Inside Juniper Joe’s

Work in progress

A few seconds away from work, inside a little world.

Diorama started with a simple wish at the desk: a few seconds to rest the eyes, relax the mind and look at something interesting. Naturally, we turned a few seconds off into a whole project.

We imagined beautiful virtual worlds that move and respond, with little moments of fun to discover. A clock, calendar, alarm and notes alongside the scene were part of that vision, adding useful companions for work or study.

Juniper Joe’s is one exploration of that idea. In the current prototype, customers sip coffee and read the paper, a floating robot keeps its doughnut tray level, and a train comes and goes outside the window.

Warm light on the counter, a pause between sips, the gentle movement of a towel. There is plenty to notice, and it is fine to just enjoy the view.

Diorama is in development. This is a look at the work so far; its artwork and features may change.
