Porcelain Bones

“A porcelain as fragile as a bone with
osteoporosis breaks into influencers hands.”

breaks into influencers hands.

AMGEN - Pitch won

Direct, design and PR
Role on this project : Idea, writing, art direction and shooting supervision.
Creative partners : Benjamin Le Coz, Xavier Beauregard
Agency : Les Gaulois - Havas Paris

Idea

Osteoporosis is a degenerative disease that reduces bone strength by 40%, affecting 1 in 3 women over 50.
The challenge was to raise awareness and promote prevention.

Idea

A collection of four porcelain plates was created with a porosity 40% higher than normal, making it as fragile as a bone affected by osteoporosis. These plates break upon the slightest contact. They were sent to the press and influencers with the following message: “Untreated, Osteoporosis makes bones as fragile as this porcelain”.

Results

This project was a true success story. We won the pitch with a single powerful idea, then turned it into massive PR and business results, all on a modest production budget.
The campaign reached 2.4 million people through media coverage and social networks, driving an 18% increase in screening enquiries within three months.
Hundreds of thousands of posters were displayed in hospitals, first in France, then across Europe. The campaign proved so effective that the client extended it twice.

Opportunity :
Unlike its competitors whose chicken nugget are industrial and all look like the the same, KFC’s tanders are handmade with real chicken fillets. This gives each one a unique shape, making it impossible to find two identical ones.

Our idea : To promote our unique tenders, we created the Unique Billboards.
A hundred of non-standardized billboards displayed in the main cities of France.
Handcrafted, imperfect, random, unique : just like our tenders.

Results :
14 million impressions
+17% in quality consideration
+16% of tenders sold in one month compared to the previous month.

Popular in France in 2025

The campaigns we made to build brand love across France. All airing now in 2025.

The campaigns we made to build brand love across France. All airing now in 2025.

Good advertising is about making brands popular.
This section showcases the latest campaigns we’ve made to become popular in France in 2025
- the ones that turned brand love into a national sport.

The campaigns you saw everywhere, from bus shelters to highways, from Bordeaux to Nice, Annecy to Limoges, Paris to Toulouse. The ones that made people laugh out loud in front of their TVs and became catchphrases everyone couldn’t resist repeating, whether at the coffee machine or over sausages at a Sunday barbecue.

These are the moments when brands became part of everyday life. And isn’t that the true purpose of a good campaign?


1664 - À la French

New brand campaign for the 1664 and 1664 Blanc in France.
Agency : Rosbeef (Now HOMERUN)
Role : ECDs
Note : As ECD we won the 1664 pitch for France’s market with this campaign.

1664 is one of the largest beer brand in France and a true national icon.
But the Loi Evin makes every alcohol campaign a real challenge. No fun, no celebration, no depiction of enjoyment. Anything beyond showing the product itself, how it’s made or served, is strictly forbidden. As a result, most campaigns end up as simple packshots.
For this campaign, we managed to stay within the law while still capturing the true spirit of 1664 — the village cafés, the Parisian terraces and the local bars where the French enjoy their favorite beer.*
This campaign increased market share by 10.6% and brand awareness by 12.6%.
It also made 1664 the number one beer brand in France among 25–29 year-olds.


Point S - 2025

Agency : Havas Paris
Role : Independant Creatives


Point S is one of the most popular car garage brands in France.
The brand became part of popular culture thanks to advertising and its famous tagline “Pas de stress, y’a Point S” (“No stress, there’s Point S”), which everyone now uses to say “relax.”
After 20 years of low-budget advertising, it was time to make it fresher, cooler and more polished, while still staying close to real consumers and true to the brand’s history.
It was a bit tricky — but judging by the feedback on the campaign, we pulled it off.


SFR - 40th Anniversary

Agency : Saatchi & Saatchi France
Role : Independant Creatives


SFR, the second biggest telecom operator in France, is turning 40.
That’s a lot of memories together, from the first internet modems and mobile phones to the iPhone and the latest technologies.
It’s a story of many shared moments between the brand and the French people, a tribute to the trust we’ve built, and to all the years still to come.

CITROËN – C3 Aircross
Film TV & Facebook Activation

Agency: Les Gaulois / Havas Paris
Creative partners: Benjamin Lecoz, Xavier Beauregard
Role: Concept, art direction, shooting supervision

The Citroën C3 Aircross is the most modulable SUV on the market.
To promote a modulable car, we created a modulable commercial.
The first commercial made by users, live, on social media.
(Yes, it was in 2017.)

