Clash of the Algorithms
Art Direction & Design
Evolv AI is a UX optimization platform that empowers online retailers to fine-tune customer journeys and max ROI. Evolv needed an end-to-end campaign for Shoptalk 2024 - the US’s largest annual trade show for changemakers in retail. The objective was to design a booth with serious stopping power inside a relatively small footprint, filled with swag that people would actually want.
Inspired by the classic Rock’em Sock’em Robots game, we put the customer focused Evolv AI algorithm head-to-head with other well known algorithms focused on their own revenue. The team landed on a modernized 1950’s toy aesthetic, rich with humor and killer swag.
