HOT magnetic billboard

Take the stars home with you

To position HOT as the cable TV network with the best shows and the hottest stars,
BBR Saatchi & Saatchi Tel Aviv created a 140 meter long magnetic billboard,
onto which it attached over 6,000 cut-outs of entertainment celebrities.
The public was invited to peel off the cut-outs, which they did with great enthusiasm:
the entire display was stripped bare within 2 hours of launch, and was consequently restocked several times.

Varun D Jani Fine Jewellery: Seeing Is Believing (Print/Poster, India)

Most newspapers in India have a low screen. Therefore they cannot reproduce the intricate designs of Varuna D Jani’s line of jewellery. The top line research threw an insight that when customers walked into Varuna D Jani’s store and saw the exquisite designs, they more often than not bought the product. The brief was therefore to encourage more walk ins through a series of posters.

Absolut No Label celebrates diversity (with no labels)

Omg! The bottle is nekked. Absolut No label is the famous silhouette bottle we all know and blame our hangover on, but without the label and no logo. It's naked. This is a limited edition bottle that manifests the idea that it's what's inside that counts.

”For the first time we dare to face the world completely naked. We launch a bottle with no label and no logo, to manifest the idea, that no matter what’s on the outside, it’s the inside that really matters. The bottle visually manifests our belief in diversity and our standpoint when it comes to sexual identities. Off course it is also a wonderful piece of delicate and minimalist design, a true collectors item” says Kristina Hagbard, Global PR Manager at The Absolut Company.

The nude bottle is part of a greater inititiative where Absolut wants to challenge labels and prejudice about sexual identities. You remember the rainbow bottle? Once again, Absolut is showing support of the LGBT community, by promoting a diverse world (with no labels).

Medal Paints - Underwear, Gun, Karate Belt - South Africa

As any Art director (and designer) will tell you, color matters. That's exactly what the campaign for Medal paints, created by Lowe Bull Johannesburg, wants you to understand. Instead of going the bland route of showing rooms painted in "whiter than eggshell white" with accents of "whiter white" and the trims in "Whiterthanwhite, look we just have to shift the bloody white we got" they don't show anything you can paint at all. Instead, they change the colors of everyday objects and watch the reactions. Black cat? Bad. Red bra? Good.

My only objection would be with the underwear print ad. Do women in South Africa not wear nude underwear because whatever they are wearing on top is totally sheer and/or lacy?. That's why nude undies were invented - so we don't have to go commando a la Mrs Spears.
