Hotel Para Plantas

28th July 2011

hotel para plantas ogilvy madrid Hotel Para Plantas

From the 1st July to the 31st August, residents of Madrid going on holiday can rest easy that their plants are being well cared for, by checking them into Hotel Para Plantas at the Isla Azul Shopping Center.

The brainchild of experiential marketing agency Ogilvy Action, plant owners can drop off their leafy friends for a free full-board and have them looked after by a team of professional botanists. All “guests” are given special treatment to suit their needs, there are security cameras to make sure your plants aren’t neglected and audio downloads available to stimulate growth and scare off pests!

Functionally the campaign aims to drive more customers to the shopping center with positive PR and a chance for shoppers to win €500 when they register their details. Very clever.

I wish we had a plant hotel in Cape Town.

Designer macaroons…mmmm! Theurel & Thomas is the first French pâtisserie in Mexico to specialise in macaroons.

I love the colours and am loving their branding even more. How beautiful is the logo? Considering I don’t even like macaroons, awesome Mexican design agency Anagrama have done their job extremely well…I want to eat them all NOW!

Neon Friday

16th July 2010

To round off a week of letters I found this amazing neon light alphabet by Berlin designers, Bank.

I love it because it’s neon and because the entire alphabet is made from a single piece of tube. How amazing! Depending on how you hold it, depends on which letter of the alphabet you create. Design genius at it’s best.

They’ve done some great experimental work and the opening page on their site is quite simply genius. My favourite has to be the rabbits at the back. Definitely worth a few minutes out of your day.

Toffie

28th May 2010

I just read that Toffie will be taking part in the Buenos Aires Festival Internacional de Diseño at the end of October. Since I missed the Cape Town Festival in March, maybe I can squeeze in a trip to BsAs?!

This cool mural is just off Long Street and was part of the advertising for the Toffie Pop Culture Festival held here in March…
