3M Scotch Magic Tape: Magic

3M Scotch Magic Tape: Magic
Your rating: None Average: 7 (68 votes)

Like magic. 3M

Brief: Among 3M magic tape's many benefits are that it adheres well and leaves no residue. A package wrapped with magic tape that appears to be completely seamless raises consumer awareness about the benefits of magic tape.
Solution: Tape is a simple, ubiquitous product that needs little introduction. We wanted to catch the consumer’s interest and set our product apart from the competition by creating a clever, minimalist advertisement. At first glance, our magic box looks like an ordinary package. The missing lines spark the viewer’s interest, asking them to take a second look and make the connection between the product, copy, and visual.

La caja está sellada con cinta 3M
pero la cinta tiene una textura especial que no se nota para nada =)

The edges of the box are "sealed" closed so tightly with Scotch, it feels like it doesn't have any edges.

Is like the lockers campaign from Leo Burnett Thailand, or the one with the doors that you cannot open but applied to another product. Done

I feel like their attempt to explain the idea actually confused people. It's simple; I like it.
