Innovative exhibition at the Next Nature Museum

Project description

What if an elevator doesn’t just take you up or down, but takes you on a journey through the Earth?

For the exhibition “Once Upon a Time… the Earth” at the Next Nature Museum, we created, in collaboration with Q-Lite, an audiovisual experience that goes beyond technology alone.

As soon as the elevator doors close, the adventure begins. Five impressive 85” portrait Sony displays visually take visitors deep underground. Perfectly synchronized by BrightSign media players, they create a single seamless experience, as if the walls themselves come to life.

But it doesn’t stop at visuals. A stage shaker system beneath the floor simulates subtle vibrations, while sound and scent bring the different geological layers to life. Scent machines release specific aromas per phase, creating a layered multisensory experience. The elevator is fully bilingual, available in both Dutch and English.

The immersive experience continues throughout the surrounding space. Eight architectural columns are fitted with LED banners featuring 90-degree corners and a pixel pitch of 1.8 mm, ensuring content is visible from every angle. In addition, an indoor LED wall measuring 480 x 202.5 cm has been installed, with a fine pixel pitch of 1.5 mm.
