Danish architecture firm BIG creates a unique and captivating experimental stage set for Danish pop group WhoMadeWho and its world tour. The defining feature of the entire set is the silver orb suspended in the air to create an immersive audio and visual design for attendees. It has an inflatable structure and mirrored look to reflect its surroundings with the addition of controlled lights and visuals.
Partner at BIG, Jakob Lange explains the design thought process, stating "Our design for WhoMadeWho's stage draws from our previous ventures into inflatable creations like SKUM and The Orb [at Burning Man]. With maximum visual impact, the inflatable sphere serves as a canvas for captivating three-dimensional video projections, elevating the concert experience to a new level."
