Huge Office Experience

Project Overview
Huge Inc. has offices around the world – with it's headquarters being in Brooklyn. This project details efforts to bring cohesion to the many disparate resources and projects occurring through the network. During my tenure (2016-2018)

I initiated and helped build a robust system that linked resources and work across offices.

Content Architecture
The goal of all three channels working together was greatercoherence. Between TV, TABS and SIDES, employees could meet a new hire, find an event and upload a piece of artwork for the entire company to enjoy – all with ease. TV exists all around the office – one main screen and several secondary that show off various programming blocks. Laptop browsers open directly to TABS, which shows that day's events calendar – plus handy links to resources otherwise hidden across dozens of emails and pdfs. PDFS! SIDES is a platform for sharing projects or hobby groups happening around Huge.

Content Shoots
We arranged short video shoots  every two weeks and gave the opportunity for new employees to introduce themselves – and for the office to get to know them  ☺️
Satellite Screens
Complementary displays optionally ran content related to the main screen such as attribution or additional project information.
Text to Screen
One Block of functionality I wrote on a whim was the ability to text (MMS) any image to replace whatever was on there at the time. It became a hit and people even started using it for presentations instead of connecting their laptop. Twilio fees aside, this was a fun experiment.
Technical Bits
Huge TV Blocks were driven by self-contained HTML directories that held all needed content and functionality. The block shown here called to an internal social feed API.

Huge Tabs.

At Your Fingertips
Huge Tabs was a homepage for everything taking place in the office. Backgrounds were driven dynamically by employee uploads through the plus [+] button. All the resources on the left are services scattered across bookmarks, emails and otherwise. I conceived, designed and developed this portion alone.

Let's build something.
