DISCO DUEL LOUNGE

Corporate Wooks Hijinx 24' After Party

Following one of the largest festivals hosted in Philadelphia, HiJinx Festival, we were tasked with designing a dedicated and enclosed lounge space for event attendees to explore and relax.

The goal was to transform a large warehouse environment into a warm, inviting space. We created a layered lounge experience that contrasted the intensity of the main event. Through soft textures, ambient lighting, and intentional spatial flow, the design encouraged guests to relax, connect, and extend the night in a more intimate setting.

Blending disco-inspired elements with grounded comfort, the Disco Duel Lounge reimagined the afterparty as an experience — not just a continuation.

Project Details

After large-scale festivals, afterparties often lack identity — functioning as extensions rather than experiences.

The opportunity was to create a space that felt intentionally different from the festival environment: something softer, more immersive, and human-centered, while still visually engaging.

For Corporate Wooks, this was a chance to deepen their brand presence by offering a distinct atmosphere that guests would remember — not just attend.