During a Facebook Live, viewers voted in real time for every scene of the film. Out of 20 scenes shot, the 10 most-voted were edited into the final TV commercial. Each country’s audience voted differently, resulting in 7 unique films broadcast on TV.

The film’s premiere on TF1 was a world first: a Facebook Live synchronized with live TV, broadcasting users’ reactions on air. This innovation reconnected social media and television, and the campaign ran on TV in 7 countries for nearly two years.

AWARDS :
Silver (Boule Blanche),
 Club des DA 2023 (Copywriting & audio)

Sports betting is a real drug, causing financial and social problems for more than 1.4 million young gamblers in France. Yet its advertisements are everywhere in the country, abusing the codes of street culture that young people love.

With the World Cup approaching, we, the ANJ - the French Gambling Authority - have created a rap track that uses these codes so prized by the betting industry to instead prevent the risks and dismantle the fantasies surrounding them. Of course, hard hitting punchlines were the main ingredients of the recipe.

The track was produced in collaboration with a renowned rapper and beatmaker who has worked with Nekfeu (top French rapper) to deliver a hit-quality standard record.

Results

First launched on Spotify and Youtube, it was then trending on Tiktok, on the most influential rap media (Skyrock, BooskaP), then on the biggest national media (TF1, France 3, Le Monde, Le Figaro), generating over 300 million organic impressions. The campaign was praised for opening up a debate on an undiscussed social issue.

A shopping experience only a true diver could access.

Octopus watches
Direct, design, Retail and PR

Agency: Les Gaulois / Havas Paris
Creative partners: Benjamin Lecoz, Xavier Beauregard

To promote the unique water resistance of the Octopus watches, we created an underwater store accessible only to highly trained divers. Divers were invited to dive to a depth of 50m to order an exclusive edition. A digital tablet was attached to a lifeline, allowing the divers to swipe and select their favourite product. The watch was delivered by a real octopus straight from the abyss.

Countless movies leave us with the desire to travel… So what if watching movies on VOD could take viewers further ?

Transavia Airlines partnered with Canal+, the leader in VOD in France, to create Holidays On Demand : a simple viewing option available next to each film in the platform's catalogue. The curious who opted for HOD discovered that not only could they watch their film, but they could also instantly get the plane ticket to go and live it.
So Gladiator would take you to Rome, Notting Hill to London, Braveheart to Edinburgh and Casablanca to... Casablanca.
In total, more than 120 films were linked to Transavia destinations.

The results
5.5 million social media impressions led to a massive free media coverage.
More than 320,000 people tried the HOD experience, increasing ticket sales by 14%.

" Transavia’s Holidays on Demand is the perfect moment to book a film-inspired destination and ‘live the story’. "Contagious

ORANGE

Agency : Publicis Conseil - Paris

Less than 30% of French people know the women who will represent their country at the 2019 World Cup.
Orange is launching a campaign to bring the country 100% behind it's national women's football team through this competition.

Results
Orange asked us to create a social media film and pool of content. The campaign took social media by storm: the French women's national team players shared the video massively and even some famous male stars like Blaise Matuidi tweeted their support. As a consequence of this effectiveness, our client decided to extend the media scale and bring the film onto TV (TF1 and BEIN Sport).

AWARDS :
Boule Bleu, Club des DA (ADC) 2021

Elephant Bleu is the leading car wash company in Europe. The insight we found : a perfectly clean car makes every reflection beautiful. We made 4 visuals of these reflections. The viewer goes through two stages of reading : first he sees a beautiful landscape, like an impressionist painting, and then a figurative car detail reveals a second reading : it's actually the image of a reflection on a magnificently clean car.

This campaign proves that high quality creativity can be done for any brand. Even the most challenging. Because the harder the challenge, the more rewarding the result.

What's the first step people take when planning a holiday ? Googling it on Google Images.

Idea 
Transavia hijacked Google image's results with strategic visuals related to the user's research. This encouraged users to purchase real tickets instead of looking at pictures on the internet.

How ?
We inserted strategic images on Transavia.com, a website viewed by thousands, so the images would surface as top Google Images results.

Winter is over, it's time to get back to running. Will you challenge Vivaldi and run as much as you can on the Spring ?

We asked the electro artist Nömak to remix the classic Vivaldi’s Spring to start a social-driven sport challenge. This challenge was then launched by 4 key sport influencers and Nike athletes. Meet them in this trailer :

A special rework of Vivaldi's Spring was composed and mixed by Nömak.
