Projection Mapping
Projection mapping projects content precisely onto physical objects — sculpted terrain, products, stage sets or architecture — so light and imagery follow the real form. MLABART delivers the full chain: 3D modelling of the surface, content production from the same data, and millimetre-level on-site alignment, as in the Starbucks × "Only This Green" terrain-mapped scroll.
What MLABART delivers
- •Physical-form modelling and projection-content production from one 3D dataset
- •Millimetre-level alignment and zone-by-zone colour calibration on site
- •Sculpted terrain / object mapping and immersive room formats
- •Projector engineering: brightness, throw, blending and redundancy planning
Where it fits
- Cultural IP brought to physical life
- Museum and heritage exhibitions
- Product mapping at launches
- Immersive brand rooms

Starbucks · A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains — Projection-Mapped 3D Terrain
For a Starbucks activation themed around “Only This Green,” MLABART turned the Northern Song masterpiece “A Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains” into a sculpted 3D relief terrain, then projection-mapped its blue-green (azurite-malachite) landscape pixel-precise onto the physical model — the flat 900-year-old scroll becomes a luminous, dimensional mountain range. MLABART delivered the 3D terrain, the mapping content and the overall presentation.

FAQ
Projection mapping vs LED screens — how to choose?
Choose mapping when the physical form is the point: real objects, terrain, architecture, texture. Choose LED when you need daylight brightness and pure image quality. Mapping wins on tactility and premium feel in controlled light; LED wins in bright, open venues. Many MLABART projects combine both.
How precise can the alignment be?
Millimetre-level on sculpted objects — light traces ridges and water follows riverbeds in the Starbucks terrain piece. Precision comes from producing content and physical form from the same 3D data, then calibrating zone by zone on site.
What venues suit projection?
Controlled-light environments: exhibition halls, indoor pop-ups, evening outdoor façades. For bright atriums we assess ambient light and either specify higher-lumen projection or recommend LED instead — honestly.
