Christmas Advent Window

Two D&AD Student of the Year winners are bringing Christmas cheer to east London.  Harri Leppälä and Petra Muda won the prize just this summer and we are really happy to report, they are now gainfully employed by Wieden+Kennedy.  They're part of the creative team behind W+K’s interactive Advent Calendar this year.

You can check out the real world version at the agency's office on Hanbury Street in London.  Each day a new door opens  revealing street objects sourced from the local neighbourhood – but the everyday mundane objects inside have been given a Christmas twist. 

We caught up with Harri last week to find out how things have been going since they picked up their Pencil in London. 

"Everything went really fast after we got home from the Student Awards. We were in contact with a couple of agencies already, but when we got an e-mail from W+K we got really excited, and fortunately we impressed them enough to be here today.  We moved to London on a Monday and started working on Tuesday. We were pretty overwhelmed, because this was our first job in advertising and we had just moved to a new city.

It’s been over 3 months since we started. It still feels like it was yesterday but at the same time it feels like we have been here a lot longer. We have mostly been working on Nokia, among other things we are working on some stuff for their latest phone N900 where we involve users of the device.  It’s been great so far, everyone is really nice and helpful. And now we are just trying to learn as much as possible."

We love to hear how our 'alumni' are getting on.  Let us know if you have an update.
