NATURE OF BUSINESS
COMPANY INTRODUCTION
5. !!
SPACE ALIVE CONCEPT For hotels, restaurants, Offices,
Shops and Exhibitions. Space Alive is a new innovative
and patent pending Finnish design concept created by
dSign Vertti Kivi & Co. With Space Alive it is possible to
adjust the mood in the space and entertain client in a
new way. Space Alive changes space both in physical
and emotional way. It is possible to schedule morning,
day, evening, night mood or even fall, winter, spring,
summer feelings in the space.
All this is possible with silent motorised rails that move
light walls, canvas, light effects, height adjusted lamps,
movable pictures. Lights, sounds and scents are
combined to the system. With different combinations it
gives enormous opportunities to entertain the client in a
new way. Scheduling is easy with browser (Firefox, IE
etc…)
SPACE ALIVE CONCEPT
/ THE RADICAL DESIGN BREAKTHROUGH
Evening mood
Morning mood
How do we do it? Simply with our space alive™ -concept.
6. !
Usually Hotel and Restaurant interiors are like still pictures. We think that the interiors should be able to change depending the
time of a day for different target groups to get more sales. With our Space Alive concept this is possible to do, and much more:
We could create a real Talk- Of-The-Town!
- Different target groups: Morning / Day / Evening & Night?
- Different use depending the time of a day: Breakfast, Lunch, Cocktail Lounge, Sports bar, Fine Dining
- Space Alive in Hotels & Restaurants: Talk-Of-The-Town & Marketing -Media Publicity: More people & Sales
- On-line Marketing Campaigns
The space would be used for different needs and groups: If you have the space only for one use in the evenings (Dinners), you
loose day sales. With space alive we could have at least three spaces in one, and thus the sales would increase
