Organ donation is an emotionally charged topic. To help make a necessary conversation about consent with loved ones easier, we created a campaign that delivered an otherwise serious message in a light and entertaining tone.

The campaign sparked the necessary conversation resulting in over 20 earned media stories, 5 live interviews, one Global National news report. And 4,756 Albertans registered their intent to donate during the campaign period.

Calgary Community Map

Ray Dak Lam

Client - ATB

Illustrator - Ray Dak Lam
Project Lead - Danna Stephens

Art Director - Mike Anthony
Sponsor - Sam Bellamy

This map of Calgary was commissioned by ATB—an Alberta financial institution—to celebrate Calgary’s communities and culture and highlight ATB’s commitment to meeting the financial needs of local residents.

Marrying the artist’s distinctive style with ATB’s brand colours and geometric, interconnected shapes creates a mosaic of the city’s diverse neighbourhoods, natural landscapes and everyday life.

The map is illustrated in quadrants, making it possible to break it into multiple versions. Branches across Calgary proudly display a version of the map that highlights the community in which they operate. The map is displayed in its entirety at ATB’s Calgary corporate headquarters.

Confetti Fridays was a free summer event series in Edmonton, hosted by Michael Phair, Alberta’s first openly gay city councillor. Inspired by the Confetti mural in the park named after him, the series celebrated diversity, inclusion, and drag performance. After its success, Confetti Fourdays condensed the celebration before the park’s closure for construction. The design, inspired by 1980s club posters, used flexible grids to spread colourful bursts of pride across downtown like confetti.

AIRB is just two letters away from an extremely recognizable brand. We couldn’t pass up the chance to leverage this existing brand awareness. So we showed how AIRB is a great place to learn how to save money on auto insurance. But a terrible place to go on holiday.

With the trust of our client, we created a broadcast TV series showing a family who mistake the AIRB office for a vacation rental, and are trying to make the best of it.
