Overview:

Continuing their successful partnership, J&C Joel were again asked to dress Robe’s stand for PLASA 2016.

For this year’s show, Robe continued its commitment to innovation with another unique themed stand, this time inspired by 1970s London. As visitors stepped onto the stand, they were transported back in time to a cobbled London street scene. The immersive environment featured a bookshop, florist, café and even a full-sized red double decker bus.

To bring the theme to life, J&C Joel supplied over 300m² of digitally printed drapery. In addition, the team provided 650m² of perimeter blackout and ceiling drapery, alongside almost 200m² of digitally printed “cobbled” Joelmat (JMP001) flooring.

At the heart of the stand was Robe’s new Spiider fixture, forming the visual centrepiece of the installation. A total of 42 fixtured were arranged across a spider web, creating a spectacular lightshow that ran throughout each day of the show.

The web, which was created using Super-Ecru Morass (MOR005), was concealed behind drapes that transformed the stand into a theatrical space to show off Robe’s products.

To ensure a smooth installation J&C Joel’s talented Creative Manufacturing team spent two days on site dressing the stand and guaranteeing all the drapery, fabrics and flooring fit perfectly.

Sales Manager, Oliver Marns, said: “We were delighted to work with Robe to deliver another fantastic stand. Each one has become bigger and better than the last and we look forward to continuing this successful partnership to create something even more show-stopping in the future.”
