Twenty agencies published twenty visions of digital advertising. We ranked them online, then literally burned the lowest-scoring ones on film. ‘Sparking the conversation’, interpreted with unnecessary enthusiasm.

A colour-changing coffee machine needed to appeal to French women. We turned differences in colour perception into a campaign idea that put women firmly in charge of choosing the right shade.
