GOMI/ OUR FACTORY

Where design meets reality.

In Guangzhou, spatial and interactive ideas are resolved through fabrication, integration, testing and packing for the realities of daily use.

ENGINEERING & PRODUCTION

DESIGN INTENT, CARRIED INTO MAKING

Production begins with approved design and engineering information. Frames, panels, mechanisms and electrical systems are developed as connected parts of the visitor experience.

Fabrication, electrical integration, assembly and testing remain connected to the design intent. Making becomes another stage of design: a place to resolve physical detail without losing sight of the visitor experience.

THE PRODUCTION SEQUENCE

MACHINING, METALWORK AND FINISHING

The documented workshop inventory includes lathes, milling and drilling equipment, CNC engraving, laser cutting, sheet-metal forming, welding, panel cutting, cleaning and finishing facilities.

01

Design intent

Approved design information makes the purpose of every part explicit.

02

Material preparation

Panels, metal sections and components are prepared for fabrication.

03

Machining & forming

Cutting, drilling, milling, bending and welding shape the exhibit structure.

04

Surface finishing

Grinding, cleaning and finishing prepare parts for final assembly.

05

Systems integration

Mechanisms, electronics, displays and controls are resolved as one experience.

06

Assembly

The exhibit is built as a complete physical and interactive system.

07

Testing & review

The team operates the exhibit, checking behaviour, access and repeated use.

08

Protective packing

Packing is prepared around the exhibit before collection and transport.

ON THE WORKSHOP FLOOR

ASSEMBLE, OPERATE, REVIEW

Mechanical structures, controls, displays and interactive components come together in the workshop. The team operates the complete exhibit to review behaviour, access and reliability before packing.
