introduces character-led storytelling platform in new global campaign via Jung Von Matt"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>United Kingdom \u2013 MINI has unveiled a new global brand campaign, marking its first major international product push under Jung von Matt as lead creative agency and introducing a character-led storytelling platform that brings the MINI Cooper range to life through the imaginative lens of a single protagonist.<\/p>\n<p>Built around a modular narrative system, the campaign follows a car wash attendant whose everyday routine takes a cinematic turn as each MINI model entering his bay sparks a vivid daydream.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>With the MINI Cooper 5-Door, he imagines himself travelling through the city with a close-knit group of friends on their way to a gig.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>The all-electric MINI Cooper inspires a tender family moment as he envisions driving through an urban landscape with his daughter by his side.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>When the MINI Cooper 3-Door arrives, the fantasy shifts into full go-kart mode, tearing through a parking garage with sharp corners, tight turns, and pure driving thrill.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Together, the three stories form a playful yet emotionally driven expression of the MINI Cooper range, positioning each model as a distinct way to experience the road and a different version of oneself.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Designed for markets across three continents, the modular structure allows each narrative to be adapted or expanded to reflect regional nuances, while retaining MINI\u2019s distinctive wit and tone of voice.<\/p>\n<p>The campaign was delivered through collaboration across the MINI Factory network and partner agencies, including Accenture Song, BECC Agency, Dentsu, Meir\u00e9 und Meir\u00e9, and Serviceplan, with creative direction and execution led by Jung von Matt\u2019s Zurich and London offices.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It marks a strategic milestone in the Jung von Matt\u2013MINI partnership, reinforcing the agency\u2019s focus on blending emotional storytelling, design, and strategy to achieve global scale and cultural relevance.<\/p>\n<p>The work follows another <a href=\"https:\/\/marketech-apac.com\/jung-von-matt-turns-paul-smiths-design-philosophy-into-a-global-mini-story\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">recent global MINI campaign<\/a> by Jung von Matt celebrating the latest design collaboration between MINI and British fashion designer Paul Smith, which translated Smith\u2019s \u201cclassic with a twist\u201d philosophy into a design-led narrative built around a \u201cmemory palace\u201d concept.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Conceived by Jung von Matt Zurich and Jung von Matt London, the campaign placed Smith\u2019s creative process at the centre of the storytelling and rolled out across film, photography, outdoor, social, and experiential formats in markets including Japan, Germany, the UK, Switzerland, and the US.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeople today are more design literate than ever\u2013they notice the smallest details,\u201d said Christian Kies, creative lead at Jung von Matt. \u201cOur goal was to guide them through the designer\u2019s thinking so that every visual element feels intentional, earned, and true to both collaborators.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"United Kingdom
