Coca-Cola Beatbox, London 2012, London, United Kingdom. Architect: Asif Khan Pernilla Ohrstedt, 2012. Illuminated, sculptural Be
The Coca-Cola Beatbox, designed by Asif Khan and Pernilla Ohrstedt is an experimental fusion of architecture, sport, music and technology that creates a stunning sensory experience. The visionary structure acts as a musical instrument, allowing visitors to remix Mark Ronson and Katy B’s ‘Move to the Beat’ Coca-Cola anthem ‘Anywhere in the World’ – as they pass through the building. Its giant crystalline facade structure is made up of over 200 red and white inflated ETFE cushions, each gravity-defying panel connected like a house of cards. Integrated within these panels is proprietary audio, illumination and interactive sensor technology, enabling the architecture to be embedded with rhythmical sport sounds.
