Kaizen characters
Set of characters designed for a hackathon project World of Workcraft created in collaboration with James Trott, Andy Davies,Dan Attfield, Naomi Pentrel and Lisa Long. This is a project about gamifying our work at Microsoft, to focus and engage people on the themes, behaviors and activities that really matter. Judges liked it because the team created hack that improves the way we work which eventually contributes to all of our deliverables.
I designed this set of illustration inspired by the concept of kaizen, which led the entire project. Kaizen refers to a work practice of continuos improvement and evolution. The characters where developed for a set of stickers that are given to the employees as badges of honor when completing a task.
The project was the Showcase Winner at the //oneweek Microsoft hackathon in London.
