Entries from January 2008
Some weeks ago, 2008scandinavia was challenged to create Norli´s Antique Books first website. Norli´s Antique Books is a small store in downtown Oslo, full of great literature. When you walk in, you leave the modern world behind, and instantly, the pace slows down. The scent of old leather, paper and the carpet, which should have been vacuum cleaned every now and then, is like a spa for your mind. Then, you find an old book, sit down in one of the old chairs and start reading. It´s quiet, just you and your book and, and…how the hell are you going to transfer this feeling into an interesting digital idea? We sat down with our friends in the premium norwegian digital company Mediafront, and came up with this solution: www.norlisantiquebooks.com

Our campaign for Teknograd has become very popular. Thousands of people have visited 2008scandinavia.com to have a closer look. On the best day, 2600 people popped in, and today we´ll pass 5000 visitors. That´s pretty good after just 3 weeks in business and two campaigns. The Teknograd-campaign has excisted in our heads for quite some time. We did a little research job in our folders (which behaved nicely), and found the very first sketch. So, here we go, Teknograd, the very first attempt:

Our client Oxygo recently launched the first in a string of new gyms. A hypermodern fitness and training center for ordinary people. No bodybuilders. No ears getting blown out by Slayer. A combined training and nutrition program can make life more enjoyable for even the laziest coach potato. This doublespread newspaper ad ran saturday the 19th of January, and we think it is quite relevant, simple and funny. (At least it made our girlfriends laugh.)

Wow. 2008scandinavias first ever campaign for Teknograd is out there. In Brazil, Germany, Japan, China, USA, UK, Holland, France, Portugal, Canada…you name it. The feedback is very good, which makes us proud and inspired. However, after we let our dear Teknograd-campaign leave home for the first time, we discovered that we simply had forgot to name each folder in the illustrations individually. So here is the campaign again. Updated and better version. Magazine ads, outdoor, indoor posters.

2008scandinavia is a brand new creative communication collective. Our idea is simple. To offer modern advertisers a creative partner in constant change. Just like the world we live in.
