Background

From the research, we discovered that Taiwan young adults and The Big Mac share the same purpose “The One and Only” and the results showed that they are not familiar with the world iconic burger as well. So we need to create a piece of popular news to enhance the connection between Taiwanese young adults and The Big Mac.

For over 3 decades, the iconic Big Mac lived alongside with the Taiwanese people. So, we added some local flavor to the Big Mac Making it our own. We collaborated with famous Taiwanese artists to re-created vintage metal window grills, Pressed Floral glass, and handmade patterned clay tiles. Combined these elements with abstract, modern design of Big Mac. A fusion of classic and modern, beyond time and space This is “The One and Only” Big Mac of Taiwan
