Advertisment Feature creativity of the Evolution Dome team when it took over the outdoor space around Bristol-based shopping Centre, The Mall at Cribbs Causeway. Providing four domes for the event, it included a large 15 x 30m cube which housed an impressive catwalk area. It was the first time the event used modern white structures, which were set on an Astroturf lawn for a village-like feel to the communal space. Floral hanging arrangements, technical lighting and AV worked wonders to finish off the catwalk space. The three smaller domes were used as breakout rooms and ‘experience’ spaces, to allow guests to sample and engage with beauty brands. When it comes to the B2B exhibition world, Evolution Dome is perfectly placed to ‘break up’ the show floor – we have provided our modular inflatable walling solutions at trade shows, and our smaller domes are often used as ‘rooms’ for breakout sessions away from the main show. Another change we have seen this decade is that sustainability is now higher on the agenda than ever before. We know that event organisers are always looking for ideas to reduce the economic impact of their event. Evolution Dome helped one company do just “Evolution Dome remains one of the most sustainable, reliable and cost-efficient temporary structures” that by taking the event in house, quite literally. Working with healthcare insurance provider, Simply Health, we provided six domes and a marquee to connect them all and hosted the company’s conference for 1,300 employees in their own grounds. It was hugely successful and not only meant time out of office and travelling for staff was kept to a minimum, but that the events team knew the space they had to work with inside out and could partner with as many local companies as possible to reduce environmental impact and boost local businesses. Ashley Austin, director of Evolution Dome said: “The journey over the last 10 years is trul in our name. Evolution Dome has most certainly ‘evolved’ over the past decade and we are looking to continue this success as we grow and innovative with new products and ideas for our trusted clients. “What I have seen during this time is just how creative organisers have become – exhibition spaces are transforming and we are always on hand to make sure we can give the advice, support and helping hand. We know our structures are an ideal solution for organisers.” To find out more about Evolution Dome visit www. evolutiondome.com or call the team on 01487 640 640. April — 61
