Manifattura Tabacchi - Viale Regina Margherita, 33 09125 - Cagliari
Smeralda Consulting amazes everyone at Sinnova 2017 by using an eco-sustainable cardboard set-up to demonstrate that innovation passes through ethical and ecological choices.
Smeralda Consulting & Associati is an Italian company that has been operating for over fifteen years in the field of specialized consultancy both for proven companies and for the public administration. On the occasion of the fourth edition of Sinnova, the exhibition of innovations in Sardinia, he commissioned us to create a sustainable set-up in line with the theme of the event. Private companies and public bodies met in the Manifattura Tabacchi building in the beautiful city of Cagliari to give life to workshops, conferences and round tables to compare their ideas to derive new strategies for the development of the future of the Sardinia region. Numerous projects were presented by private individuals and universities on topics such as artificial intelligence, technology, energy, aerospace, ICT, sustainable tourism, investment funds
Thinking of a space that was sustainable to arrive at a future aware of the changes taking place and how important it is to do everyone’s part was a challenge. There was talk of innovation and the players involved in the event were and still are the architects of a fair and just social and economic development for all. Many universities and local administrations support projects for the various sectors. We therefore thought of giving shape to the volumes by giving them a very futuristic style but maintaining an indispensable green soul. The eco-sustainable set-up covered many areas of the available space. The most characteristic elements were the walls of the various stands of the universities of the region present, which in some cases served as real backgrounds, in others in simple dividers in front of which consoles or workstations were positioned for meeting visitors. In some stands these walls curved in space, distorting into a vault of imaginative pixels, against the background of which the company logo was composed. The central info point where visitors were welcomed at the entrance was created with console counters from the Vago series in white cardboard and printed logo of the event. The individual workstations included a cube-shaped counter made to measure for the occasion and stools from the Soi series. The space dedicated to conferences has been furnished with armchairs from the Golliaz series with related tables, Soi Plus stools and chairs for the public from the Taviela line.
Finally, to embellish the space, structures were created consisting of interlocking and colored cubes, indicative banners and cardboard of the mascot robot of the event.
