Right now, there are thousands of children working and selling products in different cities of Ecuador.

It´s common for these kids to be forced to sell chocolates, lollipops, gum, and candy; sweets that were originally created for their enjoyment.

Child labor is a nightmare from which many times they will never be able to get out, so inspired by three popular sweets, we developed three characters taken from a nightmare.

Monsters that shouldn’t exist but were brought to life by the horrendousness of child labor.

Nordax Bank: Smoothie shopping

With online shopping pivoting during the pandemic, and fintech companies and banks creating more smooth ways for consumers to shop easier online, the Swedish bank Nordax has created a tool to urge people to buy less online – and to make smoothies instead.

Nordax Bank, a Swedish niche bank that offers loans for people who don’t have traditional employment status, is seeing the down side of the new possibilities with online shopping. With more and more credit companies offering the possibility to split payments on any kind of purchase, a lot of Swedes find themselves in a hard to get out of-debt. The Swedish Enforcement Authority, the government agency that handles debts, showed in a recent statement that the majority of people in Sweden under 30 years old with debt with the Enforcement Authority have gained the debt from online shopping with split payments. And that’s where Nordax’s new plugin comes into play.

The tool is a Google Chrome plugin called Smoothie Shopping that pops up at check out, urging you to take a moment and instead make a smoothie, a little break to contemplate if you really want to press “buy”.

TBS Print Ad - The trash shorts

To help fight against coastal pollution, iconic sportswear brand TBS designed swim shorts out of recycled plastic bottles. And what better way to speak about it than by recycling its print ad campaign released 24 years ago? Bottles, plastic bags, bottle caps, cigarette butts and all kinds of rubbish, floating sadly at the surface of the water and scattered across our beaches.

24 years ago, TBS revealed the terrible impact of coastal pollution. Sadly, 24 years later, nothing has changed: our beaches and seashores are still littered with all kinds of trash, if not more
so. Determined to save them, TBS and its ad agency Brand Station have launched a one-of-a-kind rescue operation: collect the trash on our beaches and transform it into swim shorts.

100% eco-friendly swim shorts, made out of plastic bottles, to fight against coastal pollution – with style – and help give their beauty and cleanliness back to the Mediterranean beaches.

Twitter: Scott Parker x The Streets

Twitter Film Ad - Scott Parker x The Streets

Twitter celebrated the end of the football season by creating a buzz online around a meme football Twitter loves, and lavishing attention on it in the way that only Twitter could. We took the meme of the season – manager Scott Parker’s post-match interviews set to music by The Streets – and created the most amped-up mashup ever by painstakingly CGI-ing Scott Parker into The Streets original music video, with band merch to match.

Lay's: Lay’s opens a non-existent restaurant on UberEats

Lay's Integrated Ad - Lay’s opens a non-existent restaurant on UberEats

For those who have not yet managed to get their hands on the chip bags anywhere else, the appropriately named Lay’s Iconic Restaurant offers a solution. The promotion was developed in collaboration with advertising agency Fitzroy Amsterdam, at their office.

If you live in Amsterdam, you could order the different kinds of crisps on Uber Eats on Thursday June the 3 and Friday the 4th between 3 and 9 p.m.. The bags were delivered in the well-known and popular packaging of the original dishes. Like the KFC bucket, the Subway wrapper or the Pizza Hut pizza box. No need to get a bowl, you can eat it the restaurant way. After 2 days everything was sold out. We had a lot of happy faces and even UberEats could enjoy the wittiness. We even became the first non-existent restaurant with a 5-star rating.
