Turkey is on the brink of serious water shortage, and the brand has launched a huge campaign calling everyone to start saving for future generations. One of the most evident signs of this shortage is the water levels in the lakes, where water levels have seriously dropped. So we have studied the topography of 5 lakes (Seyfe, Suğla, Ilgın, Karataş and Burdur Lakes) and turned their shapes into glasses, each glass representing a lake. The amount of water they hold is also the percentage of the water remaining in those lakes. So, if there’s only 64% of water left in Burdur lake, the glass can also hold that percentage of water. The glasses were first launched on the 22nd March, World Water Day, which also happens to be the date of the biggest national economic forum; Uludağ Economical Forum. All the glasses at the event were swapped with our glasses. Here we reached 2.200 people the major opinion leaders of the country: Members of the government, top academicians, company CEO’s and all the news channels. We hacked the event. As they tried to drink water out of a shallow glass, they could see our website. Direct advertisement created by Havas, Turkey for Finish, within the category: House, Garden.

Imagine Amadeus Mozart asking you to come up with the most creative way to tell his story to the people. What would you do? We created the world’s first playable and listenable font for Peter Shaffer’s famous play “Amadeus” to the Turkish audience. We put this font at the heart of our communication campaign to introduce Peter Shaffer’s famous play “Amadeus” to the Turkish audience. First, we created staff and put the Amadeus line in the middle of the four lines used as a guide to design the font. Then, we placed letters instead of notes. We designed 14 different numbers and letters of the alphabet that match the notes and octaves on the staff. We created a font family of 574 characters for the alphabet consisting of 32 letters and 9 numbers. Putting the Amadeus font at the center of our campaign, our messages and headlines uniquely merged with Mozart’s music. While people read each word, they were also able to listen to the matched note. Even the lost letters that Amadeus wrote 250 years ago turned into a unique piece with his notes. A pianist played Amadeus’s letters.

This 22 March, for World Water Day, we wanted to try a little social experiment with Standart Pompa. For this special experiment, we designed a custom fountain and took it to the Bağdat Street. We turned on the fountain, let it run and started to wait. Every second the fountain was running, we had a dry tree visual on the screen and when the fountain turned off, the tree transformed into a green one. The sensitivity of people who responded to the water waste was hopeful. Even though the weather was cold, 30% of the participants got their hands out of their pockets and turned off the fountain. Apart from giving special gifts to Water Friends, we announced them as heroes with presenting a cape and flowers. Most of the people who stood by this act, said it wasn't even necessary and stated that it was their duty. We put our video on internet, hoping that people who watch this video would rethink about wasting water and become more sensitive. The fountain was designed to recirculate the water and had a refinement system, so not a single drop of water was wasted.

We address the feelings of those who feel like Star Wars! Samsung Turkey needed new ideas on the concept and communication processes of the special bundle, including Galaxy Note 8, Gear S3, exclusive figures and all other products, which was tailor-made for “Star Wars: The Last Jedi” movie. We chose the story of a father and daughter, both Star Wars fans, to meet this need of Samsung. We undertook all launching procedures from the package design and TVC to digital media trailers. In our trailer, we see the story of a girl, who starts to hear sounds from the Star Wars world and go beyond the limits of her imagination, and discovers the real force while trying to figure out where the sound really comes from.

Gender-based violence is one of the biggest issues in Turkey for years. According to research, 440 women were killed in 2018, and one out of every 5 women remains a victim of domestic violence. However, only a specific group of NGOs who work against femicide raise their voices for this tragic reality. This year, on 8th of March - International Women's Day, Turkish Alzheimer Association and TBWA Istanbul, collaborated for a disruptive campaign on violence against women and attracted a great deal of attention to the problem. In the one-minute long internet film, real Alzheimer patients are interviewed and they make a call for everyone to remember the victims of femicide.

What would make you smile in a life where you wake up exactly at the same time, drive through the same roads, arrive at the same place and do the same things every day over and over again? A good sleep? Not enough. The morning coffee? To some extent. The company car? How so? Like this. Your alarm goes off. You wake up. It’s still dark outside. You have to go to work. You get up from bed. You look out from the window and ta-da! There it is. The company car. It’s waiting for you, “let’s roll together!” it says. At that moment, “El Bimbo” starts to play in your head. The campaign for the fleet leasing company, Hedef Filo consists of four TVCs. It shows us the misery of waking up early and going to work, the stress of a job interview, the tiredness from working all day, and the tension that arises from being stranded on the road while going to a very important meeting. And in these stressful moments, seeing the company car on a platform revolving in all its beauty with “El Bimbo” playing in the head, it lightens the mood.

Growing up, we listened to many fairy tales. Then, as adults, we told those tales to our own kids. And without realizing, we taught them unequal gender roles by doing so. Snow White was given an apple by a witch and waited helplessly for a prince’s kiss to save her. Cinderella suffered for a long long time and the only way out was a prince’s affection. Red Riding Hood was naive enough to believe the wolf and ended up being eaten. Can’t we have different tales? Maybe “fair” tales? Can there be princesses with fierce courage and wits to match and princes who have golden hearts? Do stepmoms always have to be wicked? Do princesses have to wait for the princes for their salvation? Is bringing salvation the only duty of princes? If we change gender roles in fairy tales, the unequal roles in society will change as well. We believe in an equal future and thus present Fair Tales. Fair Tales from Odeabank. Let the kids wake up to a fair future. Integrated advertisement created by BBDO, Turkey for Odeabank, within the category: Finance.

Architecture and (Media) Design are art forms that exist independently from one another. Over the last few years they have been growing together. They are entering into symbiotic dependencies and stimulations. Against the background of the information technologies, architecture has gained a new reality. No longer are objects or processes the constituting elements of a building. Now they are described as technical networks of communicating nodes, which balance themselves in contrived patterns. "Augmented Structures v1.1 : Acoustic Formations/Istiklal Street" is an augmented structure, an installation by Refik Anadol and Alper Derinboğaz which is created through the use of innovative parametric architecture and audiovisual techniques. The projects deals with a new mediated space: How to translate the logic of media into architecture? In this first experiment field recordings of Istiklal Street will be transformed in to parametric architectural structure. The recordings were made by Kerim Karaoglu who also used these recordings to create an electro-acoustical composition. The project seeks interactions between space, sound, visual and light. A similar connection between architecture and media has been experienced in Philips Pavilion of Le Courbusier in 1958. Beyond being an artwork this installation is an urban experience. The scale of surface, 2000sqm, and the dominance of the location will definitely take place in collective memory of İstiklal Street visitors. There will be an exhibition opening on 20th of September at 19:30 in relation to this façade installation which showcases experiments of architecture- sound - visual correlations of Refik Anadol and Alper Derinbogaz. During the night visual performance will be projected on the structure which will be accompanied with a generatively designed contemporary aesthetic visuals consisting of input data from the recordings and their transformed versions synchronized to the movement of graphics re-shaping and transforming the structure on which they are projected. The structure in turn influences and transforms the projections as well. Architect: C.Alper Derinbogaz Ambient advertisement created by We Dream, Turkey for Yapı Kredi, within the category: Finance.
