Translink at the PNE
Project Overview
Client: Translink
Location: East Vancouver, BC
Duration: 2022
Scope:
To engage and educate the public on the use of multi-mode transportation during the annual P.N.E. fair.

Onlookers should be enticed to engage and interact with the installation.

Playable by both children and adults
Interactive and informative
Engage with the public

The Result
A crowd-pleasing old-school game that drew in a high volume of players who had fun and were informed about the different modes of transportation. We also added in the beautiful Translink Transit Garden where passersby were offered the opportunity to sit, have their caricature drawn by a sketch artist, or to simply snap a selfie with the beautiful floral backdrop.
Process
By up-cycling the hood of an old Honda Civic, installing a booming sound system, and inserting a plethora of lights we were able to create a novel interactive game that caught audiences’ imaginations.
