Experience modern living at the Cheetos Hands-Free House at SXSW. Alexa and Amazon tech let you indulge in Cheetos while completing tasks hands-free. If it's hands-free, it's a Cheetos thing.

The Cheetos Hands-Free House offered a tech-enabled experience, allowing guests to enjoy activities without leaving orange smudges. Alexa started movie nights, while palm gestures operated the oven for Cheetos mozzarella sticks. Voice controls enabled music playback in the lounge, and the backyard hosted a Cheetos-themed party with snack-inspired cocktails.

To make the experience accessible to everyone, we created a virtual landing page replicating the Hands-Free House from SXSW. The 360-degree tour enabled users to explore Alexa's features and gain insights into the Cheetos brand through interactive hotspots.
