This Space Creative was engaged as the creative partner for the festival, specialising in precinct design. We developed a suite of custom elements including a striking entrance feature, bespoke ceiling installations, tailored signage, stall builds, and a premium waterfront guest lounge. Our Tasmania team worked closely with the client and vendors to deliver a strategically considered, visually impactful design that elevated the festival experience while maintaining practical functionality across the precinct. We also collaborated with the AV team to ensure all technical elements integrated seamlessly with the design and event logistics.
“In 2022 the Taste of Summer team were lucky enough to meet the wonderful crew at This Space. Like all event organisers, we continue to grapple with the rising cost of staging a major festival, and now more than ever, ensuring that the budget is taken into account as a key part of the design process. This Space understood this and were able to design and deliver a wonderful experience, whilst keeping in check with the budget, which is integral to the ongoing success of Tasmania’s Taste of Summer. The whole This Space team are engaging, creative, energetic and a pleasure to work with.”
