Execution

Sony started a brand new form of recycling. We regenerated a giant advertising tarp at the Sony Building in Tokyo to jeans. A pair of the jeans is a one and only design because it is hand-made of Sony Ads with diversified design. Exclusively selling 120 pairs for 180 USD each, and a portion of proceeds are donated to restoring World Heritage Sites. This activity is a tangible corporate branding activity by Sony. We sold them at the place of origin: Sony Building’s wall. Vegetables at a farm taste better. Sushi at a fishing port tastes better. That is “farm fresh”. So we aimed to gain a better understanding of the recycling concept by selling at where the ad was run.
