PROJECT DESCRIPTION
Nashville-based Asurion fixes tech devices. The company helps people every day, all over the world, with their technology. With the construction of their new Nashville Global HQ, Asurion wanted to dramatically increase the company’s visibility and bring its local teams together under one roof. Asurion’s story is tied to Nashville, and their local roots are expressed throughout the building. They wanted to share their unique story as a point of pride, to inspire their workforce. From massive wall illustrations - the series of 29 original illustrations are featured in work spaces across six levels of the complex - to 3d printed floor numbers showcasing intricate circuit boards, broken cell phone screens, international power plugs, and the myriad tools that their technicians use - we designed every installation and graphic in this new workspace to express a story about helping people: locally, nationally, and all around the world.
