First Direct

Microsoft Surface

Microsoft Surface

First Direct needed to create an experience end environment that allowed visitors to engage and interact the FD team, ask questions, gain awareness of FD mortgages and an

understanding of the benefits of offsetting.

The resulting Microsoft Surface application allowed visitors to interact with various sample Grand Design projects. Each project type was housed within a digital card. When the

visitors wanted to see how they could afford to complete a similar project they could flip this card over to play with the offsetting calculator. The calculator itself enabled visitors to

discover the core benefits of offset and demonstrate how much they can reduce their monthly payments or reduce the length of their term and save money.
