Creative Direction for the launch campaign of the Nike Dunk Low. Inspired by the iconic concrete buildings widely known as “Plattenbau”– easily one of the most recognizable elements of the German urban landscape. Their uniform aesthetic was the inspiration for the hyperlocal, exclusive Berlin-focused product.
The duality of hope (TRAUM) and fatality (TRISTESSE) were explored in a manifesto film and we played on that yin/yang dynamic in the launch event, where influencers experienced gourmet dining by Michelin-starred chef Tim Raue with a monochrome landscape of an open sky hovering over their heads. The launch was exclusively done with Overkill, and a never seen before purchase experience in one of the most iconic plattenbau in the heart of Berlin. Individual keys to a plattenbau apartment instead of the actual product were handed to the winners of the raffle. Consumers were directed to the unique location, opening the door to a transformed plattenbau apartment with their own key. They were then invited to collect their pair from a building like wall construction, taking the plattenbau down 1 brick at a time, and revealing inspirational videos from our protagonists.
