Stepping into the future.
Yahoo!’s new digital portal is the pinnacle of digital immersion. Blitz created an atmosphere of futuristic imagery that engages both the internal and external community.
Yahoo! (under the umbrella of Verizon Media) commissioned Blitz to create this best-in-class space.This technological oasis encompasses The Paseo and Yodel Square in inspirational energy. Designed to host events and showcase the brand’s innovative accomplishments, the portal evokes curiosity and exploration in its visitors, urging them to interact with their environment. It was imperative to our client that the digital portal be an immersive and future-forward experience that infused positive energy into the space. Blitz created this enticing digital environment using 3D projection mapping technology and curved LED surfaces. Adhering to Feng Shui principles, Blitz was able to make the portal an authentic reflection of global influences.
Under the umbrella of Yahoo lies 11 other brands whose content was integrated seamlessly into the design of the space. At the center of the new campus, branding graphics complement the digital portal while stunning content is displayed. The variety of programmed spaces that surround the promenade provides an explorative escape for visitors and employees alike. The campus’s new portal piques interest while encouraging users to immerse themselves in the experience and embrace the future.
