TSG were given the brief by Es Devlin to create a crescent moon shaped structure for the event at Cannes. The moon was to have a truss like quality to it and needed to incorporate a seating position made of clear polycarbonate. The finish of the moon was to be shiny so we elected to use our XO tube material which gave us a conundrum when it came to rolling without marking the surface. The base was to be pyramid shaped and had to incorporate ballast and have access to locking castors. These castors had to be operated by backing dancers in the dark so the cut-outs had to be appropriately sized. The biggest challenge to the project was the extreme deadline. We were given just 4 days from the initial enquiry until it had to be in Cannes.
