  we were inspired by the british pavilion on the expo 2010 in shanghai which was designed by thomas heatherwick. unfortunately the room is not existing anymore…

  we are looking for something similar or maybe even something comparable built from mr heatherwick in your country: a sparkling, glittering room where we could shoot tv commerical showing a party scene with approx. 50 people.

  we are aware that the room for the expo was unique so that it might be difficult to find something similar. it is important that the room has a modern contemporary feel and is not the classic baroque ball room in castles form the last century. but we are very open for any suggestion that go in this direction

  thank you very much

  Looking at your brief i would suggest Dubai or Abu, even Qatar. I saw the magnificent pavilion and believe with correct laser and lighting a lot can be recreated.
  In South Africa we have ample big ball rooms, convention halls that could easily be dressed.
  If you send me your mail I will send on to my Dubai affiliate at VIP Films and ask them for some references in UAE.
  I’m on colinc@nettek.co.za

  Also consider a bit of cgi. My CT post house could do something here. Check out Black Ginger Post.

  Hi,

  I wonder if this room would fit the brief for you. It’s a very large space. You would easily fit in 50 people plus crew and equipment. This location is in Spain.

  You might like this room too. It’s large, but you don’t have to use all of it. This is in London.

  Hello,
  Further to Marcelle from ADFC response here are a few more images of the same location.
  The rooftop pool and bar is partially covered and at night the roof is beautifully lit, there is ample room for 50 people.

  These rooms are part of the famous artifical center (Kunsthaus) in Graz, Austria,
  a gigantic and futuristic building.
