 `Shadowclub` The Lovell Art Gallery

Combining `art with local music culture` served up an amazing evening at the Lovell Art Gallery in Woodstock, Cape Town.

 

Andy Parker, the `manager of the gallery`, hosted a wonderful concept presented by Arno Carstens, `fusing artwork and acoustics` to create a warm creative atmosphere.  Several well known South Africa musicians got the chance to perform, including: Jon Savage, Zolani Mahola, Valiant Swart and great new Cape Town act ShadowclubMike Rutherford of "Genesis and Mike and the Mechanics," also gave a special guest appearance alongside the Jon Savage band. 

 

The entertainment was fantastic and the `Native Digital Agency` showcased their concept of projecting visuals within `social media applications` to the tune of the music . This visualization captured the `audience's attention` as photo's of them could be seen on the screen.

Dynamic creativity and modern design incorporated an essential communication technique for advertising and interacting with clients.

Social & Industrial - Design Indabar

Design Indabar- Cape Town 2012

Social & Industrial - Design Indabar
The display area and projection surface

This winter we're celebrating Design Indaba's unique perspective for displaying and showcasing the best in creativity.

I've had a great time hanging out with the crew from DI. 
They've always taken into consideration how appealing smart design is. How once it has been developed, the uses for which it was intended are beyond beneficial.
Design Indabar, a concept presented by Grolsch, to design and create two white hydraulic-controlled containers offering the most pleasant hospitality.

Bar area and upper deck for DJ
These containers are quite special, the first, contains a very sleek bar counter with basins, shelves and point-of-sale devices. Ceiling lighting and power distribution is included for 2 large refrigerators.

 A set of stairs then lifts down and is used to walk safely up to the balcony area, which is perfect for DJs, musicians and other entertainment.

The second container is slightly different. The hydraulic technology is used to raise the side doors rather than extend and lower them.

The main sliding door is lifted to create a perfect screen for films, while the interior serves as a versatile mobile gallery.

"Designed by Fly Pitcher in collaboration with Ravi Naidoo of Design Indaba, the interior and exterior surfaces of the Design Indabar can be used to project art, film, design and the like." 

Grolsch marketing manager, Mashinka Fourie said the Design Indabar was created by the perfect synergy between Grolsch and the Design Indaba.
