Jellio World Selfie Funhouse Coming Soon To Palisades Center

WEST NYACK, NY — Bored with basic selfies?

Your chance to branch out will come soon — Jellio World...the Ultimate Selfie Funhouse is about to open at Palisades Center with the region's first interactive photography studio, specializing in photo and video opportunities inspired by childhood memories and imagination and perfect for social media applications.

"It's a collection of interactive environments inspired by childhood memories and imagination," said Eric Winston and Dawid Bociek, Co-Owners of Jellio World. "We combine art and creativity with universal childhood experiences to create a playful and nostalgic setting for all ages."

The designers, owners and managers of Brooklyn-based Jellio, which makes unique home furnishings inspired by childhood, were approached by Pyramid Management Group, which owns and operates the Palisades Center.

"People had been asking for years when we were going to open a shop," Mario Marsicano, founder of Jellio and acting manager of Jellio World, told Patch. "When people see our furniture, the first thing they do is sit on it and take a selfie. We had heard about the 'selfie museum' concept, and decided this was a new direction to take the company."

The Jellio World funhouse will have more than 20 unique rooms and walls, a collection of interactive environments inspired by childhood memories and imagination that will work for selfie photography or video.

Think big: how about you fight off a great white shark?

Or ride a giant rubber ducky?

Jellio World will also be available for private events, from birthday and school parties to private photography sessions and even corporate team-building events.

"It’s an honor Jellio World chose Palisades Center to launch their first selfie studio," said Darrin Houseman, General Manager of Palisades Center. "This retail trend has spread worldwide and now Palisades Center’s guests will have the opportunity to participate in this new entertainment experience."

For the next two weekends, staff will be out in front of the still-barricaded storefront on Level 3, offering discounts accompanied by a 4-foot tall tie-dye gummy bear so you can get a few selfies for practice before the funhouse opens next month.
