Welcome to Kawaii Kon

Kawaii Kon is Hawaii's largest anime convention that lasts three days and is hosted annually in the spring since 2005. There are many rooms and activities for attendees, including Video Gaming, Video Rooms, Artist Alley and Dealers Room, etc.

I wanted to create something that quickly showcases the things that Kawaii Kon has to offer. Since the theme changes every year, I decided to capture the theme upcoming for spring 2024, Yokai. I recreated three of the convention's rooms and one bedroom to simulate a possible attendee's day beginning in their home. Then going through some rooms and encouraging others to attend as well.
