  • Why it’s awesome: This ad is playful, interactive, and directly connects the idea of ‘damaged teeth’ (pins being hit) with the need for dental care. The cost ("€9.90 per month") is prominently displayed, making it not just eye-catching but informative. The creative placement in a bowling alley ensures maximum relatability and engagement.Loren ipsum dolor loren ipsum dolor, loren ipsum dolor. Loren ipsum dolor.

  • Why it’s awesome: The design cleverly repurposes a format associated with seriousness into something joyous and cheeky. The clean, retro typography and color-coded variations make the branding visually striking. It’s a subtle commentary on how a change in perspective or purpose can turn something ordinary into a statement piece.
