Ecommerce campaign / Strategy + production

Making product education shoppable.

An independent REI Co-op concept built around one useful idea: help the reader understand the base, mid, and shell system, then connect each layer to an appropriate product category.

Independent portfolio concept. REI Co-op did not commission, review, or approve this work.

The brief

Create a fall email that supports apparel discovery without depending on a limited-time discount, a crowded catalog, or invented product pricing.

The solution

The campaign begins with an outdoor use case, introduces REI's published three-layer framework, and then moves into a centered three-column merchandising grid. Each module has a distinct purpose, concise benefit copy, and a category-level action. On smaller screens, the grid becomes a simple vertical sequence with larger product imagery and touch-friendly spacing.
