Dealertrack Technologies

A curved 130-foot marquee extended over more than two dozen demo stations at the Dealertrack Technologies space by MC2 at the National Automobile Dealers Association show in Orlando. The stations were uplit with blue LED strips, and blue-edge-lit partitions offered privacy by separating the stations and dampening sound.

The playful exhibit for Brooks Sports by Pinnacle Exhibits for the 2013 Outdoor Retailer Winter Market in Salt Lake City had a team of mechanized mannequins running overhead, bar stools made with mannequin runners’ legs, and monitors displaying social media posts.

Michelin
Michelin

At the North American International Auto Show in Detroit, MC2’s booth for Michelin featured two simulator floors that let visitors “Be the Tire.” When they stepped onto the floor mat and placed their hands on the dashboard, they experienced the road from a tire’s point of view—feeling vibrations from the bumps and dips of various road surfaces.

TaylorMade

A 30,000-square-foot space by Sparks for TaylorMade at the P.G.A. Merchandise Show in Orlando did double-duty, functioning as an exhibit during the day and a client appreciation party at night. Booming house music and an aerialist clad in a Swarovski-crystal-covered bodysuit pouring drinks from a 10-foot-high chandelier helped set the mood.
