Auckland's Switch design have clever things planned for this weekend



One of the collaborations at Urbis DesignDay this weekend is Auckland design studio Switch in cahoots with MINI. I asked some questions of Bevan and Chris...




How long have the Switch & MINI teams been planning your installation? 
According to the Account Manager, 226hrs & 30min.  

What might we see/experience at your installation? 
600sqm, 1 commercial sweeper, 2 scissor lifts, 28+ pairs of hands, 1 Big Colour, 7 sheets of MDF, 4000 sheets of A2, 128 sheets of Viscom Board, 4000 badges, 3000m of cord, 30L of paint, 5 large LEGO® bricks, incalculable amounts of vinyl adhesive, 4 cars and a giant YOU. 

We might have collaborated this year with MINI but what we have produced is anything but mini... 

If you were a MINI, which model would you be? 
If Switch were a MINI, we'd be the Countryman - we like big surprises.  

What is your current favourite piece of NZ design? 
Imperial Lane.
