NEWSEUM
Challenge:
The Newseum is the world’s most comprehensive presentations of international news artifacts and is one of the most
talked about museums in Washington D.C. kubik was responsible for housing the museum’s huge collection – over
81,000 pounds of priceless materials – and for developing exciting new approaches to installation and usage.

Highlights:
The Newseum has over 250,000 square feet of space and contain thousands of artifacts of great historical and social
importance, including a shrapnel-riddled news truck, an original Berlin Wall guard tower, and a gallery featuring
every Pulitzer Prize winning photograph taken since 1942. Innovative and interactive multimedia centres, designed
by kubik, broadcast major news items from the past fifty years and show video interviews with nearly 70 Pulitzer
Prize winning photographers. In all, kubik shipped over 100 tractor trailers of materials to be used throughout the
Newseum’s 15 theaters, 14 major galleries, 130 interactive stations and two cutting-edge broadcast studios.

Results:
The 3-year Newseum project required us to develop new approaches to installation and innovative new ways to
utilize materials. The unique content and exciting installation have made The Newseum one of Washington’s premier
cultural destinations, and critics agree that it represents the future in terms of design and construction of museum
galleries.


PINK ROCCADE INTERIORS
Challenge:
PinkRoccade is one of Europe’s largest ICT groups and a global IT services
company with operations in The Netherlands, United Kingdom, Belgium
and Canada. kubik was approached to translate their new corporate identity
into 3D design solutions for office interiors, trade show presentations and
event programs.

Highlights:
kubik designed a completely new Techno-Plaza — a central presentation
area in PinkRoccade’s corporate offices that the company uses to
demonstrate all of its latest IT services. Based on the guidelines of the
corporate identity, we designed and produced office entrance areas, meeting
rooms, exhibition booths and presentation units, branded with the
consistent corporate look and feel of PinkRoccade.

Results:
The impact and success of Techno-Plaze led PinkRoccade to ask kubik to
develop our initial ideas into a full-scale communications campaign. We
designed and executed trade show booths and other events, flawlessly
carrying the initial concept through several communication media.


HYUNDAI
Challenge:
On the Auto Show circuit, Hyundai competes with every other manufacturer to make their products stand out
among the 1000 new vehicles on display. Our challenge was to create a striking new environment that would be
an irresistible draw for customers and a showcase for the complete Hyundai product line.

Highlights:
The kubik team drew on years of Auto Show experience to create a dramatic, yet intimate 17,000 square foot
environment for Hyundai. We erected a huge tensile structure as a canopy over the space – an innovative structure
that combined swooping architecture, specialty lighting, flowing scrims and complicated canopies to create a strong
brand presence.

Result:
The stylish enclosure was visible from almost anywhere on the show floor, forming a perfect backdrop for the
Hyundai logo. It enabled Hyundai to present their cars in a way that consumers had never seen before.


OPEN TEXT CORPORATION
Challenge:
Open Text is an enterprise integration company known as “The Content
Experts™”. For their new trade show program, they asked kubik to create a
customized, fully modular system with a look and feel that could easily
translate from large booth sizes to small pop-up and table-top exhibits.
Highlights:
The assignment came with an extra challenge: a deadline of less than a
month’s time until the booth’s premiere at ARMA in San Antonio, Texas.
The kubik team came together flawlessly to design and fabricate the custom
exhibit and ship it to Texas for the opening of the show. For that show,
components were configured as a 20' x 30' exhibit that featured a 16' high
tower and a four-sided custom banner structure. For later shows, the booth
was re-configured into 10’ x 10’ and 30’ x 30’ arrangements, without losing
any of the branded visual impact.
Results:
The custom nature of the project, along with the demanding schedule,
brought out the best in the kubik team. Open Text got what they came for
– a high impact, extremely practical exhibit that met every expectation they
and their customers had.


ABN-AMRO VOLVO OCEAN RACE PAVILION
Challenge:
ABN AMRO, one of the largest banks in the world, was sponsor to 2 competitors in the 2005-2006 Volvo Ocean
Race. To showcase the bank’s role in this high-profile around-the-world sailing race, the exhibit we designed and
built had to be portable, robust and very well supported, all around the world.

Highlights:
kubik designed a complete on-site marketing package for the entire international event. We began with a
communications theme and 3D style guide that drove for the design of all event materials, including a turnkey
hospitality pavilion that we produced and installed at seven major race stopovers, an office and port branding
program, and the international event marketing guide that kept it all on course.

Results:
The event marketing guide provided our client with a communications tool that ensured consistent branding, both
to clients and employees of the bank. And our international experience helped to guarantee flawless execution of
this prestigious worldwide hospitality program.


NIKE INC. ART OF SPEED EVENT
Challenge:
A fascination with speed in sport is almost universal, and attracts the talents of artists, musicians, writers and
photographers all around the globe. Nike challenged us to create an event that would interactively and artistically
connect international social and cultural influencers with the Nike-sponsored concept called “The Art of Speed”.
Highlights:
Cultural leaders in the worlds of film, photography, fashion, media and graphic design came together to celebrate
the “Art of Speed” with music, food, dance and video – all combined to create a stop-in-your-tracks experience for
the launch of a new product line.
Achievements:
The Toronto event attracted global attention to NIKE and this exciting and important brand dimension. This
event, along with others held simultaneously in London, New York and other cities around the world, locked in
the connection between the Nike brand message and the artistic side of sports.
