Copy used as graphic elements

Background Writing about yourself is the hardest task of all. Even the slickest writers find it tough to describe themselves objectively. The team at The Glass Page was no exception.

Glass Page staff organise global sales conferences for clients like Avon Cosmetics and Guinness – and produce the accompanying literature – so they know what works. Their brochure copy didn't. So they did what any right-thinking organisation would do: they summoned the Text Wizard.

 
Glass Page corporate brochure
I reclassified and retitled most pages. Much of the text appeared as graphical elements – which doesn't show up too well here.

INSPIRATIONAL CONFERENCE ENVIRONMENTS DIAGEO

OBJECTIVE: Create four challenging and inspiring environments within which 150 hand-picked global management executives could plan the company's future.
TASK: Design, build, style, and manage the four unique environments during a three-day conference in Dublin. Each environment to capture a different aspect of the hospitality industry in a way that would contribute to the conference discussions.
environment 1: Futuristic bar with purpose-built furniture and lighting within the Guinness Storehouse. A mood-setting backdrop to the first evening's entertainment.
environment 2: Club Diageo, built in the style of a private members' club to reflect Guinness UDV brand values.
environment 3: A conversion (in just 90 minutes) of Club Diageo into the distinctly different Club Baileys for an evening drinks reception.
environment 4: A unique brand showcase: a revolving circular bar with the style to match the conference gala dinner.
