The brief for The Arcade was to design and build an interactive installation to provoke movement in the body. The installation utilized adapted versions of popular games: Giant Connect4, Slingshot Cornhole, and the Wheel of Dares to fulfill this brief. Nominated by my cohort of 16, I oversaw all strategic planning, team coordination, and the one-week build.
The process included pitching to the owners of the space: the SVA Products of Design administration, acquiring build and printed materials, organizing teams for a successful build, coordinating check-ins, and pivoting when problems arose.
Brand identity and installation included colors, illustrated icons, and printed collateral that reflected the familiar aesthetic of arcades, board games, and carnivals.
