Case study: TAV Engineering, branding for B2B services

Since 1999 TAV Engineering is fully dedicated to provide technical assistance and spare parts for vacuum furnaces of any type and any brand.

Durex, preservatives for creatives
Play video...
Durex launches a worldwide contest between creatives, to design packages that go beyond the usual sunsets or romantic couples holding hands. In Milan during Design Week, Durex exhibits along the hot districts of the event, five huge boxes designed by IED (European Institute of Design) students.
