So one day I was walking around the outskirts of the vintage digital game world “which I sometimes do”, I came across an old scenario that has been embedded in my childhood memory…The colorful steel beams of Donkey Kong and I started to wonder, what happens to all those video game props when games become old….do they get stored away in a digital world or do they fade away with time? The famous steel beams from Donkey Kong have served their time but I could not pass by such an ingenious design…. So as a designer I thought how can I encourage Mario to give a second life to this iconic relic. I’m sure with the popularity of Mario, he is not a simple plumber anymore and he wouldn’t want some rusty beat-up steel beams at his place but he would probably need some kind of sweet-looking wall to put his awards and trophies on.
So here is a Donkey Kong wall, strong, good-looking but still has its character. The wall is made out of individual sections; each section is made out of extruded aluminum, acrylic pixels, and toughened glass tops. The special mounts themselves are made out of steel and can support up to 60lbs
So Mario….sit your Princesses on that nice-looking couch you have and enjoy the show!
