The La Cimbali event within the La Scala laboratories, on the occasion of Host 2019, was a light and sound show that transformed the Visconti Pavilion into a space of multi-sensory experience.

Architectural light and multichannel sound surrounding

The interest of the project lies in its “lightness” and technological complexity. A tailor-made multimedia system guides the experience of almost a thousand participants through the control of immaterial elements such as light, sound, and video that add to the olfactory and taste ones related to the world of coffee. The visitor is guided through a multi-channel surround sound synchronized with a dynamic architectural lighting system and video mapping.

Multisensory experience in two acts

The pavilion’s layout is minimal. Its industrial surfaces are integrated only with textile elements, functional for shielding the paths, and used as backdrops for lighting effects. The evening’s program is organized in two acts that mark the events of the evening: welcoming, aperitif, opening, banquet, performing, concert, and party.
