About the Project

For the Savage X Fenty immersive launch in Williamsburg, I crafted a high-contrast, deeply atmospheric lighting setup that reflected the brand’s raw, disruptive identity. Set in an industrial venue, the main challenge was to seamlessly blend structural lighting with monumental, larger- than-life multimedia projections without washing out the digital displays The architectural design featured floating translucent scrims and monolithic walls showcasing bold campaign imagery. To integrate these digital canvases into the physical space, we applied nuanced color treatments to the existing structures, casting deep, moody deep crimson washes and saturated electric blues that echoed the video content’s visual rhythm We complemented the environment with traditional film lighting techniques. Using highly controlled, directional fixtures, we sculpted the darkness to create dramatic focal points while keeping stray light off the projection surfaces. This ensured the projected skin tones remained vivid and true to life, while the room maintained an intimate, exclusive club-like vibe The sharp contrast of fiery reds and deep, cold blues created high-impact, multi-dimensional backdrops from every angle. This immersive atmosphere captivated attendees in real time and provided flawless, studio-quality backdrops perfectly calibrated for high-end digital takeaways.
