This fictive pop-up concept for i-D magazine ‘Give my i (eye) a break’ enabled the magazine reader to physically connect with i-D, by triggering different senses. It was based on specific key insights that where gained in a target audience study and brand research for i-D Magazine. It was built on the insight that the target audience wanted to physically interact with the brand; an interaction in which other senses were triggered apart from sight. Iris connected this insight with the current experience economy trend and the magazine’s mission to showcase artists. Every edition has a different collaboration with an artist.
The pop-up event has different editions and every edition has a different theme. One of the four themes called ‘i odour you…’ was visualized. In this edition of the pop-up event, the i-D target group is able to discover different sub-cultures through scent. The scent maze would eventually show them which sub-culture fits their scent ‘taste’. The different scents are fictively created by the scent artist Sissel Tolaas.
The pop-up brand expression ‘i odour you…’ based on the concept; Give my i a break.
3D expression, made in collaboration with Marije van der Wal.
For the online strategy, a teaser video was made to promote the event, using both i-D’s and my own video content. The audio track used in the video was made by Titus Blekemolen and the video itself was edited by Iris herself.
