The Festival

During 3 nights the market will open up and transforms into a cinema, during the day workshops, talks and conferences will take place.

September 17th – 20th 2020,  Municipal Market of Matosinhos, Porto.

Design & Production process

The installation is developed in consideration of attracting the attention of people while passing by the market and also creating a airy visual borderline of the festival area.

By creating the rope installation the conference area was marked but keeping still an open atmosphere to sneak in. The colourful lines simbolize the cone of light and focus on filming.

The desgin of the seating island and tables follow the approach to keep production easy and low-cost.

During the design ideation phase different materials and shapes were explored and tested.
With a DIY spirit prototypes and the final products where made manually.
