Context is: GenZers are staying longer in their parents house due to economically challenging times. They've become young adults with no privacy at their own houses. Sprite is the brand that finds moments of physical and mental heat to provide witty ways to cool it down. So the brief was to help GenZ to deal with this unspoken struggle - but on Sprite's terms. The objective was to rely on Sprite's unique tone of voice to raise awareness about the topic and invite young adults to ask for some privacy.

Since parents have more and more tech devices to watch their children closely, we decided to use technology to revert the logic and tackle GenZ's lack of privacy. So we've created The Knocklace Collection. The perfect gift for parents who never knock. A series of handcrafted necklaces with a built-in device that shows its user's location in real time. It's also a locket to hold a special photograph, so it'll be impossible NOT to wear. In order to talk about such untalkable topic, we've released two online videos featuring famous euphemisms for, you know, feeding ducks or downstairs DJing.

Besides being focused on GenZ - and more specifically on those who still live with their parents - the campaign tackles a problem that have been heating up many generations: the lack of privacy to... feed the ducks But let's be honest: no young adult wants to have such an awkward negotiation with their parents. That's why Sprite came up with The Knocklaces Collection as an unusual approach to raise awareness on such a sensitive topic. As a piece of jewellery that features both sentimental family value and a humorous trap, the Knocklaces elevate Sprite's witty tone of voice, connecting different generations in an entertaining brand experience that helped young adults to have some "me time".

The Knocklaces were created in partnership with Pay4Brain, who developed the tech, along with a duo of jewellery designers (powered by JNTO). Together they've created a real piece of ornament and a beautifully designed digital experience that, besides being real, fun and useful, reinforced Sprite's tone of voice. The Knocklace App featured a real time radar with high level of accuracy, following the necklace's distance and direction. It had customizable settings - distance and emergency links - to better fit any scenario. When the radar perimeter is invaded, the Knocklace automatically sends a push notification. If the invader approaches too quickly, the emergency video take over the screen. All these interactions were turned into digital content that fired up social media during a one-week streak campaign that also featured two online videos portraying famous euphemisms.
