The 'Gift Generator' Campaign
Meri worked on the concept, art direction and execution of the 2015 Salvatore Ferragamo ‘Gift Generator’ campaign; including a series of 6 short films, a microsite and a printed catalogue - all shot by MAP photographer, David Hughes.
The agency developed the equilibrium concept; a state of precarious balance between objects, inspired by Erwin Wurm’s ‘One Minute Sculptures’ and achieved with the help of New York-based set designer, Andy Harman.
This theme then continues through to the art direction and colour palette with the use of geometrical shapes - recalling the constructivism movement whist using raw materials such a wood, felt and concrete to bring a contemporary twist.
Finally, the campaign is completed with a provocative but lightly humorous tone of voice. Used on the microsite, the original lines of self assured copy read: ‘For the Proud Minimalist’, ‘For the Hopeless Romantic’, ‘For the Eternal Unsatisfied’ - a welcome change from the usual festive clichés.
All of this together showcases the iconic Ferragamo name with a reassuringly familiar, but refreshingly modern seasonal campaign.
