Global creative agency DAVID has announced that Luis Giraldo and Felipe Antonioli have joined as creative directors in its Miami office. After nearly three years at Goodby Silverstein & Partners San Francisco, Luis and Felipe are returning to DAVID, where they were previously part of the creative team at DAVID Madrid (2019 – 2022). Bringing a wealth of global expertise and a proven track record of award-winning work, the duo, who have been working together for 7 years, will be creating for clients such as Google and Mondelez.

Luis and Felipe will both report to Edgard Gianesi, DAVID Miami's chief creative officer. "Welcoming Luis and Felipe to the DAVID Miami team signals a bold step forward for the agency," says Edgard. “Their exceptional creative vision and ability to craft culturally resonant, award-winning work align perfectly with our mission of pushing the boundaries of what's possible in creative."

Throughout his career, Luis has worked on iconic campaigns for brands like Burger King, Pond's Men, Corona, and Doritos. Recognised as the #1 copywriter in the world by the Cannes Lions Global Creativity Report (2021), Luis is the creator of one of the most awarded campaigns in Spanish advertising history - Burger King Stevenage Challenge - with accolades, including Grand Prix at Cannes Lions, Clio Awards, The One Show, and LIA, among others.

Felipe Antonioli returns as a highly acclaimed art director with over 13 years of experience across the US, European, and Brazilian advertising markets. He has developed innovative campaigns for global brands such as Doritos, Burger King, Corona, Dove, Magnum, and Havaianas. Felipe has earned over 200 international awards, including the first-ever Titanium Lion for Spain, three Cannes Lions Grand Prix, and three Yellow Pencils at D&AD. He is also the creator of the Burger King Stevenage Challenge campaign, which received multiple global accolades. In 2021, he was ranked the #1 Art Director at the Cannes Lions Festival.

"Returning to DAVID, now in Miami, is an incredible opportunity to craft meaningful and impactful campaigns for brands we admire," says Luis. "We're thrilled to re-join DAVID, now in Miami, and push creative boundaries with such an inspiring team and amazing clients," completes Felipe.
