MDC — Yes we scan

Barcode stripes taken off the product and blown up into the architecture, with the whole scanner range on open display.

The MDC stand with its barcode-stripe walls, product racks of handheld scanners and a magenta plinth.

Experience

The stand took the one graphic every visitor already knew how to read — the barcode — and blew it up to full height, so the walls were black and white vertical stripes before they were anything else. Against that, “Yes we scan” sat in magenta and blue, and the partner marks ran in a column down one edge: Zebra, Honeywell, Unitech, Ivanti and the rest. The products were not in cases. Handheld scanners hung on open racks at arm’s length, and a long white plinth cut as a city skyline carried more of them along the front, lit from above. A magenta totem reading “challenge!” marked the corner.
