The ‘Curiosity Rooms by Google Pixel 3’ brought the Pixel 3 to life. The experience hub invited people to celebrate fashion, food, music and tech in unexpected ways.
Staged in the heart of Regent Street the project had three waves of collaboration: agency; media; culture. There was a collaboration between five partner agencies to put the experience together in eight weeks with Amplify leading from a creative brand experience, design and production standing.
The media collaboration saw nine media partners including Vogue and GQ take the rooms beyond the physical location. Lastly smaller retail, design and food collaborators made the pop up a cultural destination.
Through these collaborations, the Curiosity Rooms welcomed 71,000 attendees and reached 80million+ online.
