Vertically drawing eyes upward towards a natural light filled space, the Oculus serves as a looking glass into the city. Through this lens, the content showcases the Houston region and welcomes visitors. Showcasing diverse and thought-provoking content on the Oculus’ giant display, the feature not only captures the attention of travelers but also elevates the airport’s image as a cultural hub.
Gentilhomme was enlisted by the Houston Airports team to create large-scale multimedia content to enhance the Oculus, a 2,000-square-foot cylindrical media feature that links the international departures and arrivals hall at George Bush Intercontinental Airport. This media feature includes a sophisticated display and control system. It was designed to display high quality creative and generative multimedia content.
