OVERVIEW

Execution

We used mirrors over the urinals in bars to place the viewer directly into the consequence of their actions, and on the back of the stall in women’s bathrooms. They could see themselves in handcuffs, and in jail. That kind of image is hard to ignore.

Outcome

A huge hit from the start. The police love them, Mother’s Against Drunk Driving want to use them, and the ongoing campaign is causing people plenty of sober second thoughts.
