In the context of Samsung closing the gaps to provide an ecosystem where every product can be linked to another via AI, Cheil-MDLab was challenged once more with the task of designing the 3,300 sqm booth of the consumer electronics brand for the CES in January 2018.
Together with Cheil in Korea, a design concept had to be developed that highlights innovation as a core value of the Samsung brand and underlines the vision to connect all Samsung products by 2020. Opposed to previous exhibitions, the products where shown in groups, not sorted by category, but by possible connectivity scenarios.

Featuring the city as the “natural habitat” of connectivity, innovation and the global center of modern life, Cheil-MDLab created an urban theme using abstract building blocks which were composed of light and media screens.
The impressive “Skyline” that formed the main entrance to the booth linked media contents with the spatial gesture of the city, staging everyday life use cases of product connectivity. Entering the exhibition, the visitors could interact with the Samsung products and learn about their intelligent use in each of the city blocks.
