Cold Call

Our goal was to create a space that could break through the “Seattle freeze” and make it easier for people to connect in a call and response set up.

We met to develop the concept, then moved into prototyping—sourcing phones, printers, and materials, and figuring out how to get each phone to call another while printing prompts for participants to answer. From there, we refined the interaction with 3D-printed components and technical adjustments.

The final installation gave people a low-pressure way to ask and answer more personal questions, creating real moments of connection between strangers.

Outside of ideation & art direction I contributed to the ideation process and designed the six seals featured on each A-frame phone stand.
