100% Design Auditorium

A mainstay of the annual London Design Festival, 100% Design brings together designers and architects in the festival’s largest trade show. For the 2018 event, we were commissioned to design the auditorium which would act as a focus within Olympia’s main hall and accommodate a huge range of talks, topics and speakers throughout the show.

In line with the show’s celebration of construction, the structure was fabricated on site from construction site netting woven through a simple timber frame. The vibrant colours of this standard material created a vivid backdrop and permeable enclosure for the events series, and created maximum impact from a very tight budget.
