Last week I helped out at Charlotte Mei's pop-up exhibition/shop in Boxpark, Shoreditch.
The front of the exhibition/pop-up shop, examples of vinyl stickers
Charlotte had vinyl stickers made, they were such a good idea! Before she had a blank sign and box, adding stickers made her exhibition stand out a lot more. I'm finding it hard to describe why, but it just looks more legit. The plant pots work too, they make the exhibition look homely and lived-in. Otherwise it would just be work floating in a white space!
Inside the shop - balloons!
Balloons! Balloons! Balloons! On the evening of the private view these moved upstairs and became party decorations. In the back on top of the t-shirt rail, you can see some cushions Ruby, another intern, made. They're so cute! They also moved upstairs to be tied up either side of the DJ booth. It was a great way to decorate the space!
Prints for sale
These prints were very impressive, they were scanned at a ridiculously high DPI - they took 16 hours in total to send and download! It was all for the posters upstairs, they were very large and so a low res image (or even a normal high-res) would have looked pixelated and a bit crap.
How to make a white cube look homely
Charlotte also had some perspex pieces laser cut, the HAVE FUN sign up there and some hearts and stars. They were such a simple way to make the place look so professional! As you can probably tell, the whole exhibition had such a nice vibe. Friendly and open!
Cute small ceramics
Plushies!
I've learnt so much from Charlotte, from little things like getting a card reader to big things like sponsorship and working with brands. I'm so grateful!
