The phrase ‘mini-monoliths’ made me think of this.

That’s a great advert, very simple but effective.

I also like their ad in page two of Loupe 34 with the tag line Holy SH** :lol: :clap: It's clever, edgy and not full of crap.

Unless you count the sanctified variety that was obviously being hinted at. :lol:

I saw the advert in Loupe and my heart sank a little. I was rather hoping that they would have learnt something from the "Guardian" debacle. Personally I find it neither witty, clever nor edgy. These adverts don't make me want to associate myself with the brand.

The "do your research" still smacks of rudeness to me, especially to someone unfamiliar with a brand.
