THE SPARK: VINTAGE BIRDCAGE ELEVATORS
My mind immediately went to the beautiful original Otis elevators of the past with their delicate and elaborate yet functional metalwork. I illustrated a variety of patterns based on this decoration style.
MOOD BOARDS:
Mood boards presented to the client honored this heritage of Elisha Otis' original invention while continuing to reinvent Otis's vision of the future.
INITIAL AD CONCEPTS:
My first attempts at figuring out how the vintage inspired patterns could play with the Otis logo, bold headlines, copy and picturesque views of some of the company's international crowning achievements.
