DESIGN - FABRICATION - LOGISTICS
Dsenyo is an ethical-fashion brand and fair-trade gifts company with the goal of creating opportunities for hard-working African women. AAS was tasked with designing and constructing a custom, modular tradeshow booth to showcase the brand. The requirements: a modern, handmade aesthetic; lightweight, easy to assemble on site; and capable of travelling in a self-contained unit (we also fabricated custom travel crates!)

In preparation for the iTunes Festival and associated events, AAS carefully de-installed, inventoried, packed and stored (in our climate controlled art storage warehouse) over 300 artworks- the entirety of ACL’s displayed art collection. Once clear of the Festival, we returned the works to their exact original locations- as if nothing had ever happened!

DESIGN - FABRICATION - LOGISTICS
Matr Boomie is a wholesale fair trade fashion and gifts collection. Recently re-branded, the client wanted their trade show presence to reflect the contemporary yet handcrafted feel of the new brand. AAS was contracted to design and fabricate a completely custom trade show booth. The challenge was to create a booth that reflected a handmade aesthetic, with modular booth functionality. AAS delivered a booth which can be fully disassembled into its accompanying crates and fully reassembled with no power tools- but completely avoids the look and feel of a pre-fab trade show booth.

Briscoe Center for American History
University of Texas at Austin
2012 - 2015
DESIGN - FABRICATION - INSTALLATION
The Briscoe Center for American History tapped AAS to design and fabricate a visual display for the Campaign to Make History. The austere entryway to the Center was transformed into a bold signage point- with an 8’ x 30’ signage display wall gracefully arcing across the walkway. Inset photo panels of the Center's holdings illuminate the vast resources at the visitor's fingertips. A stand-alone video display kiosk explains the Center's development goals- and provides a point-of-contact for campaign contributions and further information.
