The Brief

When UNO the first author's cuisine restaurant opened in Tyumen, it needed promotion badly. Because none in Tyumen knew what author's cuisine was. We decided to show people that author’s dishes are similar to works of art and turn the opening into a real art project.

Describe how the promotion developed from concept to implementation

The city's most famous artists received very unusual invitations. To attend the opening they needed to create small pieces of art. On the opening day the restaurant was completely full. At the heart of the art project there was an experiment. Our guests shared their gastronomical impressions through works of art: paintings, music pieces and dances.

Describe the success of the promotion with both client and consumer including some quantifiable results

As a result more than 300 mass media spotlighted the opening. We received $68 000 worth of earned-media coverage. The restaurant got hundreds of positive reviews. And Tyumen had a major artistic event and the most creative advertising in the history of the city.

Explain why the method of promotion was most relevant to the product or service

All the masterpieces created on the opening day became spectacular advertising and decorated the city streets and radio air. The advertising of the restaurant was as unique, as the culinary talent of the restaurant's chef.
