Troika has been commissioned by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office to create three new art installations for the UK’s Pavilion at the Shanghai 2010 World Expo. The work is currently on display alongside the main UK pavilion, the Seed Cathedral designed by the Heatherwick Studio. Exploring the pavilion's main narrative of 'Nature and City', Troika have come up with three distinct installations in which visitors are guided through the concepts of Green City, Open City and Living City. For a full press pack containing an overview of all three installations, please contact us. The 2010 World Expo Shanghai is open to the public until October, 31st. 

CLOUD has been selected by the Bundesministerium fuer Wirtschaft und Technologie (Berlin) to enter into Designpreis Deutschland 2011, the highest official recognition for design excellence in Germany. Awarded by the Federal Minister for Economics and Technology, and organised by the German Design Council (Rat fuer Formgebung) we are very honoured to be considered and would like to thank all parties involved who have made our iconic work, Cloud possible. 

The Design Museum is hosting a Pecha Kucha night on Friday 14th of May. Drawing its name from the Japanese term for the sound of 'chit chat', Pecha Kucha consists of a series of presentations that involve each participant showing 20 images for 20 seconds each. This evening's event features 14 designers including the nice people from 'It's nice that', Jason Bruges, Morag Myerscough and Dejan Sudjic. Sebastien will chit chat on Troika's behalf creating the soundtrack for 20 slides of Troika's latest adventures in Shanghai. 

See you there!
