PayPal wanted us to inspire their design team in early 2014 by showing, on a very high level, a visual idea how a digital wallet could look and work like on an iPhone.
The project itself was very short with 4 weeks from sketch to final movie. We had a small team that basically consisted me and Mathias Lindgren (3D). We had to build the experience with a flower in mind and came up with the name CALYX that means “protective layer around a flower in bud”
