A distinct dynamic is proposed, which enhances the hotel’s added value, both during work and at mealtimes. To do so, we will use an area large enough to take advantage of the mixed technological conference model with a disruptive but functional scenography, which will surprise the participants.

1. Working session area + Exhibitors

Two space concepts, for the first and second day.

For the first day, a stage format, with built-in leds screens (5mx2.5m), with more stage depth space (rectangular). In the middle of the afternoon, the wall separating the conference from the exhibitor area is removed and the space is one even deeper. The stage should thus be at one end of the large rectangle formed by the three rooms together (two for exhibition and one for conference).

For the second day, and since the presentations are shorter and more informal, we propose to close the conference room again and use only the display room, creating in the centre, for example, a round stage, with a higher leds structure, also round, all around. A kind of 360º technology bandstand for short morning presentations.

2. Brunch / Lunch

Lunch in an unexpected but very noble area, with lots of light and direct access to the garden, guaranteeing all privacy to the participants, where we consider some simple scenographic elements.

3. Gala Dinner, Concert and DJ party

The general concept is the fusion of the digital with the increasingly rare but fundamental human relationship, in a perfect symbiosis between the virtual and the emotional. We have chosen the concept of installation of ephemeral architecture, with the implementation of a round tent in the hotel garden. Dinner and the concert will take place at the bottom (“floor 0”) and the DJ Party (in the second part of the evening) in a second level/floor of the tent that should contemplate a horizontal line of leds that outline the space in its entirety illustrating each moment of the night with sound and image in an enveloping way.

The change in values that the entire aesthetic building has recently undergone, from architecture to the plastic arts and shows, through the development of new means of communication and the ease of assimilation of facts and artistic phenomena, decisively allows new artistic expressions to be unbundled and reborn in different disciplinary fields.

The growing reflection on the current artistic culture has revealed the need for a more urgent pedagogical adaptation to real world conditions. The image isn’t a concept and yet now seems to prescribe one of the most important forms of organisation in society.

This metamorphosis, operated on an aesthetic and symbolic level, in the face of the speed, ease and abundance of signs, has made the aesthetic phenomenon more informative than cultural.

The solution presented for the 25th of April monument is to work on thought, history and culture. More than a mimetic presence, it seeks a discourse on the theme and to develop a discursive approach on the concepts to which the historical moment refers us. The roundabout populated by countless torn cylinders will hiss in hisses the cries of a past among the geometrically carved concrete mass. Two huge steel cable arches built, will reveal to the city the permanent and subtle movement as shadows of life and thought.

A gala dinner for 500 people, to promote and publicize a luxury real estate development to be held in Monsanto, Lisbon.

Entrance and Red Carpet

Tunnel with lights on the ground, following in people’s footsteps…

Interior

Stage area, for intimate concert of an artist on the piano. The board should have a nice dimension, because we will suggest a grand piano. It should be a part of the scenography with an extremely elegant beauty, given the type of concert (more intimate) that we will propose.

Involving the space inside

Our idea is to bet essentially on multimedia, motion graphics, glitch, 360 projections, thus allowing to change, throughout the night, the environment experienced by guests within the space. We should, therefore, privilege a scenography that lives of panels of leds, licras and other cheap blank materials, to be then visually works, in terms of multimedia, according to the intended: organic and surprising forms, but simple to execute and produce.

We send attached some images that served as “inspiration” for the creation of a totally digital scenographic concept. A digital concept that will contrast with the decoration of the tables (which will be very warm and glamorous, with candlesticks, candlesticks and the like).

Once again, and when it comes to the exterior/interior, our goal is to take the “tent” load off the structure. That is, that the guests do not feel that they are inside a tent, but an “installation of ephemeral architecture”.

In terms of timing, and given that we will have to estimate production costs, ideally we will receive your proposal by Friday, March 29th, at the end of the morning. By Monday we would try to get an estimated value for production and Tuesday the presentation will be made in Lisbon.
