Doom & Dickson: God

Posted by Sander Janssen on September 2, 2010 No comments yet

The office building of the Dutch advertising agency Doom & Dickson is getting renovated, during these works a strange message was sent into the world. Funny thing is the fact that Jack Doom and Bill Dickson never existed; they are made up personalities. These supposedly founders of the advertising agency even have their own book and website. Fantastic branding we say.

Mars: Messages from mars

Posted by Sander Janssen on July 28, 2010 1 comment

“Messages from Mars”, is a Gold Design Lion winner at Cannes International Advertising Festival. The famous label was removed from the candy bar, only leaving it black. They provided consumers with the complete alphabet in the Mars font. The bar became an interactive object that people could use to pass a message. You can see some examples, but the text on these bars is in Dutch though.

Dutch Football Federation: T-shirt

Posted by Sander Janssen on July 10, 2010 1 comment

OK this has been done several times, but because the world cup of soccer is ending tomorrow we decided to post this anyway. It’s a perfect timing to do a campaign like this, especially in Holland where the entire country is turning orange.
This campaign is created by a student, the only question we are asking ourselves: did the professors never see this or the Burger King T-shirts ?

Heineken is known for its funny commercials.
This one may be an old one, but it is nevertheless one of their best. Not too complicated, just simple and two cheerful Dutch rastafari’s..

When you marry do not forget to write a romantic, emotional and moving speech for you future wife. Make her heart melt..
