BRIEF:
CogX is the UK’s largest technology festival and the largest AI festival
outside of China. The team wanted to build on the success of their previous
two events, while expanding the size and capacity of the technology festival
to attract the nationwide recognition it deserves.
Marble were tasked with designing and producing the entire festival,
selecting the appropriate areas within Kings Cross to cater for 20,000
attendees (+400% increase on 2018) over three days, and big enough to
host 687 speakers (+129% increase on 2018) across multiple stages
(temporary or permanent). In addition, reflecting the Global Goals (UN
SDGS) throughout the festival was a core part of the brief, and the main
focal point for CogX partner Project Everyone.

has that attitude we need to deal with both the stress and the
joy that comes with an event of this size. Together we’ve brought
the vision of the festival I’ve had in my head to life. And it’s been
amazing, so thank you.’

BRIEF:
Firstminute Capital initially came to us to find a venue and assist
with branding elements for their annual LP Investor day. As the
planning process developed, the scope of the project continued to
grow. This meant further opportunity for Marble to do what we do
best and get creative with production and design. This included
the opportunity to design branded assets for all guests, right the
way through from Firstminute notepads and pens to a 50 page LP
booklet showcasing their company, portfolio investors and the days
agenda.
RESULT:
We chose the iconic Science Museum as the location for the LP day. This venue was
the perfect setting, spread across two floors, it had large open spaces, an
abundance of natural light and best of all, a breathtaking view of London. The top
floor hosted an exclusive line up of exciting panel talks, bursts and discussions from
some highly influential speakers, whilst downstairs we created a ‘portfolio room’,
showcasing and celebrating Firstminute’s investor companies.
Guests were then ushered downstairs for a drinks reception whilst, with the help of
the fantastic in-house catering team, the upstairs space was quickly transformed
from a conference into a dining room, ready for a delicious sit down three course
meal.

25. BRIEF:
To produce a series of Insta-worthy
installations to celebrate the Ned’s 1st
birthday in style.
We work with Soho House on a number
of projects across their London houses.
It’s a great testament to how malleable
the Marble team can be. Whilst Soho
House have a centralised office, many
of the event and communications teams
are dedicated to a specific house. This
means maintaining strong
communication lines that cannot blur,
delivering events in tandem or, in the
case of The Ned, as a stand alone
house that works with an independent
set of brand guidelines and aims.
RESULT:
Partnering with Crosstown Doughnuts,
we created a 2.3m high doughnut ‘tree’,
covered with more than 5900
doughnuts produced fresh daily. Balloon
installations above the bars and central
doorway added to the spectacle and
for the grand finale we filled the
rooftop pool with 400 branded rubber
ducks, brought to life under a canopy of
lighting.

BRIEF:
Limelight approached us, on behalf of Nike, to produce a creative
response to their event “London’s Fastest”. The event took place
across the City of London, beginning and ending at the Tate
Modern. The track took the participants through the heart of the
city, doing challenges as they go –competing to be the fastest
team.
RESULT:
We were asked to produce a creative lighting and branding
proposal for this event. Challenges included providing video
screens at remote locations across the inner city, lighting a
blacked-out car park and producing an interactive element to the
furthest corner of the course. Time was precious – we had a week
to complete this brief and deliver the event. Our in-house
designers and creative producer were thrilled at the challenge and
collectively we produced an outcome that Nike and Limelight
Media instantly loved.
31. BRIEF:
Cult (Common group) came to us to us
with a brief to create the world’s most
sustainable coffee shop in a pop-up
space in the old street roundabout. It
has to be fully sustainable, styled to the
brand, built in a day with the ability to
feed images to the press pre-launch.
RESULT:
We went through a journey from
compressed cardboard to Scandinavian
minimalism and arriving in CNC
heaven. All the materials we used to
create every single element that made
up the shop were sustainable from the
pegboard bars to the CNC coffee cup
tree. Even the coffee machine casing
was made from compressed coffee resin.
We created full 3D renders of the entire
space in a 3 day turn around so that PR
could launch to press with images to
the press.
A wicked project, right up our street for
sustainable prowess and style and we
love a quick turn around. All elements
built in-house from the fabrication
through to renders.
Achieved good press coverage including
Timeout, London on the inside, secret
London and Hoxton Radio as well as a
multitude of the trade press.

