HATCHfest

INNOVATOR'S LOUNGE

As HATCHfest dives into its fifth year, the Innovators' lounge proves to be the creative hub at the festival. Educational panels by day and stimulating entertainment by night, this lounge has become an amazing collaboration between diverse sponsors. In 2006, we set out to create a space that was changeable, reusable, and could be packed into a bag, travel and set up in a new location. The crew

at CTA ARCHITECTS came through with flying colors. Through a relationship built with JUXTAFORM they designed and orchestrated a space from fireretardant, four-way stretch fabric and wires.

The vibe, entertainment, lighting, and experiential footprint is programed by Red Bull Energy Drink and their fantastic network of local and regional DJs, VJs, artists, photographers, and musicians this room stimulates day and night. The multi-media flat-screens and

projection screens are generously provided by Vann's, the oldest electronics company founded in Montana, and furniture and rugs from Rocky Mountain Rug Gallery and Monarch Furniture and Design Group.
