W+K London, Director Fredrik Bond Re-wire The Past With Modern Mischief, Take An Electrifying Ride In The Ford Capri

From its role as the go-to car for stuntmen to its appearances alongside music legends and movie stars, the Capri was a symbol of excitement, individuality, and style. The idea took shape when our creative team, Georgina Brisby and Marcelo Duarte, discovered the archive of legendary vintage Capri ads and suggested ‘rewiring’ them. With... Read More
