Striking encounters

Date: Spring 2016

Description: For environmental class, we had to create an exhibition based on a topic we are passionate about, which in this case is video games. Striking Encounters is an exhibition based off of the video game series, “Counter-Strike.” Each room represents the different aspects of Counter-Strike, such as, the evolution of first person shooter, the in-game experience, and the gaming community.  

The Evolution:

  • Timeline of Counter Strike

  • Description of the game and creator

  • Awards

The In-Game Experience:

  • Display of weapons and outfits from the Counter Terrorist and Terrorist teams.

  • Virtual reality experience of the game.

  • Info on the maps

  • Mannequins of each character from each team.

The Community Room:

  • 5 v 5 Competition Arena

  • Build Your Own Skin

  • Upcoming events

  • Top game plays / Twitch streams

Dimensions: Foam board is 36 x 24 inch & the proposal book is 11 x 17 in.

The overall project consisted of a proposal design book, with information on the overall exhibit as well as dimensions of each room, and a foam board mock-up of the whole exhibit. 

Proposal Book photos were taken by Brian Colmenares
