BBH

"This is New York City", NYC



Amazing art direction. It is so creative and fun and embodies everything New York has to offer. Everyone loves NY and this commercial proves why. It is a city that has so much history and entertainment and BBH successfully showcased what New York can provide to tourists or anyone interested in going there. I love the Ella Fitzgerald song playing along with the commercial as well.

"Barclaycard", London



This put me in the mood for summertime! Very unique idea and crazy concept. The idea is to make things easier to pay and make payments faster. It takes an ordinary man leaving work and traveling throughout the city just to make it home in a perfectly effortless fashion. If only this could happen in real life!

"Smirnoff: Tea Party", New York



YESSS!!! I had no idea BBH did this and it's always been one of my favorite commercials. It's just so ridiculous and great all at the same time. It's pretty catchy. I remember people constantly quoting this and doing their own re-enactments.

"LG Steam Washer", London



This is such a cool way to sell a washing machine. Taking the idea of steam cleaning and blasting it throughout the city is innovative and new. The steam has the effect of polishing coppper, metal, and turning grays back into whites. I really liked it and it was enjoyable to watch. To think that they put in so much effort for a washing machine shows some dedication.

"Levi's: Laundrette", NY


This ad is from the 1950s and announced the arrival of the new Levi's stonewashed jean. I love it-- it's so Grease style with the tight black shirt and ponytail bopping girls. I am a little surprised this could air back then because he strips down to his underwear in front of everyone, but then again Levi's has always done pretty revealing advertisements.
