Project: Jules Verne Exhibition

Alice Scenic Studios brought the “Jules Verne Exhibition,” a project that brings the adventurous world of author Jules Verne to life, through a turnkey concept.

  • Scope of Work: 
    • Through turnkey project management, all design, engineering, and production processes of the exhibition were managed.
    • The production of iconic objects such as the Nautilus submarine, a giant squid, a diver sculpture, and a hot air balloon, as well as interactive play areas, was carried out.
  • Materials and Techniques Used: 
    • Detailed designs of the exhibition objects were created using 3D modeling and design software such as ZBrush, Rhino, and AutoCAD.
    • Large-scale and detailed figures, such as the Nautilus submarine and characters, were produced using fiberglass (FRP) molding techniques and supported with internal metal skeletons for structural durability.
    • Realistic textures, such as aged metal, were achieved with multi-layered artistic painting and airbrushing techniques.
    • Large-format digital printing was used for floor graphics and thematic backgrounds.
    • Custom furniture and integration solutions were applied for interactive touch tables and screens.
  • Project Objectives and Benefits Provided: 
    • Jules Verne’s iconic worlds were brought to life in a three-dimensional and interactive environment.
    • An unforgettable experience that is both educational and full of adventure was offered to visitors.
    • A literary heritage was transformed into a modern exhibition concept that attracts visitors of all ages.
    • Social media engagement was increased by creating impressive and thematic areas for photography.

Project: Gastronomic Themed Productions & 3D Sculptures

Alice Scenic Studios has carried out the turnkey production of a large-scale and concept-focused sculpture series designed with a surrealist approach, combining gastronomy and art.

  • Productions Within Scope:
    • A deconstructivist fish sculpture, with a realistic head and tail but with a golden skeleton as its body.
    • A large-scale garlic sculpture, partially peeled to reveal a glossy golden interior.
    • A large-scale egg sculpture with a flawless, mirror-finish golden surface.
    • A giant knife sculpture stuck into its pedestal, with a black handle and a glossy golden blade.
  • Materials and Techniques Used:
    • The main forms of all sculptures were produced with techniques like fiberglass (FRP) molding or hard coating over CNC-machined styrofoam (EPS foam) for smooth and complex surfaces.
    • PVD coating or special automotive paints with chrome/gold effects were used on the golden surfaces to create a mirror-finish effect.
    • On realistic parts like the fish head, detailed artistic painting and airbrushing techniques were applied.
    • The 3D designs and mold models of the sculptures were prepared using engineering and digital sculpting software such as SolidWorks, ZBrush, and Rhino.
  • Project Objectives and Benefits Provided:
    • Concept-focused sculptures with high artistic value that feature a gastronomic theme were produced for a restaurant, hotel, or special venue.
    • An artistic signature was added to the venue’s decoration to attract the interest of guests and create conversation.
    • The venue’s premium perception was strengthened by using luxurious materials like gold color and flawless surface craftsmanship.
    • Memorable works of art that go beyond standard decoration objects were created with a surrealist and modern art approach.
