Designing Outside the Box: The Triangular Grid System
The imagination of many haunted house designers is limited by standard graph paper and the 4-foot width of a sheet of plywood. But what if there was another way...
Imagine a haunt layout that is unpredictable, even confusing to the patron. A faster and more economical way to build a panel, with no scrap, and a connection system that is quicker to install or reconfigure.
I give you… the Triangular Grid System. In this high-octane, thought-provoking session, industry Hauntrepreneurs.com chief designer, Leonard Pickel challenges conventional wisdom regarding haunted house wall panel construction, attachment methods, wall bracing and pathway layout. Developed and perfected over the past 50 years, the Triangular Grid System is not just a layout grid; it is a comprehensive wall panel system that flips everything you know about haunt construction on its head. Faster to build, quicker to install and set up, and even increases the length of the patron pathway for the same available space, yet when disassembled, it fits in half the storage space of typical square grid wall panels.
Prepare to have your mind blown, as everything you thought you knew about building a haunted house is about to be flipped on its head in this “thinking outside of the box” session by the legendary haunt designer, Leonard Pickel.
