Project Summary
Durable Acrovyn by Design was installed on the corridor walls and lobby doors of the IMAX Experience at the Kennedy Space Center, showcasing floor-to-ceiling photographs of astronauts floating through the International Space Station.
Full Case Study
O Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex é um museu repleto de diversão com mais do que 23 atrações, que permite mais 1. 5 milhões de visitantes por ano para explorar o espaço. Entre suas muitas atrações está um cinema 3D IMAX, apresentando documentários sobre exploração espacial e as descobertas que a NASA fez desde a sua fundação em 1959.
Design Goals
Kennedy Space Center chose DesignShop, a leading exhibit designer, to design and create a new experience within their IMAX complex, in addition to updating and stylising the lobby & concession area.
As the IMAX Experience is one of the most popular attractions at the Kennedy Space Center, wall and graphics damage – and its associated repair costs – were a concern for DesignShop. They needed a graphic solution that could withstand the daily wear and tear of such a popular facility. Therefore, DesignShop chose CS Acrovyn by Design.
Results
CS Acrovyn by Design combina uma impressão digital de alta resolução com um material de proteção de parede Acrovyn PVC-Free comprovado em milhares de instalações por todo o mundo.
Installed on the corridor walls and lobby doors, Acrovyn by Design showcases floor-to-ceiling photographs of NASA astronauts floating through the International Space Station, helping to protect the underlying wall and door surfaces from damage.
And because the images are encapsulated behind a clear Acrovyn protective layer, the photographs won’t be damaged by surface bumps and scratches, ensuring they will stay looking good for years to come.
Michael Rainey of DesignShop said “With Acrovyn by Design’s customisation capabilities, we were able to bring our design visions to life.”
