single line, a rectilinear ribbon of sorts, which represented the idea of innovation. Sometimes horizontal, sometimes vertical, the ribbon ran through the entire exhibit—signifying the innovation that runs through every Nissan product. Visitors journeying along the ribbon experienced feature vehicles, technology stories and interactive displays. Results: By utilizing fabric fabrication for a portion of the structure, kubik reduced the weight and shipping bulk of the exhibit—which translated into multiple cost efficiencies. The exhibit will travel across the Canadian Auto Show Circuit throughout 2012. © 2012 kubik inc.

  • 19. thinkubik.com Tradeshow Exhibits AUTO RAI | Amsterdam Motor Show Challenge: The organizers of the Amsterdam Motor Show had a tough 3-part challenge for kubik: develop a totally new concept for this automotive exhibition, reduce the cost of participation by 80%, and at the same time make sure every visitor enjoyed a total overview of all available car brands and models. Highlights: kubik proposed a radical idea: we would group the vehicles not by manufacturer, but by how they are used! Vehicles were placed in thematic environments that grouped the cars and light trucks into six specific “worlds”: Family & Travel; Cabrio; Luxury & Sport; Adventure; City & Compact; and Green Innovations. A unique graphic language was developed for each world, featuring spectacular images of the participating car brands. Individual brand lounges were erected in a dedicated exhibition hall as reception areas for car manufactures and dealers. Results: kubik’s concept helped the Amsterdam Motor Show prosper despite difficult economic conditions. The new concept was a cost-efficient solution for participating car brands and more than 220,000 visitors saw the latest car models in an entirely new way. © 2012 kubik inc.

  • 20. thinkubik.com Tradeshow Exhibits Michelin Challenge: For their new booth at CONEXPO – CON/AGG and MINE Expo in Las Vegas, Michelin had three directives for kubik: make it new, fresh and spectacular; make it modular and transportable; and make it to follow Michelin’s corporate visual guidelines. Just the sort of challenge we enjoy! Highlights: kubik’s idea for Michelin was to use all of the space we had – both horizontal and vertical. The main level was for product display and was dressed with large images of product at work around the world. Above that was an 800 sq.ft. upper deck that was used as a meeting space with a large office, closed door internet lounge, and social area with a serving bar and lots of soft seating. Above that was an 18’ diameter ring with 3 large logos. Components featured boldly curved surfaces and blue glowing walls, all strategically lit to draw attention to Michelin products on display throughout. Results: CONEXPO - CON/AGG and MINE Expo are the biggest Construction/ Aggregate and Mining shows in North America, and the new Michelin booth stood out and made a spectacular visual impact – and was a true reflection of Michelin brand quality. © 2012 kubik inc.

  • 21. thinkubik.com Tradeshow Exhibits Visual Sonics Challenge: As a world leader in high-resolution micro imaging systems, Visual Sonics sees its tradeshow program as a way to connect professionals in new ways. Their new kubik-designed booth had to serve as a live demonstration environment that could highlight and promote Visual Sonics products on the show floor – even in a limited space. Highlights: The “organic” geometry of the Visual Sonics logo depicts the “focusing on cell division” which is the core of the company’s mission. The kubik team captured that idea in a 3-dimensional form by creating a flowing, energetic form that rose above the booth and made a strong visual impact. A reception desk presides over the space in an open corner, and 3 double-sided work-stations, each with graphics suitable for a specific demonstration, help draw visitors into the stand from all sides. Results: The new booth creates maximum impact in minimum space, and the unified shapes, colors and graphic treatment fortify the brand impression. © 2012 kubik inc.

  • 22. thinkubik.com Tradeshow Exhibits Caterpillar Challenge: Think of a forklift, and you’ll likely think about strength and power. So it’s no surprise that exhibits for forklift manufacturers tend to look the same. Caterpillar, wanting to take a different tack during a major show in Utrecht, Holland, asked kubik to help. Highlights: “Lift your mind” was our creative concept for an eye-catching, all new show stand. Caterpillar’s machinery occupied centre stage, but behind it stood a lounge-café that provided a refuge of peace and relaxation for weary show-goers – an environment that dovetailed perfectly with a key client message: Caterpillar solutions help users work in a relaxed way. Results: kubik helped set Caterpillar apart from its competitors by steering away from the expected. What’s more, in a sea of predictable presentations, Caterpillar was lifted above the pack with a solidly branded message. © 2012 kubik inc.

  • 25. thinkubik.com Tradeshow Exhibits Svelte Medical Systems Challenge: Svelte Medical Systems’ new Acrobat Direct Stent technology offers doctors a way to dramatically reduce the procedural steps, cost and patient recovery time. The Acrobat is the smallest, most nimble and most responsive stent on the market and Svelte wanted a new booth that showcased the product and allowed both virtual demonstrations and a hands-on opportunity to see and touch the product. Highlights: kubik designed a new exhibit inspired by the sweeping curvature of the product logo – in turn a reflection of how the device moved smoothly through the patient’s body. The key feature was a wrapped fabric helix that curved dynamically around the booth. Draped wire curtains provided a private enclosure while maintaining visibility. The shapes of the proprietary stent architecture were used to create a central chandelier and discussion table with the same pattern, all from laser- cut metal. Doctors were able to run interactive mock procedures and physically handle the stents and delivery tools in order to gauge their unique properties and feel. Results: The end product was a very light-weight and open exhibit that has already been seamlessly transported and displayed in Paris, Stockholm and Washington DC. © 2012 kubik inc.

All the showroom fixtures were designed and fabricated to be true to the Bentley brand and meet the automaker’s exacting quality standards. Even the paint finishes were unique – they were 100% dust-free and made up of 13 coats, a mandatory to get the kind of final look Bentley demanded. Results: The dealership re-branding program was executed seamlessly and helped build new-customer awareness while retaining existing buyers. © 2012 kubik inc.

  • 56. thinkubik.com Retail and Interior Environments Schneider Electric Eco Lounge Challenge: After merging several facilities into one head office, Schneider Electric decided it was time to create a means to tell its story to visitors. The solution took the form of a three-space experience: a showroom, executive boardroom and enlivened reception area. Highlights: kubik branded the space with liberal use of Schneider Electric green accents. White walls and bright light minimized the gray, industrial look of the equipment while raised white-on-white icons added texture to the walls. Execution required careful adherence to fire codes and integration of ventilation for equipment. Shadow-box framing and a removable grill at the rear of the equipment facilitated mounting without having to drill through the wall panels. Results: Schneider Electric is thrilled with its new visitor meeting facilities. © 2012 kubik inc.
