It was smack on many billboards there, pretty cool stuff:http://www.absolutads.com/gallery/reklama.php?id=1157These are my personal favorites:http://www.absolutads.com/gallery/reklama.php?id=891 http://www.absolutads.com/gallery/reklama.php?id=269 http://www.absolutads.com/gallery/reklama.php?id=729 http://www.absolutads.com/gallery/reklama.php?id=560 http://www.absolutads.com/gallery/reklama.php?id=314 http://www.absolutads.com/gallery/reklama.php?id=362What if you had to design an Absolut Amman ad? What would you suggest?I think that using the Amphitheater, with the shadow of a person walking by, could be incorporated as the Absolut Bottle. Or perhaps a bottle dipped in Dead Sea mud, or a floating Absolut bottle in Dead Sea water. Or maybe the Siq in Petra in the shape of the bottle.
