MicrosoftOriginal Build

To celebrate Microsoft’s 50th anniversary, The Original Build brought a retro-themed developer experience to life at their Build conference. I designed the interface for the vintage Altair-style computers powered by modern tools like Copilot and Azure. The activation blended 1970s nostalgia with interactive coding challenges, honoring Microsoft’s roots and the spirit of self-taught devs.
