Environmental Graphics
The project involved creating environmental graphics for Amazon’s office building Aquila in Bangalore, India. The brief was to create meaningful wall graphics and installations based on the brand principles that Amazon follows. These were provided by the client at the beginning of the project. The process of creating these installations involved working alongside architects and dealing with spaces and materials and making meaning out of them. These installations were to be made coherent following the theme of each floor —Writers, Musicians and Trendsetters floors were in the scope of my project. Few of the completed walls are shown below.
