Get Electrified With This Comic-Inspired Installation<\/h1>\n\n\n

Hundreds of cities across the globe host their own comic con, an annual convention that draws crowds of comic-book and pop-culture enthusiasts. For this year\u2019s Sal\u00f3n del C\u00f3mic de Val\u00e8ncia in Spain last March, the city council engaged local firm Clap Studio to create a bespoke activity space that could be easily disassembled for reuse. Clap<\/a> cofounders Jordi Iranzo and \u00c0ngela Montagud responded with Cloud<\/em>, a knock-out installation that recalls something between a superhero comic strip and a Roy Lichtenstein painting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe used the flat, primary colors of comic culture,\u201d Iranzo explains of the canary-yellow and cobalt-blue paint coating Cloud<\/em>\u2019s plywood elements, which encompass 15 stools serving 15 CNC-cut recesses around a nearly 12-foot-diameter table, used for talks and workshops. The table\u2019s spiky form is modeled after the action bubbles that appear in cartoons\u2014think \u201czap!\u201d or \u201cpow!\u201d\u2014\u201cthe kind used to communicate sounds and make emotions visible,\u201d Montagud adds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But the table could also be interpreted as a bright sun, especially with the LED-lit partition surrounding it, its rounded, cloud-like trim also cut by CNC. Though it\u2019s meant as a separator from the rest of the hall, portions of it are only 5 feet high, allowing the curious a peek at what\u2019s happening within.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
