Absolut cities


In 1999, the excellent Swedish vodka brand Absolut launches a campaign about the cities of the world. I run into Paris's one on Facebook, with a superb metro entrance designed by Guimard.


Unfortunately, I think this campaign went quite unnoticed. You can click on the picture to enlarge them and discover the picture from closer to distinguish the legendary shape of the vodka bottle.


Some visuals are rather sutle and don't necessarily represent the cliches of the cities - Dublin or Mexico City for instance. These ads however, totally represent the simple, yet sophisticated spirit of the brand. I choose to end this post with Stockholm's picture, that's where the Absolut vodka was invented back in 1879.

All the Absolut ads can be found at www.absolutad.com
