'Interactive' Outdoor in Amsterdam

Artis babyboom from Dawn Amsterdam on Vimeo.

Dawn in Amsterdam have done this really sweet outdoor campaign for Artis - the Zoo in Amsterdam.
The posters are made up of stickers that can be removed like kids sticker books and placed all over the city. Watch the film.
It's a great display of how you can still have interactivity in 'traditional' media.

I saw this on Advertblog.

Natwest floor stickers at Marylebone Station

I noticed these Natwest floor stickers at Marylebone station this morning. I am usually on my scooter so I don't see stuff like this much.
It really grabbed my attention. It is often the most simple ideas that are most effective.
I was changing song on my iPhone and one of the stickers caight my eye and first glance I thought it was a real wallet, I then looked around to see all the other wallets/purses and cards on the floor and then the information block.
Good work whoever did it.

Transparent Solar Panels

I am working on a project for one of my clients at the moment and I came across this amazing product - Transparent solar panels, which are really no thicker than putting a piece of paper through one of those old laminating machines, AND it produces 20% more electricity than standard solar panels!

Obviously I cannot talk about the project but this product is very cool, the company is called Konarka, their European sales are based in Germany.

Tree House for Yellow in New Zealand

This a film about the Yellow New Zealand (Yellow Pages) campaign by COLENSO BBDO Auckland, NEW ZEALAND, From back in 2009. Someone told me about it today so I did a youtube search.

Special Build from the late 90's

I saw this special build for Absolut in New York back in 1998. Absolute New York.
I can't believe I found a picture of it online the other day.

the dreaded stairs

Great film not sure who did it, but this staircase in Odenplan, stockholm was re-built by engineers to see if they could get people to take stairs than use the escalator.

At first hardly anyone took the stairs, almost 97% of the people took the escalator.

Now they have reversed the percentages, 66% more people take the stairs than take the escalator.

Volkswagen initiative. clever buggers.
