[IMAGI-NATION] EMBASSY
THE PHYSICAL COMPANION TO THE DIGITAL WORLD
THE PROBLEM
Australian-founded charity - AIME, needed a physical platform to move throughout Australia and connect people to its upcoming digital nation - [Imagi-Nation] launching in March 2023.
THE SOLUTION
Boe Design worked with AIME to develop the ‘HUMAN/KIND/\\/KIND\HUMAN Embassy’ - a converted Queensland Ambulance turned music creation lab, performance space and podcast studio. Seeing success with this first Embassy, BOE Design is currently designing and building an additional three AIME Embassies in New York, Paris and Johannesburg.
HOW WE HELPED
1. DESIGN
We worked closely with the AIME team to guide the creation of the initial design brief from which the project was born. From there, we were able to provide rapid ideation to the client.
Our design services included:
Workshop facilitation
Ideation sketching
Computer-Aided Design (CAD)
Design for Manufacture (DfM)
2. BUILD
We managed the build of the Embassy for AIME including parts ordering, contractor management and budget - all within a tight, three-month project turnaround.
Our build management services included:
Creation of a Bill of Materials
Parts procurement
Management of budget requirements
Creation of supporting documentation for maintenance, safety and legal requirements
3. PM MANAGEMENT
Working with our network of suppliers and manufacturers, we delivered the completed embassy within three months of first contact with AIME.
