Our custom Split flap at Nespresso’s brings the NYC flagship to life.

Kinetic signage that doesn’t just tell you something, it shows you. Custom flaps blend text and solid color blocks so every transformation ripples across the display like a wave of letters and hues.

DAY #45: Split Flap as a Gameshow Scoreboard

Thanks to America's Culinary Cup, Oat Foundry's Split Flap hit the silver screen! In place of a digital display, the team at ACC opted for a mechanical Split Flap scoreboard, leveraging our large text and display sizes to build one of our largest boards to date.

DAY #43: Split Flap as an Office Message Board

Despite digital alternatives, there’s a lasting emotional resonance in turning the page of a catalog or taking down notes with a richly inky black pen. In offices flooded by pings and push notifications, these analog experiences are not only nostalgic but necessary. And it doesn’t just feel better; analog technology has a positive impact on learning and mental health.

That's why Split Flap is a great choice for an office message board. On the front end, Split Flap is a mechanical, all-analog medium. On the back end, updates are made from your phone or tablet, enabling users to schedule office messages or send them in real time.

DAY #42: Split Flap as Interactive Concierge

At the entrance to every hotel or office lobby, interior designers and architects pay close attention to the details that often go unnoticed but are deeply felt. When signage is considered from the beginning, it becomes more than a marker or a tool. It becomes part of the rhythm of a place, something people return to, recognize, and remember long after they’ve passed through.

A recessed installation style, paired with our analog "interactive concierge," can serve as a memorable first impression, with brand identity and values built directly into the design.

DAY #41: Chroma Flap as Analog Art

Thoughtful, kinetic, analog art is one of the best examples of experiential installations. Experiential architecture is quickly redefining how people occupy space, from large sports stadiums to modern retail storefronts, with architects and designers opting for bespoke elements over screens.

DAY #40: Split Flap and Picture Flap as Luxury Retail Signage

In the best-designed spaces, screens often fade into the background or disappear altogether. Luxury, at its core, isn’t about flooding your senses. It’s about choosing what matters, and leaving out what doesn’t. That shift isn’t just a design trend; it’s rewiring how luxury retail brands think from the inside out.

DAY #39: Split Flap for Currency and Loan Rates

Banks and credit unions are the latest to lean into hospitality design. Centered around inviting, immersive, and experience-driven environments, hospitality design is becoming a priority for financial institutions like Commonwealth Bank in Australia. Our sensory Split Flap signage (seen here at the Commonwealth's HQ) serves as a striking focal point.

DAY #37: Picture Flap as a Brand Identity Wall

Brands such as A24 benefit from a memorable visual identity, as seen throughout their marketing and cinematography. Similar to our past work with Netflix, we envision brands with a similarly striking visual identity benefiting from a Brand Identity Wall using Picture Flap. An expansive flipbook-style display (as seen with our A24 render) can rotate through iconic logos, vital brand photography, product showcases, and more.
