  • A lovely print campaign from IWC and Jung von Matt

    Oh how I’d love to be in the room when the Creative Directors Daniel Frericks and Götz Ulmer pitch their idea to a 140 year old watch brand. This is a business where people stick by the rules. Big ass photography where the product is the hero. All ads look more or less the same. […]

Among others, Art Directors Viktor Arve, Ted Harry Mellström, Simon Higby and another […]
