Escape the Office (Design Direction //  Taylor Baybutt - Conception - ACD)
For the 2017 CES show, American Express wanted an activation that would engage the mindset of the audience while not trying to be too tech focused. Because American Express business tools help you work more efficiently and productively, we create the Escape the Office activation. This series will live throughout 2017 at various other trade shows. 

VP+ Summit (Design Direction + Conception)
The American Express VP+ Summit hosted 230 VP's from around the world in an effort for everyone to "Change the World at Work" through leadership and innovation.

To show today's leaders how American Express has evolved through 166 years of innovation, I created a physical and modular timeline showcasing breakthrough moments in American Express history. Because American Express started off as a shipping company, the entire experience was made out of boxes filled with valuable information and easter eggs about the brand.
