D&AD Future Impact [Gold] 2020

[CHALLENGE]


In 1935, Penguin revolutionized the paperback market. 85 years larer, the want to heighten the reading experience and enhance the reader's relationship with books.


[TARGET AUDIENCE]


18 to 30-year-old readers. They are time-poor and tech-savvy. They are keen on ethical products, conscious consumption, and having a positive impact on the world.


[INSIGHT]


65% of readers prefer the tactile experience of a physical book. Unfortunately, this often ends up coming at the cost of the planet.


[RATIONALE]


Readers don’t buy a book for its cover. No matter what packaging Penguin books come in, their stories remain intact.

002. [DIGITAL]


It takes one tree to make 8,333 pages. Penguin's website displays the environmental impact of choosing a Naked Book on the trees saved. We promote them using social media ads targeted towards avid readers, allowing them to order the books from the website with a simple swipe-up.

003. [PRINT]


We also create simple, naked print ads using recycled paper and organic ink. These are put in magazines and put up as posters.

004. [OOH]


We create see-through billboards with a single page from the books to build intrigue and drive home the message that the Naked Books are about beautiful stories, no fluff.



We also place ads on rental bikes, catching the environmentally-conscious target audience. If the ads themselves help save so many trees, can you begin to imagine the environmental impact of the books?

005. [ACTIVATIONS]


We create the ‘Naked Bookshelf’ - a section dedicated to the Naked Books in some of the world’s most popular bookstores.



On July 30th, Penguin’s anniversary, we set up the Naked Printer, encouraging book lovers to join the movement by exchanging their old newspapers and magazines for a print of their favorite book.
