Paypal: Art Direction

PayPal: Art Direction

In the fall of 2016, we were asked by PayPal to help design a custom 110” (diagonal) multitouch experience.

After spending a lot of time trying to wrap my mind around how to design for such a large experience, I was excited to work out how a UI could communicate and organize everything the client needed.

Above is a small piece of the UI at 1/2 resolution (seriously, 110" is a huge display). Attached is a 1/2 resolution export of the UI design. The screen shown here is a touch timeline of PayPal's history. On the right is a filter for event type categories (which also acts as a legend for the color coding) and the upper right is reserved for copy and a variety of graphs (more on this later!).

Fun fact: the wireframe background asset was generated in Processing and a direct leftover of the original exploration in code.

All feedback is welcome.
