Experiential Activation • Cannes Lions 2025

Pinterest’s promise is that it leads you somewhere you didn’t know you were going. These two activations put that idea in the hands of attendees — one analogue, one digital, both built around the same logic: answer a few questions, discover something unexpected about yourself.

At the Pinterest Patisserie, guests used a dial system I designed to work through a series of personality questions and unlocked a dessert made specifically for them — one of hundreds of possible combinations. Every detail of the space was considered, from the hand-illustrated logo to the buttery yellow palette and pistachio accents.

At Discover Yourself, guests entered a mirrored booth, scanned their palms to reveal their aura color, then refined their style preferences by selecting images and building out a set of style tags. The result was a personalized AI-generated tarot card spanning fashion, travel, and interiors—delivered on an NFC charm they could take with them. I designed the back wall and art directed the spatial environment. The experience was built with Deeplocal and powered by Adobe Firefly.

Part of an activation that earned Pinterest Adweek’s Experiential Brand of the Year.





Pinterest Patisserie

Process
The dial system started as a spatial problem: how do you make a personality quiz feel physical and playful rather than transactional. Early sketches worked through scale, placement and interaction llogic before moving into color and material







Discover Yourself

Process
The back wall needed to hold the experience together visually, a surface that felt immersive without competing with the lighting and animation happening around it. I directed our 3D designer through the structure while refining the art direction through each iteration.
