Results and Effectiveness:

The campaign received quite a bit of notoriety. It was featured in over 20 business articles and blogs. More importantly, it helped convince Citibank to relocate its entire Singapore operations into one address. This opened the floodgates. The project surpassed projected targets 14 months early.

Creative Execution:

Asia Square is indeed a break through. It’s the most human-friendly tower yet designed in Singapore. Its square, column-free floor plates are the largest in the city state. To highlight its many advantages, we designed a launch campaign that literally doubled in size over each page in Singapore’s leading business daily. The intention was to own that day’s edition.

Insights, Strategy and the Idea:

Singapore’s skyline is undergoing massive change. An unprecedented building boom in the commercial sector is setting the stage for critical oversupply. New projects must fight for attention amidst a remarkable amount of clutter. Cut through is almost as important as break through.
