Gawk Visual Engineers will showcase its TRIGA range at the upcoming Sign Africa and FESPA Africa Expo, taking place from 12-14 September at Gallagher Convention Centre.
Previously known as FSD, Gawk has rebranded its flagship product to fall in line with its global product brand. Due to trademark restrictions, the company were unable to use the TRIGA brand until now.
TRIGA Max
The fabric tensioning system will be showcased in addition to a line of accessories that gives this product even more versatility than before. TRIGA Max is well known in the industry as a world-class tool-less, modular textile display solution that can be built into a multitude of structures that suit a variety of markets including: activations, portable display, trade shows, retail branding, corporate branding and even home decor.
TRIGA Go – new product launch
Gawk’s brand new textile print tension system will be launched at the expo. This groundbreaking new product is based on the same principle and functionality as TRIGA Max, however it is half the weight and has half the parts. Taking the traditional systems like banner walls and pull up banners head-on, it is 100% South African, and Gawk is already shipping the product globally, looking to get buy-in from local resellers and end-users.
Once again, the company will be pushing boundaries from a stand design perspective to show that everything is possible with TRIGA. Gawk is incorporating ‘build-off’s’; where stand visitors will be invited to build structures with their systems.

Design Partnership wanted to bring Nando’s’ vibrant spirit to Horizon View, West Rand, by creating a ‘casa’ that truly reflected the vibrancy and authenticity of the brand.
Design Partnership’s architecture of the new Nando’s drive-thru model allows for a high degree of customisation to the exterior, which allows each store to be unique both internally and externally. By customising the exterior of the building, Nando’s allows the drive-thru customer to be as much a part of the design experience as the sit-down customer.
The key objective of this project was to get as close to Nando’s dynamic, nuanced, vibrant brand as possible. Marrying brand and space is always a challenge; more so when the brand is intentionally fluid.

Kia Motors Russia recently rolled out Scala’s digital signage solutions to boost sales and marketing. At the heart of the new Kia dealerships is Scala digital signage, driving communications through multiscreen video walls, standalone displays and interactive kiosks.
A total of 180 dealerships are now equipped with 540 Scala media players, driving over 500 different sized LG screens connected to the central KiaTV broadcasting system.
The KMR office in Moscow manages the network and can broadcast five different content channels to different screens. The displays can also feature live social media content, as well as corporate and product news.
Pavel Balan, dealer marketing at KMR said, ’The Scala digital signage network allows us to share the latest product, sales, aftersales and brand image information to Kia customers. Scala quickly scaled from driving a small number of passive monitors to allowing us to centrally manage a vast array of passive and touch screens across the whole of the Russian territory.’
New KMR dealerships across Russia are now equipped with a Scala-driven digital signage solution, and it’s a standard requirement for all new dealers joining the network. The entire network is managed from the KMR office in Moscow and broadcasts five different content channels across the dealer network onto screens located in various service areas. In addition, ticker line functionality is used to share social media content via live feeds, combined with corporate and product news.
Denis Savelyev of Scala certified partner Dismart said, ’Scala is the only system that allows us to operate such a mix of screens – video walls, standalone monitors and interactive kiosks as one system. The main benefit of Scala is that it’s not just a product, but a platform that allows us to create whatever we want without limitations.’
‘Scala is delighted to have supported a project of this scale for KMR, who had an innovative vision from the start as to how to use dynamic signage to drive their business,’ concluded Harry Horn, GM EMEA & VP Marketing Global of Scala.
Vedant Singhania received the ‘out of this world’ 3D printed spaceship at Comic-Con, San Diego.
Massivit 3D unveiled the ‘world’s first’ 3D printed Poe Dameron X-Wing Fighter charity wheelchair costume. The costume was the vision of a non-profit organisation, Magic Wheelchair and created for Star Wars fanatic, 13-year-old Vedant Singhania.
Companies that collaborated with Magic Wheelchair to make this project a reality include: Pixologic Inc, responsible for the design and modelling, Dangling Carrot Creative, which 3D printed the costume with Massivit 3D donating the printing materials, and Monster City Studios, which completed the assembly and finish.
The costume was unveiled at Comic-Con International, which took place in San Diego from 19-22 July 2018.
Utilising the high print speeds and dual print heads of its Massivit 1800 3D Printer, Dangling Carrot Creative produced 50 individual costume pieces in just over two weeks. The 2.44m high and 3m long spaceship provides Singhania with his very own Star Wars X-Wing fighter jet, crafted by some of the original Lucasfilm prop fabricators.
Magic Wheelchair provides bespoke costumes to kids with wheelchairs at no cost to their families. As part of Comic-Con’s special ‘Star Wars experience’ this year and its partnership with Pixologic, Magic Wheelchair selected Singhania to receive the extraordinary 3D printed costume.
Paul Gaboury, 3D Product Development Manager at Pixologic explained, ‘We connected with Magic Wheelchair, realising that our technology and modelling expertise could help them with the amazing work they’re doing for children in wheelchairs. After we designed the costume, Dangling Carrot Creative was the last piece of the puzzle. The company gave us the capability to 3D print life-size parts to help eliminate the need for moulds or casting, saving considerable time and money.’
Commenting on Massivit 3D’s involvement in the project, Avner Israeli, CEO at Massivit 3D said, ‘Together with our customers like Dangling Carrot, we’re constantly discovering new and exciting applications achievable with our 3D printing solutions for the entertainment market. This project has been an extraordinary opportunity to test the true value of our technology and to put young Singhania in the spotlight for the right reasons. There’s nothing quite so wonderful as bringing joy to a child.’
The costume was presented to Singhania at Comic-Con. He expressed his excitement and appreciation to all involved, ‘It’s mind-blowing. I didn’t expect the costume to be so big and I’m thrilled that it’s an X-Wing Fighter because I love Star Wars. I was really excited during the parade. I was so happy because all the people were taking pictures of me. It made me feel like a celebrity.’
