News: Apollo Design4Retail for Clarins

A custom bubble tube containing Clarins products
Interactive light, sound and bubble experts Apollo Creative have collaborated with retail design specialists Design4Retail to provide Clarins with an exclusive point of purchase (POP) display to help promote the launch of their HydraQuench skincare range in Selfridges' London store.

Design4Retail were instructed to communicate the benefits of Clarins’ new brand in a unique manner and approached Apollo to assist their Technical Designer to create a stunning promotional feature.

Four extra wide tubes were created and customised with ultra-bright blue LED illumination. These elegant bubble tubes were used to portray the idea of hydration and were specifically designed to allow for the suspension of the new product range within oxygenated water; creating a mesmerising and attractive focus for Selfridges’ customers.

Apollo’s skill and experience within this field have helped them develop a leading edge reputation for providing revolutionary new products into the marketplace. As well as providing a standard range of products (which include bubble tubes, walls, domes and fibre optic light sources), Apollo also support special projects and companies with unique/bespoke requirements.

More recently Apollo’s product have grown in prominence as contemporary interior design features and can be seen in hotel lobbies, restaurants, bars and homes; and current projects include interactive fountains, exhibition stand designs, light and sound rooms, multi-sensory environments, digital play areas and museum interactives.

Jon Vinall, Director at Design4Retail said – “Apollo Creative provided us with effective products and a co-operative project management service. Our own technical designer was able to work with the team at Apollo to ensure that our exact needs were taken on board. The bubble towers we purchased from Apollo were delivered on time, to spec; were highly effective and used in an unusual way to create a successful promotional launch.
