Adobe Flash in wonderland
Together with our friends at Unit9, we created this lovely interface/setting.
The whole thing started as a project regarding a button or two, but ended up being a lot more than that.
Clean & quirky made this one a stunner, only we wish we could have made the rubber duck explode!

The recyclable Tin-Man
On our way to work this morning we bumped into this lovely robot man walking his robot dog. Initially we thought that finally the future had arrived but it seems it was just a children’s show filming.

Samsung Style has launched!
Helpful Strangers have taken care of the interactive direction on this project and also been in charge for the overall look & feel of the site. It’s all about liquid metal, and to emphasize this we’ve created a very nice widget that you can see whilst you load the site, but also deeper into the site by clicking “Play with style & function”.

The sweetest way to save the Honey Bees
Honey Bees are disappearing rapidly and no one knows why, so Häagen-Dazs® ice cream is raising awareness on the plight of our stripy pollinating friends. To do this, Goodby, Silverstein & Partners teamed up with Unit9/Helpful Strangers and created a microsite that’s all about making people aware and having fun doing so.

Uhh…mmy!
A friend of ours had a bit to much spare time on his hands and contemplated starting a T-Shirt brand, helpful as we are we came up with a couple of illustrations and this is one of them. The little blue things you can see circling around his head is clouds. That means his head is a metaphor for the earth. We are clever that way.

Crash’n'Burn
We were asked to take part in an exhibition to showcase the similarities and differences between Japan & Sweden. Our contribution was based on the concept of a big floating landmass and how it crashes through the atmosphere to its impending doom.

Turn Around
Doing the interactive direction on this job we had to face several challenges; how do you create a site that’s still personal and at the same time conveys FedEx core values and can hold a lot of information?
It’s obvious, you make everyone tiny and populate the backside of the world with doors and stairs!
There where plenty of other fun stuff that didn’t make it in in the end, a rocket man, day/night cycle and random dances.
Hopefully they will appear if there’s ever a 2.0 version.

Commit to switch!
For this campaign we needed to show how much can be done for the environment just by paying a little attention. To represent this concept, we envisioned a beautiful unfolding landscape, that gets bigger and bigger as the chain reaction has started. So we created a number of artworks with greenery and lofty trees and trickling pure water to remind ourselves how beautiful our planet is.
