Come Together

Since inventing the car, Mercedes-Benz has been fighting the wind. In wind tunnels, in Formula 1 and on the road. But now, they start working in partnership. In 2022, all Mercedes-Benz factories worldwide will obtain electricity only from renewable energy sources. An ambitious message like that needed an ambitious statement, so Mercedes did something that once you see it, can never be unseen. We stroke up an alliance with the wind and transformed a massive wind turbine into a gigantic Mercedes logo. To announce Mercedes and the wind joining forces.

A wind turbine becomes the 
Mercedes logo in the brand's
cinematic sustainability spot.

MILLBOARD

Activation

The Millboard

We transformed a 70x120m wind turbine into the biggest Mercedes billboard you have ever seen; The Millboard. By adding a ring of light, we linked the iconic logo to sustainable energy and imprinted an image in people's minds that cannot be unseen whenever you spot a wind turbine.
