Rise of the machines!
Truly stylish — the M·A·C presentation at Globus in Zurich.
To be allowed to realise a complete world of experience for the M·A·C brand, by Estée Lauder, seemed almost a bit surreal to us. After we had brought ourselves back to reality, we were already in the middle of planning. Really now — that’s how it is at BRAINARTIST … The industrial robot arm, we constructed after a (attention: pun!) ‘hand-drawn sketch’ by one of our designers.
Above the laser engraving station, this concept attracted the desired attention in an almost machine-like precise way. From the oversized lipsticks to the smallest plotted letter, everything, including installation, actually came from BRAINARTIST and its partner companies — we truly swear.
Back to black: #CO&CO SELECTED.
Shining hours the second. Our design of the Rheingau cultural festival ‘SCHÖN HIER’ has been mentioned and awarded in the current BLACK issue of the design magazine ‘#CO&CO’: https://co-and-co.de/100-black-ist-da/
Reason enough for us to celebrate a little long before the opening of this event. Even if the weather is not quite right for a garden party, here is everything you need to know about this award-winning outdoor event: https://www.schoenhierfestival.de/
Geometry that rocks.
What sounds more complicated than it actually is, is the new Nike React Infinity Run Flyknit.
This shoe was specially developed to — quite simply — prevent injuries. Nike calls the specially developed combination of special cushioning and sole shape a ‘rocker geometry’ for a smoother rolling motion while running. For us this sounded like another starting signal for another campaign in the Berlin Nike store.
Briefing: January 7th 2020. Installation was completed on 30th January — so we could look forward to the next projects with Nike very, very quickly.
‘You never do it just for you.’
It is precisely this attitude that an agency should — always — go to work with.
So can it be a coincidence that BRAINARTIST implemented and staged the first campaign developed in Germany for the German market for Nike in Berlin? All in all, Nike included more than 15 real heroes in the campaign. Because they do what they want to do, against all odds and doubts. In this way they not only help themselves but also others.
Of course we wanted to help first — and were pleased to do so in all three Nike stores in Berlin — In addition, the fearless IT heroes of BRAINARTIST developed the applications for the iPad and modestly controlled the content of the displays directly from our secret control room in Eltville.
The video can be viewed on the german campaign site.

Breakfast: Why it’s so important for success.
As an ‘early bird’ at breakfast with BRAINARTIST you can now put this much-cited claim to the test.
When loyal customers woke up in the morning in our neighbouring hotel after a workshop in the nightlife of Rüdesheim, sometimes only a double espresso helped to finish the job decently the next day. But if you want to visit us for the first time, you should have had a good breakfast first, anyway. In the stylish and telephone system-free ambience, you can easily arrange a kick-off, a first briefing or just get to know each other.
Since we show up (slightly untypical for the usual creatives) rather early in our office, we are happy about every early self-invitation under earlybird@brainartist.de.
Again no Grammy — but the ‘Prestige Award’!
When the music industry honours stars, starlets and newcomers year after year, we are always filled with unenvious admiration.
Because we don’t want a Grammy at all — yet we unwaveringly strive for the recognition of our achievements. And we have just received it: The ‘Prestige Award 2020’ in the category ‘Marketing Specialist’ is ours. But one thing at a time.
The ‘Berlin Prestige Award Guide’ reaches more than 100,000 readers based in Berlin and the surrounding area; as (old school) print and (very hot) digital format. Every year, the Prestige Award’s team committee invites readers and contributors to a delightful corporate meeting where companies, products and services are presented — to honor very, very few of them.
We are all the more proud of the ‘Marketing Specialist’ award, which honours our activities in omni-channel marketing, PoS design and strategic brand management. We bow down.

How BRAINARTIST warms up in winter.
As soon as the thermometer rises above 10 degrees, the colleagues at BRAINARTIST start to leave their cars.
This may be because at such temperatures we ask ourselves, ‘How can we bring ourselves up to temperature for the working day?’ Right: with a muscle-driven warm-up in rush-hour traffic. With this we want to free up our place in the public transport system and be happy in the middle of the Rheingau already in the morning that we are allowed to work where others only take holidays.
Our fireworks 2019 — as always: our customers.
Since rockets and firecrackers have become a bit out of fashion because of climate, environment and the more and more difficult to understand thought of burning money, we’d like to arrange something much more reasonable here:
A ‘fireworks of customers’, so when watching this fireworks sometimes even ourselves can only say ‘Ooh!’ or ‘Aah!’. That’s how BRAINARTIST says to the best, the most beautiful and the most exciting clients there are, very loud and cracking, ‘Thank you all — not only for 2019! And a “cheers” to 2020, the year in which we will again ignite concepts with you, let projects take off and last but not least simply celebrate!’