34. BRIEF:
Mae Deli, brainchild of Deliciously Ella is a beautiful British
market garden and dining area with pick-your-own seasonal
produce including fresh herbs, edible flowers and vegetables.
The concept reflects Ella’s food philosophy of ‘honest, simple
and natural ingredients’.
RESULT:
We fulfilled the brief within budget, designing the structure and
layout. The entire project was unique with every item tailor-made
including bars, shelving and storage. We managed the supply of
water and power to the site. Lastly, the structure and its contents
were made to flat pack, so the project can be taken on the road,
providing a greater ROI.
34
39. BRIEF:
To curate, create, project manage, and
produce The Fare Healthy exhibition. By its
third year, Fare Healthy had built up a
serious and respectable following in the
health food sector. We are long time
collaborators with Rose Lloyd-Owen, owner
of Fare Healthy and Peardrop. Rose came to
us one month before 5,500 delegates
descended on the Truman Brewery. They
were struggling to physically interpret the
brand over such a large space, which
consisted of seven distinct areas.
RESULT:
We took on the design, project management,
build elements, stages, bespoke build,
lighting, audio visual, audio and curation of
the project. There we eight distinct areas,
which all required their own unique character
and practical usability. We turned it round in
three weeks and came in £5,000 under
budget.
All of the flowers were upcycled as were
many of the production elements.

4000 attendees 45 ExhibitorsLiz Earle headlined
44. BRIEF:
To design and produce a 3 day fitness
festival for Live Well, hosted at Old
Billingsgate. In doing so we encapsulated the
Live Well brand and translated it into the
overall style and design of the public spaces,
streamlining the overall look and feel of the
festival and setting a precedent for their first
year. Live Well were particularly stringent on
focusing on the festival aesthetic and were
explicitly against hosting a festival that
looked generic and corporate.
RESULT:
With a total footfall of 4,000 over the 3
days; guests had access to a wealth of
exhibitors, talks and demonstrations, all
within an innovatively designed space. With
the event taking place in the beginning of
spring, we wanted to enrich the festival with
a zest of new beginnings. Visitors
participated and interacted with talks in the
lush, oasis haven ‘Knowledge Hub’ talks,
taste tested and questioned speakers at our
super sleek and slick live kitchen (showcasing
a 6 metre fruit wall) and sweated it out in
classes at a high octane and light infused
‘Move It’ stage – which featured a projection
mapped heartbeat pulsing to the beat of the
room.
We also designed and produced public
spaces for eating, resting and reclining,
styling them as extensions of slick scandi
cafes and bars as well as creating a young,
millennial palm inspired book shop.
Highlights included Liz Earle speaking at
the Live Kitchen, our hygge-themed VIP
room, and creating a fresh, branded
approach to Mind Body’s consultancy zone.
Other elements involved in the festival were
studio collaborations with One LDN, Define
Studios, The Foundry and KOBOX as well
exhibitors ranging from Mindful Chef to
Innermost.

45. ‘Working with Marble has been transformative; you bring fresh, innovative
and creative ideas helping to turn even the more mundane corners of our
event into a rich, textured, interesting and vibrant visitor experience. Your
attention to detail is outstanding and your ability to hold a clear vision of
what we’re trying to achieve and ensure that vision filters through to each
detail is nothing short of brilliant. The planning, production and on-site teams
are an absolute pleasure to work with, ready to lend a hand and troubleshoot
even on elements that are outside of your scope. The whole team loved what
you created, the visitor and exhibitor feedback has been tremendous and we
couldn’t be more impressed! Thank you and look forward to working with you
again soon.’

48. BRIEF:
Marble LDN was approached by Mission
Media to assist with the launch event for
their client Lululemon, to mark the opening
of the American yoga clothing retailer’s
Covent Garden flagship store.
RESULT:
The event was held in an enclosed courtyard
and in the surrounding Lululemon stores,
drawing over 200 guests including
celebrities, press and media.
By creating a custom see-through canopy to
fit the exact dimensions of the space, we
were able to achieve Mission Media’s
objective of utilising the courtyard and
shielding guests from the weather, yet
keeping clear views of the sky.
We also incorporated their request to build a
custom aluminium retractable structure to
accommodate 800 hanging Ranunculus
spanning the entire ceiling of the canopy.
This spectacular floral display was designed
and produced by the set designer Chloe
Rood, who works regularly with Mission
Media as well as Fiona Leahy Design. The
client praised our ingenuity in finding a
solution for the hanging flowers. The event
secured press coverage in the Daily Mail the
following day, announcing Lululemon’s
launch to the UK market, including a notable
mention of the floral roof centrepiece.

COACH Art Installation

COACH

51. BRIEF:
COACH approached us to help bring their out-of-home branded street art campaign to
life at their flagship London store on Regent Street. The PR stunt needed to feature
street artist Oker’s spray painted bespoke designs on the front window of the Regent
Street store, for 24 hours only.
The Marble team needed to secure permissions with the council, plan and coordinate all
logistical elements (such as how to protect the window) and execute the activation with
Oker – which needed to take place overnight ready for shoppers and passers-by at
6am. The brief campaign was only going to be live for 24 hours and the shop window
needed to be reset that evening.
RESULT:
We worked with the COACH team to turn this round in a short space of time; securing
permission from Westminster City Council, Crown Estates, New West End and Regent
Street Management Direct all within a few weeks before the installation. The colourful
bespoke Oker art was spray painted onto COACH branded window vinyl, which we
created with the signature ‘CC’ print for the 8m x 4.5m window. Oker himself then
painted the COACH campaign art on top of this, all in just 4 hours and before 6am, the
busiest time on Regent Street.
The vibrant artwork was noticed and shared by hundreds of passers by on one of
London’s busiest streets and circulated throughout social media and the press, including
an interview with Oker on the installation by the Evening Standard. 51

