New Zealand has some of the highest rates of bullying in the OECD. To tackle this FCB and the Ministry of Education developed a campaign targeted at children during their transition to primary school.

By combining a classic storybook format with the interactive possibilities of digital media, we immersed children and their families in the animated world of ‘Oat the Goat’. Set from the perspective of a bystander, the reader was empowered to become involved in the decisions faced by the main character ‘Oat’ when he encountered bullying.

A simple, bold and confident design aesthetic, using typography and illustration, was used throughout the whole building to help communicate Vodafone’s brand values

Our task was to express Vodafone’s brand values in a way that would enhance the environment for Vodafone customers, business partners and staff to enjoy.

A simple, bold and confident design aesthetic, using typography and illustration, was used throughout the whole building to help communicate Vodafone’s brand values.

We also used design to create a link between the building, the land, and the people. So we constructed the Vodafone logo entirely out of timber reclaimed from severely damaged buildings in the Canterbury earthquakes – a powerful symbol that shows Vodafone’s commitment to the area, and to the rebuilding process. And to further the link between the brand, the building and the land– Harakeke flax, a special symbol for the local Iwi, is used as a reoccurring motif.

These design aesthetics were rolled out through the entire building, creating a vibrant workspace that has with Vodafone’s brand values front and centre for everyone in the building to enjoy.

Despite reaching a record level of awareness about depression, most people weren’t doing anything to deal with it.

We knew information alone would not create the behaviour change necessary for self-help strategies to be an effective treatment.

FCB led a coalition of partners to create The Journal – an online programme that taught people the skills and helped put them into action. It was the first self-help solution in the world to integrate advertising, e-learning and live support services.
