Congratulations to the Selected Creators and everyone who participated!

Talenthouse and Bombay Sapphire Team

This new campaign from Bombay Sapphire will showcase the creative inspiration that exists in everyday moments and will demonstrate how people can reframe their world to find more creativity. 

Bombay Sapphire believes the world is a gallery. And creative inspiration is everywhere and can be found in everything. To examine this idea, we’re inviting creators from all over the world to show us what everyday moments inspire them. And what it inspired. What they saw, and what they made.

Something that on the surface, can seem unnoticeable but inspire something beautiful. The project will reveal what creators see and demonstrate how people can reframe their worldview. Proving that creativity isn't about what you see, but more about how you see it.

The ask is to ‘Show us what you see’. An open invitation to creators just like you to share images or videos on what you SAW out in the real world that then inspired what you MADE. What you MADE will also need to be delivered in a corresponding image or video format.

Read the full brief below to see more details of what we are looking for!

They want to see your creativity and are going to be selecting 10 pieces of work that will be chosen as Selected Creators and receive £1,000 each.


Things to Consider
  • Create static or video pieces of work which showcase both the ‘SAW’ and the ‘MADE’ of Saw this, Made this
  • SAW THIS, MADE THIS is a mechanic where people are encouraged to share what inspired them to create something. It’s everything you see in the day-to-day. For example, a beautiful feather inspired a dress, and a raindrop on a window inspired a painting
  • If you have images or videos of the creative process please also include this; however, it is not mandatory
  • We are happy for the work submitted to be new or it can be existing work that you have done (if it has a 'SAW' this that can be attached)
  • It is important to capture both the 'SAW' (inspiration) and the 'MADE' (the creative output) when submitting. The inspiration which leads to the creative is just as important as the creative itself
  • Bombay Sapphire would like the work to be exquisite and inspiring!
  • Be inspired by the Bombay Sapphire colour palette & this moodboard
  • You can also use the Bombay Sapphire fonts, logos, and patterns in this asset pack if you like. However, it is not mandatory to use logos, the bottle etc. in your work


  • In your video and static submissions you are welcome to use the SAW this and MADE this templates. This is not mandatory
  • Keep in mind your submissions should be suitable for Bombay Sapphire's social channels. Bombay will create a piece of content that shows your creation with their branding and SAW THIS MADE THIS framing device (you do not need to include this). This will then be posted on your channel and Bombay Sapphire's using the #SawThisMadeThis hashtag
  • In the 'SAW this' part of your submission, please try not to include existing art or landmarks that may be subject to IP and copyright issues
    • Bombay Sapphire is looking for submissions that are more inspired by everyday things in life that inspire you e.g. a waterfall, bag of rubbish, fabrics
  • If you wish to depict drinks or cocktails in your submission, please always show drinks as full and containing ice. No images of straws, please. Also, bottles should be sealed if not in use and never show free pouring
  • You should not show or imply drunkenness, that the brand has curative or therapeutic properties, irresponsible drinking, dangerous situations, anything offensive, including any people under the age of 25 or any other brands in your artwork
  • Please don't share your submitted work online, on social media or in your portfolio, until you have been given confirmation
What and How to submit my work?

  • In your submission we want to see:
    • The inspiration behind your artwork (SAW this) e.g patterns / textures / shapes / colour combinations / nature / architecture / street signs / bricks
    • The final creative output (MADE this) e.g art / photography / sculpture / textiles / cocktails
      • Remember this can be existing or original work. It also does not need to include Bombay Sapphire logos or the bottle.
  • This is what you should be submitting to the brief:

      • MADE this part: x1 static or video piece of your finished creations

      • Please can you submit both parts in the same format (e.g. static + static or video + video) and at the same time to ensure we can see the SAW this and MADE this together
