Microsoft Launch Biggest Train Station Takeover

Wunderman has created one of the UK’s biggest ever train station takeovers as part of a new integrated campaign for Microsoft Office 365, across Euston, St Pancras, Glasgow, Paddington, Edinburgh, Manchester and Canary Wharf.

 

The "Work From Here" campaign is on a vast scale, incorporating a wide range of media book by UM London, including every digital display in the stations, lawn art, benches with built-in Wi-Fi, paper cups and sandwich bags, traditional outdoor, and special ambient placements on ticket gates, poles, and the tables of several trains.

 

Remarkably, the work involves over 300 bespoke executions as each one is tailored to suit every media placement, with no digital display, billboard, lawn, table or bench using the same creative.

 

 

The creative brings humour and personality through references to local vernacular and landmarks in vicinity of the media such as cafés, exits, waiting areas, or timetable boards, to demonstrate the ability to seamlessly work on the go from any location with Microsoft Office 365.

 

 

The campaign, which launches this week, also introduces a medium that has never been used before – train tables. Wunderman will be the first ever agency to pioneer this new medium across three rail services, on the Stanstead Express and Greater Anglia and Southern railway lines. With free Wi-Fi and tables labelled as 'Boardoom One' or 'Conference Room', commuters could trial Office 365 while hurtling across the country.

 

Following the UK launch, the campaign is set to roll out internationally.
