Yes. Those are leather sofas in the wild, creating an impression that the sofa you buy from Home Center is as real as the animal the leather came from!
Is that an animal-friendly message? Well, we pretend that leather grows on trees, but it doesn’t. It comes from slain animals.
Smart idea, but controversial.

Join the can collection drive and save the environment.
These are from the same campaign we posted two days ago.
The use of images and colors from Pepsi and Coca-Cola to associate these companies with the Can Collection Drive is interesting. These big soft drinks companies probably have no problem with such representation of their image, but did they provide approval?
It opens up a wider debate of whether mainstream brands being used in unapproved advertising should be allowed without prior notice if it’s for a non-profit cause.

Islamic traditional art meets modern graphic design tools, and here are some of the results, from Ramadan greeting cards, Ramadan promotions and other sources.

Well, it is the season for Ramadan-themed advertising, and this is an interesting, if not completely understandable, poster for Burger King.
Obviously, Ramadan starts when Muslims witness the moon crescent, and that’s supposed to be the ‘creative’ connection
But what is this ad saying?
Maybe we also need to figure out if it’s an official Burger King ad or just the independant work of the people whose credits appear on Ads Of The World.
