Welcome Kiosk (2018)

This is a welcome experience designed for visitors of the Harvard Student Center utilizing a 42” touch screen kiosk in the lobby, which displays upcoming events, news headlines, and next week’s weather forecast.

My design starts from the observation that large screen with higher resolution asks for more details to avoid emptiness and engage users. It is a great display medium for photos or rich CG images, instead of flat or over-simplistic material designs.

Hence I propose that pictures of Harvard students  (the news blower, the event carrier, and the weather forecaster) be taken at various corners of the campus and serve as the canvas, which itself communicates the brand message of Harvard to its visitors in a new way. Digital content will merge with the canvas and transit between each other through creative motion design.
