Geometric patterns used in the last scene of the film were projected onto the space. Small touches like playing cards on the tables and vignettes from graffiti collective 5Pointz on the walls gave the warehouse a gritty, underground vibe.

Drawing on another scene in the film, which features a merry-go-round, carrousel horses were arranged as a photo op for guests. Other entertainment included card games and a set from DJ Vikas.
