VOID is a multi-sensory spatial installation featured as part of the London Design Festival 2019. The installation included a 360-designed score by NYX as well as live performance activations across the exhibition period.


Photographer Dan Tobin Smith used footage of more than 100 gemstones, blown up to 60 times their size, to create an immersive installation in the basement of Collins Music Hall for London Design Festival.

The focal point of Void was a square of screens, set on a raised platform in the centre of the room, with each screen giving visitors a glimpse into the varied inner life of different crystals. Projected on to the screens were extremely close-up images of the kaleidoscopic worlds hidden within each stone, recreated on a vast scale.

London design studio The Experience Machine was tasked with displaying the films in the subterranean concrete space, which was achieved through the 360-degree screen set-up.
