As a feature necessary for their sales center, Strategic Capital was in search of a wayfinding and context model for their newly designed residential tower. Greenwich West is located in the West Soho neighborhood. One of the benefits to being here is proximity to local fare, as well as views of the Hudson River.

Dynamo Playground’s Quad Pod is an innovative climbable spinner, but the special features of the design are difficult to describe in 2D renderings. LGM was tasked to bring the design to life by engineering a scaled version of the climber for their trade show events.
