Nike - Write the future

Ads don't usually get put on here, but Nike's World Cup spot is awesome. It's beyond advertising. 3 minutes of solid gold from the best advertiser in the world...



Then there's the spin-offs - such as this Rooney one...



Hats off to W+K London. It's the best ad in yonks. It'll hoover up awards like a Dyson. And rightly so.

No Trash NYC

Lovely vision of a trashless NYC by Ideo...

NO TRASH NYC 2030 from IDEO on Vimeo.



Direct from their site: "As part of Living Climate Change, IDEO New York imagines Manhattan in 2030 as a city without trash. When most people consider the environmental impact of trash, steamy landfills and smoky incinerators come to mind. The reality, however, is that these are merely endpoints of a much larger system. Come take a look or view more scenarios at Living Climate Change, a place to discuss the most defining design challenge of our time."

Graffiti preservation

Sweza uses QR Codes to preserve graffiti, photographing graffiti before it is removed by local authorities. Once the graffiti has been removed, he adds a QR Code in the same location, leading to an image of the original.





P-Tree

A great idea from Sam van Veluw - now you can avoid dirty festival bogs.
