Microsoft wanted to wow their top Asian clients with their latest technologies and services. The result is a multimedia envisioning center with vignettes depicting technology for work, home, and on the move. Each includes a ceiling-hung 61-inch plasma screen to tell the story and a backdrop of multiple plasma screens.

The presentations are stored on an MPEG2 digital player. This made synchronizing the multiple displays easy and affordable and saved equipment space.

Shen Milsom & Wilke devised a careful layout to isolate sound in the center's executive briefing center. Acoustically rated doors were also used.