Boden AW19 Press Day

Boden

54. 54
BRIEF:
Following the success of the SS19 press day late last year, we
were thrilled to work with the Boden team again, this time for
their AW19 press event. We were tasked with finding a new
venue to showcase both the womenswear and Boden minis
collections, and the event design for the former was to focus on
a celebration of Britishness, creativity, quality and value of
Boden’s products.
The minis section was to take inspiration from Woodstock but
with a modern twist, and we were asked to create a bespoke
Tipi from SS19 Boden fabric. Another core part of the brief was
to create Instagrammable moments, which included a
personalised plates station. We were asked to design a station
for guests to watch their chosen illustration or initials drawn
onto bespoke Boden plates (hand painted by Marble).
RESULT:
We chose the iconic Elms Lesters Painting Rooms in Soho as the
AW19 press venue, an exceptionally interesting and bright
space, which was a stunning location to showcase the
collections. We wanted to give more space for key garments, to
put emphasises on the core elements of the season while
retaining an intimate feel for the guests. Our beloved florist
Willow Crossley collaborated with us on this event yet again,
we placed the mannequins in a beautiful, tall growing garden.
Beside the mannequins we created ‘Boden’s studio’, where some
of their team carried out life drawing, replicating the everyday
life behind the scenes of the business. To showcase the key
fabrics of AW19, we framed them in dark wooden frames which
were hung on one of the main walls to create a stunning
display.

59. STORY:
Noisily Festival shares a co-founder and
director with Marble LDN, so the two are
closely related. With 6000 people in
attendance the award winning festival
started by Charles Audley, Robbie Parry and
Lachie Gordon goes from strength to
strength. Before joining Marble, Bassline
Productions (the production company behind
Noisily) were our largest supplier and
handled all of light and sound design and
implementation. Now they are part of the
team.
59
“Set deep in the rolling hills of Leicestershire at the
heart of rural England, Noisily Festival of
Electronic Music and Arts lies in one of the most
beautiful wooded valleys in the country. Totally
contained amongst the trees creating a safe haven
where hedonism and escapism can flourish. 2016
saw the festival really make its mark on the UK
festival circuit with incredible production combined
with an amazing vibe.”
61. BRIEF:
To create a Wellington Boot sculpture for the
entrance piece to the festival. It had to
emulate the winner of a children’s design
competition, be completely wind and weather
proof and in top condition to be reused for
next year. We were also asked to rig the
entrance stretch tent, and help with the set
up of one of their main sponsors, Jessop’s.
RESULT:
It simply put a smile on everyone’s faces. The 6
metre tall welly was positioned right at the
entrance for all to see – it was perfectly
proportioned and looked totally realistic. The
boot was a focal point and centre piece for
the BBC presenters and coverage throughout
the weekend. The installation was
photographed by the BBC, a personal
highlight being watching the photographer
direct the crew to carry the boot off into the
sunset!
The Jessops stretch tents were rigged
beautifully and stood against high winds and
heavy rain during the North Yorkshire
summer, but the sun did pop out at least for
some of the live event. We look forward to
helping Countryfile Live deliver more of their
gorgeously wholesome events in years to
come!

64. BRIEF:
In January 2018, Killik & Co
approached Marble Music to curate a
music programme for a week long
series of inspiring panel conversations
and workshops at their venue in Soho.
Following this, the Marble Music team
was asked to extend the week long
service to a year long music
programme, for Killik & Co’s new
home at Northcote Road in Clapham.
RESULT:
The Marble Music team produced four
10-hour playlists that could be played on
shuffle, specifically created for this
programme. Taking musical elements from
Soho and splitting these into four
subsections, these playlists were curated to
create a pleasant ambiance for guests and
co-workers to enjoy. This music curation
service would work on a quarterly 80%
refresh basis. All four playlists are replaced
by updated versions in order to keep the
tracks fresh for employees who work in the
office full-time. Through this refreshing
system the Marble Music team will work
collaboratively with the client in order to
supply the best curation service possible.
64
66. 66
BRIEF:
We were asked to curate playlists for
the Taylor-Morris summer pop up
store in Notting Hill, they needed to
be brand-central and create a
welcoming ambiance for shoppers. The
Marble Music team met with owners
Charlie Morris and Hugo Taylor to
discuss their brand and target
audience. Following this, the team
curated two playlists, one for the day
intended for the shoppers and
another for the evening intended for
their brand events.
RESULT:
Overall, the playlists were a huge success,
shoppers consistently commented on the
music throughout the summer. To sum up,
Marble Music reached its goal of creating
higher connections between consumers and
the Taylor Morris brand.
