The Intercom speech bubble is a vehicle for expression within the intranet at Microsoft Australia. It becomes the voice, the one channel for all internal communication. Speech bubbles of all shapes and sizes give each communication its own character and personality and allow the system to house a diverse suite of messages across multiple business units. The system also offers a fantastic opportunity to open a dialogue with staff, to start a wider conversation and physical forms of the bubble will act as a strong engagement tool.

Each speech bubble was created by hand by Illustrator Jen McEvoy, she spent days preparing around 400 designs….there was anything from twigs to liquorish allsorts!
