The Under Armour Experience located in the new Jing An Kerry Center in central Shanghai, the space is divided into 3 zones of activity. Entry Light Tunnel, the Experience Room and Retail. Upon entry to the space you are guided down a 30-foot long tunnel of light, designed to alter you retina in preparation for the Experience room. As you enter the massive Experience space, an exaggerated scale, 220-degree panoramic film designed and directed by HUSH’s creative team, surrounds the viewer. The film, as it’s technically integrated into the architecture and user experience, is designed to tell the story of the Under Armour brand featuring the latest products and technology active in the sports world today.
As the film ends, you are invited to discover Under Armour products more intimately by moving into the retail space. The retail space hosts four individual product brand stories, designed as a temple of worship. The viewer engages each shrine to explore the Under Armour brand. Conceived to be a Pop-Up Experience for 6 months, it stayed open for 12 months to much fan fare.
