As my last project at Huge, I was the lead creative for the brand focused SK-II "House of Miracles" pop-up store in Hainan. The store was located at Sanya International Duty Free Shopping Complex and Haikou Sun&Moon Plaza, which is one of the most premier malls in China and a popular desinatin for people travelling form the Chinese mainland..

This project was done at the height of covid lockdowns which made the whole process quite complex, and we were unable to visit the site in person. All of the creative reviews and fabrication processes had to be done 100% remote, which posed an interesting challenge.

The popup itself was a month long feature at one of the most prominent atrium placements in the mall and a follow up to the pop-up that I had worked on the year before with an Olympic 2020(1) focus. This popup had a theme around the miracle properties of Pitera (the main ingredient in SK-II) and the design was centered around a series of immersive and tech driven experiences, all enabled by a wechat activation that accompanied shoppers around the store.

My design and concept not only drove record sales and increased brand awareness but also set a new standard in consumer-centric retail innovation at the location. Through this project, I was able to investigate and demonstrate how engaging, tech-driven experiences could transform the retail landscape and deepen consumer connection with the SK-II brand.
