#EmbraceYourInnerAlien
Area 42 is a vibrant, galactic-themed sanctuary for anyone who's ever felt alienated. Our inclusive venue hosts stellar events year-round and serves as the mothership of a 21+ Private Membership Association. A PMA membership is required to attend our Elevated Events, ensuring the cosmic hideaway remains a safe and supportive space where everyone can authentically be themselves.
What is
AREA 42?
Features of the lounge include:
- A 12-foot projector screen for movie nights.
- Leather couches, neon lights, and speakers.
- A large blacklight-reactive space mural.
- Tables and chairs for classes or workshops.
- Wood and propane fire pits with a s'mores bar.
- Card games, board games, and yard games.
Area 42 is "out-of-this-world" because it is the place to let go of all your Earthly stressors and just be free. Be weird. Have fun. #EmbraceYourInnerAlien
DEEP IMPACT
ALTHOUGH YOU CAN USE SCROLL ANIMATIONS WITH ANY DESIGN AESTHETIC, I KNEW I HAD TO GO BOLD TO MAKE A LASTING IMPRESSION.
WE LIVE IN AN AGE WHERE ATTENTION SPANS ARE DECREASING SO MY GOAL WAS TO HIT USERS IN THE FACE WITH ASTEROIDS, LITERALLY.
WELL, PERHAPS NOT LITERALLY, BUT YOU GET MY STELLAR DRIFT. THE PROCESS WENT SOMETHING LIKE THIS…
Embrace Your Inner Alien at Area 42!
A CELESTIAL INTERVENTION
I’VE ALWAYS BEEN INTERESTED IN SPACE AND IT WAS WHEN SCROLLING, DAYDREAMING, LOOKING FOR INSPIRATION IT CAME TO ME. I’D COMBINE MY PASSION FOR SPACE WITH SCROLLYTELLING. EACH SCROLL, LIKE A NEW DAY, WOULD PROMISE SOMETHING EXCITING AND BUILD ANTICIPATION.
