London NYE 2013 Fireworks

I've just returned from 8 days in the UK, three of which were spent in London. I kept seeing the ad for the NYE fireworks, and had to Google it when I came home as I thought it was beautiful. 

It follows on from the 2012 campaign (which I must admit I didn't see until now). It's a shame the red is as a result of being 'presented by' Vodafone, but I actually think the simplicity of white on red works far better than the colours on black for 2012. 

Creative direction is by Tom Lancaster, design by Glen Birchall, Sergio Fernandez and Vivienne Lang, and print by trade winds, project management by Niki Lemon. 

Good stuff. 

Christmas 2013

I've got 5 favourite Christmas ads, yes, two of which are John Lewis ads but so what. They're wonderful. Two others are pretty old, and the last is from last year. Here they all are for your Christmas enjoyment.

Later today, I'm off to the Motherland for a weekend in London and then a week in the countryside with family. Happy Christmas everyone. I hope yours is as good as mine. 

Sorry for the terrible quality of this one. If anyone finds a better one I'll buy them a mince pie.
