Night-time city billboard: an extreme macro crop of a condensation-covered Coca-Cola can, headline reading Classic with a vanilla spin.
The can crops so far in that the script runs off the frame on three sides. Only a brand this recognisable can afford to show a fragment and assume the whole.

The proposition is a choice. So the work makes you make one — on the poster, and then with your own face.

Two languages, one idea

Outdoor holds a single sentence and changes one word in it. Classic with a ___ spin. The flavour word is the only variable, and it carries everything: its own colour, its own weight, its own fruit dropped into a red field that never moves. Condensation does the appetite work; the type does the rest.

Digital breaks the register completely — acid gradients, 8-bit sprites, sticker type, emoji punctuation. Not a translation of the poster into a phone, which is where most campaigns lose teenagers, but a different language chosen for the place it runs.

What holds the two together is the mechanic. This or That tracks your head and asks you to tilt left or right to pick a side. The choice in the product becomes the thing your body does. That is the join, and it is the reason two registers this far apart still read as one campaign.

The same idea, made playable

AR filter screen showing face tracking with the instruction: tilt your head left or right to spin the classic.
AR filter: a binary choice between I'm fine with a calm emoji and I'm fine with a stressed emoji.
AR filter: a binary choice between muting the group chat and group chat drama.
AR filter: a binary choice between dog lover and cat lover, with pixel-art corgis.

Every filter is the same two-option structure, and the questions get sharper as they go — a flavour, then a pet, then how you actually feel when you say you're fine. The pack loops run in the same register rather than cutting to polished product.

One sentence, five flavours

Underground digital screen: Classic with a lime spin, the word lime set in green with a lime wedge.
Street digital screen: Classic with a vanilla spin, the word vanilla set in cream.
Bus shelter poster: Classic with a cherry spin, the word cherry set in magenta with a cherry silhouette.
Bus shelter poster: Classic with a lemon spin, the word lemon set in yellow with a lemon wedge.

Shown as a strict grid on purpose. The regularity is the point: one layout, four flavours, no bespoke artwork anywhere in the set.
