National pavilion celebrations provide an opportunity to introduce new layers of cultural storytelling within an established exhibition environment. Any additional scenic elements must complement the existing architecture while creating a distinctive experience for the occasion.

For the Montenegro Pavilion National Day celebration at Expo 2020 Dubai, Evolution Scenic designed, fabricated and installed a bespoke exhibit that enhanced the existing pavilion through a combination of custom joinery, acrylic fabrication and integrated lighting.

The installation introduced a new visual feature while remaining consistent with the pavilion's established design language, combining traditional fabrication techniques with contemporary materials to create a refined and engaging visitor environment.

The Challenge

The project required a new scenic exhibit to be introduced within an existing national pavilion without disrupting its established visual identity.

The installation needed to reflect Montenegro's cultural narrative while maintaining a contemporary aesthetic appropriate to Expo 2020 Dubai. Integration was particularly important, with the new fabrication, acrylic elements and lighting required to feel like a considered extension of the pavilion rather than a temporary addition.

The finished installation also needed to combine visual impact with the durability and quality of finish required for a high-profile public exhibition environment.

The Solution

Evolution Scenic developed a bespoke exhibit specifically for the Montenegro Pavilion, carefully considering how its form, materials and lighting would integrate with the existing interior.

Traditional joinery techniques formed the foundation of the fabricated scenic elements, providing the structural quality and detailing required for the installation.

Custom acrylic lighting features were incorporated to introduce depth, illumination and a more dynamic visual character. The interaction between fabricated surfaces, acrylic elements and integrated lighting allowed the exhibit to become a distinctive focal point while remaining connected to the wider pavilion aesthetic.

Detailed scenic finishing completed the installation, ensuring the new elements aligned with the pavilion's existing design language and delivered a cohesive environment for the National Day celebration.

Seasonal attractions can combine entertainment with education when the scenic environment is designed to support both storytelling and participation. For Winter City 2023 at Expo City Dubai, Evolution Scenic delivered Santa’s Sustainable House as an immersive festive attraction built around Christmas storytelling, interactive engagement and sustainability.

The experience combined a sustainably built Santa’s House, a fully staged workshop environment, interactive scenic features and educational content. Each element was developed to maintain the warmth and character of a traditional Christmas setting while reflecting Expo City Dubai’s wider commitment to sustainability.

The Challenge

Santa’s Sustainable House needed to work simultaneously as a festive attraction, an interactive visitor experience and an educational environment.

The scenic design had to retain the recognisable visual language of Christmas while also introducing sustainability themes in a way that felt natural and engaging rather than instructional.

As part of Winter City 2023, the attraction also needed to integrate seamlessly with the wider seasonal environment and contribute to a consistent guest journey across Expo City Dubai.

The Solution

Evolution Scenic developed Santa’s Sustainable House as a themed scenic environment combining sustainable material choices, immersive storytelling and interactive visitor participation.

The house was designed and constructed using eco-friendly materials to align with the sustainability principles of Expo City Dubai.

Inside, a fully staged workshop environment was created with elves and themed scenic details, providing a setting where sustainable practices could be presented through a festive narrative.

Interactive scenic features allowed visitors to engage physically with the environment and explore sustainability themes through hands-on experiences. These elements were developed to support educational content without losing the warmth, humour and visual character expected from a Christmas attraction.

The overall scenic treatment was coordinated with the wider Winter City theme, helping Santa’s Sustainable House feel like an integral part of the seasonal destination rather than a standalone installation.

Delivery Highlights

The attraction allowed guests to explore environmental themes through an immersive setting rather than through conventional displays alone. The staged workshop, interactive scenic elements and sustainable material approach helped turn the space into both an entertainment feature and a learning experience.

The project demonstrates Evolution Scenic’s ability to develop themed environments where scenic fabrication, visitor participation and educational messaging need to work together within a coherent and engaging experience.

International policy conferences require exhibition environments that can communicate complex ideas clearly while supporting interaction, circulation and a high standard of presentation. For the 18th session of the UN Industrial Development Organization General Conference at Emirates Palace in Abu Dhabi, Evolution Scenic transformed the atrium into the central exhibition environment for the five-day event.

Held from 3–7 November 2019 under the theme “Industry 2030 – Innovate. Connect. Transform our Future,” the conference focused on innovation and sustainable industrial development. Evolution Scenic’s scope centred on seven themed hubs, interactive digital stations, custom scenic panels, display structures and a dedicated photo gallery, all integrated within the existing atrium environment.

The Challenge

The exhibition needed to present multiple policy themes within one coherent visitor environment while preserving the functionality and circulation of the Emirates Palace atrium.

Seven themed hubs had to communicate different subjects, including Gender, Youth & Entrepreneurship, Circular Economy, Industry 4.0, Industrial Parks, Sustainable Energy and Partnerships.

The exhibition also relied heavily on interactive content, meaning touchscreens, large displays, AI stations, iPads and headsets all needed to be incorporated into the scenic structures cleanly and securely.

