Problem
Sales down in in-store shopping for wireless and prepaid sections. 
We were asked to reimagine the in-store shopping experience for Wireless and Prepaid in Best Buy as a whole, while re-imagining what the in-person shopping experience for Mint Mobile could be.

Solution

Leverage AI and smart technology to connect the digital shopping experience to the in-store shopping experience, while presenting the content in a non-biased, user-friendly and universally accessable way: a vending machine. Buy a phone, choose a provider, select a plan, all in one place, while taking your time and not relying on in-store employees. Digital touch screen toggles the physical shelves left and right. 
Digital Best Buy avatars leverging AI help guide shoppers through their in-store experience, minimizing overhead of Best Buy employee training.

Break the Grid, Add visual interest. Take the visual ecosystem of Ultra Mobile, complete with bold type and curved graphic lines, and reinterpret it. reimagine it. More importantly, solve the problem that the monotony of day-to-day emails bring: customers become used to seeing one template, one design, and so the message doesn't come through. My objective was to break this monotany, but using the assets already existing within the visual lexicon of Ultra Mobile. i wanted to Break through the clutter. Using the curved lines prevalent throughout the graphic landscape of Ultra Mobile, my objective was to take a macro look at those curves, and zoom out, imagining them as part of a larger dimensional ribbon, assuming the whole was greater than the parts. In this case, the curvature was taken into the 3D world, where the curves start to fold and appear as a ribbon cascading down the email, increasing visual interest.
