Your idea will need to change behavior. It will need to get people excited about exercising. SOLUTION Our solution was a campaign that delivers heart rate monitor bands to families and individuals, with the aim of making exercise fun. The idea was to stay away from simply delivering information, as this has been a method that has been largely unsuccessful in the past. Instead we encouraged group activity to tackle the barriers that people who don't regularly exercise possess.

SOLUTION The design originates for the ideas of complexity, misdirection and pursuit seen throughout Philip Marlowe’s investigation. To visualise this a maze was constructed, then manipulated by hand using folds, to produce a three dimensional object that uses shadow and depth to further emphasise the narrative. Typographically the design was kept simple and appropriate by use of layout and a grotesk typeface. The title design was designed to be subtle and blended into the maze itself, the use of colour and manipulation achieve this.
