Our designers received a gold award at The Association of Icelandic Graphic Designers Awards 2024 (FÍT Awards) in the "Interactive & Information Design" category for the Mammoth Model at the Climeworks visitor centre. The annual FÍT Awards celebrates the best Icelandic graphic design.
In the spring of 2024, Climeworks launched its second commercial DAC+S plant, Mammoth. Alongside the plant installation, a new Visitor Centre was opened at the Mammoth facility to educate visitors on the carbon capture process.
At the Visitor Centre, an engaging model of Mammoth was installed. Through tangible knobs, visitors can access in-depth information about the different modules within the plant and their roles in the carbon capture process.
The table was designed using birch and concrete-like materials to complement the architecture of the Visitor Centre. Its minimalistic and contemporary design fits seamlessly into the space's overall aesthetic.
