CHALLENGE:
Celebrate the launch of the new American Express Platinum Card.

IDEA:
On Saturday, April 1 2017, 120 Platinum Card Members were treated to an exclusive performance of Hamilton. They were joined by celebrities, social media influencers and American Express executives. 

This was a modern-day celebration of Hamilton set inside a platinum-themed after party, exclusively for American Express Platinum Card Members.

WE DELIVERED: 
Exclusivity // Member Envy // Brand Presence + Visuals // Large Scale Sculpture // Music Concert

I collaborated with renowned artist, Rich Tu, and created every typographic element within the entire space. Many thanks to Stefan Knecht for live-illustrating typography on the windows (backwards).

Created the first of its kind, "Treenado", made up of 5,000 credit card shaped platinum cards. The sculpture became the centerpiece, reflecting light beautifully across the space.

After the show, AMEX select guests walked across the street to the Diamond Horseshoe to keep the night going at the post-show party.
