Sloomoo DIY Bar


Sloomoo Institute is an interactive slime experience that originated in New York City, combining sensory play with immersive design. As part of their national expansion, we partnered with their team to develop a fully custom DIY slime bar—an engaging, self-serve installation where guests create personalized slime by combining base slimes with colors, scents, and decorative charms.

Our work began with a deep research phase, uncovering key opportunities to enhance both the guest journey and behind-the-scenes staff operations. These insights directly informed our design strategy.

The resulting system features a suite of bespoke dispensing machines—each engineered to accurately deliver powdered pigments and liquid fragrances via intuitive, token-activated mechanisms. Built for durability and ease of maintenance, the machines are constructed from anodized aluminum, precision-bent sheet metal, and 3D printed parts for serviceable components. The dispensing "mouth" is an injection-molded, chemical-resistant plastic element optimized for frequent cleaning and chemical resistance.

We conducted multiple rounds of hands-on prototyping and real-world testing within Sloomoo's SoHo flagship to ensure performance and reliability. The final system is now in production and being deployed across Sloomoo’s expanding network of U.S. locations.
