The Barclays Singapore Open is played on one of the toughest courses in Asia. We were asked to create awareness for this event. So we highlighted the immense skill required to be a professional golfer by comparing it to other sports. Based on this idea, we imagine if we apply all these natural factors into other sports, say soccer, how would it be? It would be amazingly difficult to play. For this campaign we developed print and poster ads, bus advertisements and impossible but real pool tables, featuring slopes, trees and bunkers. We placed them inside sports bars around Singapore. Despite rain and indement weather on two of the days, the tournament still managed to draw a crowd of over 23.000 spectators.

“Shower head with adjustable spray settings. Grohe. Enjoy water.”
GROHE Deutschland is the leading provider of premium bath faucets and showers, worldwide. As such the companies slogan is: Enjoy water. Every year Franfurt is home to the ISH, the world’s leading trade fair The Bathroom Experience. So for the launch of the GROHE giant shower head series, which lets you enjoy multiple spray settings while showering, we were asked to bring the companies slogan alive in an unexpected way while communicating the huge size of the shower heads and the sensation of multiple spray settings. Located in the center of Frankfurt city square Walther-von-Cronber-Platz is the biggest fountain in Germany, surounded by bars, restaurants, a huge shopping and office building and a hotel building with 24 floors. We create a giant size 3D floor graphic around the fountain to transform it into a gigantic shower head. Better, world’s biggest shower head with adjustable spray settings!

In 2011, Telecom Telefonica became Colombia’s National Soccer teamâs Official Sponsor. But by that time, Colombians had stopped believing in their team. Young & Rubicam, Bogota had to find a message of optimism to people know that Telefonica stood behind the team 100%.
We made an open call to every woman in Colombia named Gloria. And for an entire day, the âgloryâ was theirs. They showed their love and admiration for Colombias soccer players, and the whole country came together to form a unified symbol to support their national team.

As part of the Nokia Lumia campaign in Poland, Nokia planned an event together with the Cinema City network. The event, to take place in 8 cities during the month of February , was to surprise movie goes with the amazing everyday — often we go to the movies as part of our free time during weekends. For certain film sessions i.e. selected films and time of the day, we hid special coupons under the seats in the cinema halls. As the commercial break was coming to an end — our Nokia Lumia product spot always being the last commercial to be aired — viewers were shown a 15 second spot with a well-known Polish celebrity that urged them to search for the hidden coupons. As soon as the spot ended viewers were encouraged to start looking for the copouns with the lucky ones getting the chance to win a Lumia 800 device. We recorded the event in each of the 8 cities with 64 movies and 64 lucky Nokia Lumia 800 winners.

World Design Capital 2012 Helsinki wanted to make those not naturally interested in design aware that design is anything that makes things work better, that design is all around us every day, that design affects us all and that you can have an effect on it by sharing ideas on how to make things work better with the World Design Capital mobile application. At the core of the marketing communication is a movable café with design (tables, chairs, music and spoken service) anybody can remotely control on the web in real-time. All of the different elements of the campaign (PR, tv, print, outdoor and banners) directed people to the café while also communicating the chosen messages.

In early 2012, ice on the Amsterdam canals began breaking up and melting. This presented us with a unique opportunity to raise awareness on the issue of climate change in a way that hadn’t been done before. In prime spots around the city, QR codes were transferred onto the ice which had a link to the WWF Netherlands site (http://www.wnf.nl/nl/wat_wnf_doet/thema_s/klimaat/) and instantly put the issue of climate change in people’s hands. And once the ice started to melt, it was a natural ‘demonstration’ of this problem. There was no media spend, and there are no laws against printing on ice.

Brief: Everyone wants a way to make the car safer. Place alarms, films, etc. But these methods, however to help prevent, not prevent vehicle theft. The best way to minimize damage is to have insurance. Solution: We created a “pamphlet” that simulates a mad dog in the car window, as if taking care of the car. On the back is the following text: “Is there a better way to take care of your car. Insure it. ”
