We brought the Smart Car's unique ability to navigate narrow city streets to life with reverse perspective posters that tricked viewers eyes, making the streets seem even harder to navigate.

Hong Kong execution
Hong Kong is famous for its narrow and congested streets.
It’s the perfect city for a Smart Car.
To bring this to life in the showroom, posters were created using an optical illusion called reverse perspective – which causes the roads to appear narrow and 3D, despite being completely static.
This reminded people that on Hong Kong’s roads, you want less car and more space.
