Spandau Arcaden

When one of Berlin's largest shopping centers longs for change, brot & salz is naturally there to help. The simple question "What are the Spandau Arcaden for you?" gave rise to the Arcaden's humorous and colorful new branding campaign - with a good dose of regional patriotism and a pinch of typical Berlin tongue-in-cheek.

So shoppt Berlin

When real Berliners go shopping, a visit to the spa becomes a relaxing vacation, testing headphones in the hi-fi department becomes a concert experience, a date in the food court becomes a 5-course candlelight dinner, "clothes-spotting" becomes a Fashion Week catwalk and a speedy trip in a shopping cart with the kids becomes an adventure vacation - to name just a few of the special shopping experiences.

A place that was previously a transit point becomes a real destination.
The Spandau Arcaden show how the hare runs: So shoppt Berlin!

Spandau Arcaden world of experience.

The interplay of location and experience make the Spandau Arcaden an individual world of experience for everyone. The photo and video production for the campaign could therefore only take place in the arcades themselves. Our models were able to live out real shopping dreams: Who hasn't always wanted to ride the escalator sipping smoothies in a bathrobe and towel turban or fill the vintage Mercedes convertible to bursting point with everything that isn't nailed down in the freshest outfit?

Our photo and video team immortalized these and many other absurdly beautiful shopping moments and the brot & salz designers developed a campaign layout with an extremely high recognition value that perfectly harmonizes photos, videos and the campaign messages.

Colorful Berlin-Spandau vibe.

What do the Berlin TV tower, a currywurst, high heels and Spandau town hall have in common? The Spandau Arcaden! As a special design element, brot & salz introduced an iconographic pattern that can be flexibly designed depending on the occasion and builds a bridge between metropolitan shopping and Spandau's old town. Embedded in a colorful and varied palette that pays homage to all facets of the shopping experience, the result is an inviting campaign look - as colorful as Berlin itself.

In short, viral clips, the Spandau Arcaden show what they have to offer on their social media channels. In 10 seconds, they convey metropolitan shopping vibes in stories and posts, drive community building and interactively link digital communication with the on-site shopping experience.
