The mobile phone, the thing people rely on the most to keep in touch with their families, friends and the news about what is going on in the world, can also be the worst source of contagion. Unbeknownst, we unlock our phone around 80 times every day and touch the screen 2,617 times, according to a study. That’s 80 – well, maybe 2,617 – extra chances of catching COVID-19. To raise awareness about this issue and help shape and change people’s everyday behaviours, we’ve created a series of temporary wallpapers called #AntiCovid19Screensaver. Now every time you touch the screen, the problem is literally highlighted, working as a reminder to wash your hands and disinfect your phone screen. Because washing your hands and then handling your full-of-germs phone makes washing your hands in the first place pointless. The idea began as a peer-to-peer invitation on Instagram. Using stories, we invited people to try this experiment. By simply taking a screenshot, everyone could grab the #AntiCovid19Screensaver and set it as a wallpaper reminder on their own devices. The only goal is for people to use it and spread the #AntiCOVID19Screensaver instead of the virus. Project’s website: https://www.anticovid19screensaver.com/

“A cut for a story”: the proposal of La Guarida Barberos to go through quarantine.

Inspired by authors such as William Shakespeare and Giovanni Boccaccio, who conceived their most famous works in the quarantine period, La Guarida Barberos, a renowned Paraguayan barber shop frequented by: musicians, writers and lovers of literature, invites its clients and the general public to respect the slogan #QuedateEnCasa stimulating creativity and in exchange for an original story offers free cuts at the end of this period of isolation.

The idea proposes using free time to reimagine the universe of the barber shop as a place where one will simply cut their hair and transform it into the protagonist of great stories, which stand out for their ingenuity and narrative.

That is why the only condition to participate in the promo is to set the story in a barbershop.

To each person who sends his story, La Guarida will give him a new look when the closure measure is lifted and will be included in the digital publication to be released soon.

ASRA: Better Futura

We created a very successful and creative campaign with an impressive conversion: three out of five people who clicked on an online advertising medium purchased our product. But let’s start at the beginning: ASRA is a ZEWO-certified foundation that gives disadvantaged children in India access to education. We devised a campaign that created a direct link to the purpose of the donation. We developed “Better Futura” based on the “Futura” font. And it doesn’t just look good: it also does good, since all the proceeds go to ASRA.

The campaign was advertised to a very specific target group. People who might need a good font, for example designers, advertisers and artists, were reached via online banners, social media, print ads and posters.
