The Toyota Prius is a pretty flippen smart car, with all sorts of nifty features designed to keep you safe, cut fuel costs, reduce your carbon footprint and be all-round kind to lovely Mrs Nature. It is a car that is, in all senses, built for the planet. With this in mind DraftFCB Johannesburg devised a campaign that adapted artist/illustrator Brice Reignier’s ‘Mecha-Zoo” artworks into print and billboard executions.

Lovely work, as ever, Brice.
Sulet Shulze won the Big Blue Makhulu Polane comp in 2006 – her Spoed.vark design was part of her mechanimal collection….I don’t know the background details but coincidence? or not in terms of concept – here’s her design from 2006 http://mars.bizcommunity.com/c/0701/4377.jpg
