Background

German DIY store HORNBACH is known for their massive product range. So massive that people tend to forget that there's more to a great DIY store: Amazing service. The HORNBACH Interconnented Retail services entail a series of various online and offline services for the DIY-er, such as a professional wood-cutting service, transporter rental, reserve & collect, machinery rental and many, many more. Sounds like a dry subject? Can you communicate such a factual message and still show a sense of humor?

Describe the strategy

HORNBACH has an international presence in 9 countries. And while our project market positioning communicates a focused investment in service performance everywhere, our customers’ actual respective services and needs vary from country to country. That's why communication must be flexible enough to be relevant everywhere.

Describe the execution

HORNBACH accepted the challenge to visualize the perfect interplay of the Interconnected retail services with a cinematic, rapid camera ride through their massive markets, only coming to a halt when we are right in the middle of the service in question. Paired with visual comedy and the typical dry HORNBACH humor, the ride through the services ends with a thought-provoking, crucial question: What would your project be...without HORNBACH's Interconnected Retail?
