MICROSOFT’S EXECUTIVE BRIEFING CENTER

Designing an interactive digital experience & refresh

After the remodel of its Executive Briefing Center in Redmond, which included installing a wood-veneered, Kinect-enabled LED wall in the building’s lobby, Microsoft hired PBJS to design the interactive piece. The wall’s purpose was simple: greet international guests of the EBC—busy, often jet-lagged, multitasking executives—with a delightful experience that sets the tone for a very special visit.

Along with the sweeping 50ft welcome experience, we helped to design the interactivity of a number of way-finding and topic-specific screens around the building.
