Treehouse Restaurant
Award: Yellow Pencil
Yellow Pencil / Branding / Brand Communications in 3D & Environments / 2010
Yellow Pages claims it can help anyone get any job done. We decided to prove it by challenging someone to build a restaurant in a tree using only Yellow Pages to make it happen. We picked Tracey, an unknown accordion player from 200 applicants, and based her in a redwood forest with Yellow books, a laptop and a mobile phone. Over three months she worked with more than 65 Yellow listed companies to build a treehouse restaurant. We documented it and kept New Zealand updated via a website, outdoor and TV advertising. Tracey actually opened the restaurant and more than 2,000 people enjoyed dining ten metres above ground in its first month.
