Concept: The 2013 Winter Wonderlab holiday retail experience was Google’s first big splash into the physical retail space in which we created a first-of-its-kind retail experience where visitors learned and played with Google products and stepped inside a life-sized snow globe to create their own slow-mo souvenirs via a custom robotic state of the art rig.
