The New Gullwing (Merc) is coming...



Mercedes-Benz asked us to get people excited about the release of the SLS AMG at the 2009 Frankfurt Auto Show. Jung von Matt/Alster, Hamburg needed to use traditional media in a new and unseen way.


Solution:Gorgeous styling, 571 horsepower, and a top speed of over 300 kph make the SLS AMG a supercar. But its gullwing doors make it an icon. So their agency created a simple announcement poster and placed it into glass-covered billboards, leaving the glass doors open, gullwing style. We worked with JCDecaux to modify the doors to open further. Result: The media truly became the message, and the launch of the SLS AMG became the talk of the town.

Nando’s Lamp-pole



The Espetada Rustica is a delicious meaty grilled boneless chicken from Nando’s. As part of the regional calendar for 2009, it was a major area of focus for Nando’s Oman with a lot of in-restaurant posters that came in from South Africa for adaptations in the local market. Since much of this was mostly inward communication, the agency used a delightful outdoor ambient approach to communicate the sensory ‘big sized feel’ of this exciting dish and drive in traffic.
It simply created a sizzling Espetada Rustica BBQ effect on a lamp post that was exactly in close proximity to the Nando’s outlet in Qurum, Oman-substituting the lamp pole as a natural skewer by adding large chunk of ‘meat’ around it.

Smart: “Shoehorn”



In conjunction with the opening of the 2010 Canadian International Autoshow, smart Canada is educating urban dwellers regarding one of the many benefits of driving a smart fortwo. A head-turning marketing initiative in downtown Toronto has wedged a giant shoehorn behind a smart fortwo, visually illustrating that the less than 3 metre smart fortwo can park almost anywhere.

The display, parked in various high traffic downtown locations, also imparts the message: “Fits into tight places”, and prompts onlookers to visit “thesmart.ca.”

The idea aims to demonstrate that just like your favorite pair of shoes, the smart fortwo can comfortably fit into any lifestyle. The smart fortwo is the most fuel-efficient two-seater in Canada, and it boasts a spacious interior, a 5-star crash safety rating and great agility to dart through traffic while avoiding potholes and other urban hazards. This unique and larger-than-life display playfully conveys that the intelligently designed smart fortwo is the ultimate tool to conquer the city. The ambient initiative will continue throughout the duration of the 2010 Canadian International Autoshow.

The 80 photos that got the most votes were eventually used as outdoor posters. In this way, the Dutch people themselves determined what the new “Just call us” campaign looked like.

Recently, world leaders meet in the Copenhagen Summit to discuss Climate Change. The WWF launched an initiative called Vote Earth!, an online ballot to put pressure on the world leaders and influence them into an agreement. Their objective was to mobilize people in Portugal for the vote.
