TIAA Enterprise

THE ASK
TIAA brand was facing a transformation amid an office redesign that had to stay the course and identity work was needed throughout reception spaces.

THE SOLUTION
To highlight the inspiring stories of where TIAA came from and where they’re going, TIAA commissioned three murals immortalizing their proud legacy of progress and impact.

MY ROLE
Research, concept, sketch, and present original design. Select artists through a formal RFP considering cost, location, style, and artist values. Assist with project execution—art direction and various rights managed challenges.

CREATIVE PROCESS

Phase 1: Visually show progress and impact by intersecting geometric views, persons and landscapes

Phase 2: Personalize using TIAA history archives

Phase 3: Final artist renditions (Layqa Nuna Yawar, Katie Yamasaki, Vincent Ballentine)

SIGNAGE EFFORTS