A dedicated photo exhibition also required its own display environment, adding another layer to the overall fit-out.

The project was delivered within a tight production timeline, making coordination between fabrication, technology integration and on-site installation essential.

The Solution

Evolution Scenic constructed a series of custom scenic hubs designed around the seven conference themes.

Each hub incorporated bespoke scenic panels and interactive stations tailored to the content being presented. The physical structures were developed to support both branded information and digital interaction without making the exhibition feel visually fragmented.

Touchscreens and large-format displays were integrated into the hubs, alongside mounting systems for AI stations and personal iPads with headsets.

A dedicated photo gallery was also fabricated for Elisabetta Lattanzio Illy’s exhibition, using custom display structures to present the photographic work within a clearly defined gallery setting.

Across the wider atrium, scenic elements were positioned and installed to enhance the visual character of the exhibition while maintaining guest circulation and functionality.

The complete package was coordinated to balance presentation quality, structural integrity and interactive use within the compressed delivery programme.

High-profile financial launches require event environments that communicate authority, clarity and international significance without distracting from the importance of the occasion. For the launch of ICE Futures Abu Dhabi at ADGM on 29 March 2021, Evolution Scenic delivered a refined scenic environment centred around a bespoke stage, branded backdrop and premium finishes.

The launch marked a significant milestone in crude oil futures trading based on ADNOC’s flagship Murban crude and brought together ADNOC, ICE, ADGM and nine global energy partners. Evolution Scenic’s role was to ensure the physical event setting reflected the scale and importance of the launch through precise scenic fabrication and a cohesive branded treatment.

The Challenge

The event required a visually strong but highly professional setting suitable for an international financial and energy-sector audience.

The scenic environment needed to align with the identities of both ICE and ADNOC while also complementing the architecture of the ADGM venue.

Because the launch represented an important commercial milestone, the stage, backdrop and surrounding scenic components needed to feel polished, precise and premium, with no visual inconsistency between branding, materials or finishes.

The Solution

Evolution Scenic designed and fabricated a custom stage and backdrop tailored to the event branding and the surrounding venue environment.

The scenic treatment incorporated ICE and ADNOC branding prominently while maintaining a clean and sophisticated visual language appropriate to the nature of the launch.

Premium materials and finishes were applied across the fabricated elements to create a refined and professional appearance.

The stage and backdrop were developed as a coordinated composition so that branding, proportions and scenic finishes worked together as one visual environment rather than as separate components.

Through careful fabrication and detailing, Evolution Scenic created a setting that supported the formal nature of the event while reinforcing the importance of the ICE Futures Abu Dhabi launch.

Urban planning forums need environments that can support strategic discussion, collaborative problem-solving and future-focused thinking across multiple programme formats. For the Plan Capital Plenary Session and Workshop in Abu Dhabi, Evolution Scenic delivered scenic and technical solutions designed to transform several venue spaces into functional and visually connected environments.

Hosted by the Department of Urban Planning and Municipalities, the event focused on urban innovation and long-term strategies for the next 10–15 years. Evolution Scenic’s scope included a main plenary stage, a dedicated Innovation Hub, 14 customised workshop setups, scenic backdrops, modular partitions, workshop furniture and AVL support.

The Challenge

The event required several different programme environments to operate within one coordinated venue.

Technology competitions require event environments that feel visually aligned with innovation while still supporting live presentations, participant activity and audience engagement. For the CyTaka World Cyber Championship in Dubai, Evolution Scenic delivered a futuristic scenic environment for an international live hacking competition bringing together coders from around the world.

Working on the event for the second consecutive year, Evolution Scenic delivered the stage, branded scenic elements, podiums, lightbox signage and other bespoke features within an exceptionally compressed programme. With less than one day available for build-up, the project required highly coordinated fabrication, logistics and installation to ensure the venue was fully prepared for the competition.

The Challenge

The CyTaka World Cyber Championship required a visually distinctive environment capable of reflecting the high-tech nature of the competition while supporting a demanding live event programme.

The scenic treatment needed to establish a futuristic visual identity across the stage, branding and supporting event features.

The main challenge was the installation programme. With less than one day available for build-up, scenic elements had to be prepared in advance and installed with minimal margin for delay.

The short timeframe placed particular importance on coordination, accuracy and installation sequencing, as the event environment needed to be completed rapidly without compromising presentation quality.

The Solution

Evolution Scenic fabricated a custom stage designed around a bold, futuristic aesthetic suited to the technology-focused nature of the championship.

Branded scenic backdrops and additional features were installed throughout the venue to extend the event identity beyond the principal stage.

Custom podiums were produced for the competition environment, while illuminated lightbox signage introduced further branded focal points throughout the space.

Additional bespoke scenic elements were fabricated as required to complete the event environment and create a consistent visual treatment across the venue.

Because the build period was less than one day, Evolution Scenic coordinated the installation carefully to allow the different scenic elements to be deployed rapidly and accurately within the available programme.
