The Magical
Garage 2
Building upon the success of our previous brand campaign, we’ve already opened the door to a very special place: the Magical Garage—a place where groundbreaking innovations turn into magic, thanks to the most desirable host: Mercedes. This follow-up campaign continues the narrative and presents four more innovations: intelligent comfort, immersive sound, automated driving, and digital extras.
Each feature redefines the driving experience in its own way, putting the passenger at the very center. A principle that also comes into play in the campaign. Aboard a floating car seat, our protagonist immerses herself in the surreal worlds of the magical garage. The result is a fantastic journey that playfully blurs the boundaries between reality and abstract metaphor.
