Create do-it-yourself ideas for Ferrero Rocher
SELECTED ARTIST ANNOUNCEMENT:
There were so many great DIY concepts made of the empty Ferrero Rocher 16 box, we really enjoyed looking through all the submissions!
Ferrero Rocher has officially chosen their selections, congratulations to the Selected Artists Merel van Brakel, Matija Fudurić and Roos Koene.
Please note that only with the start of the Ferrero Rocher campaign beginning next year 2019, all submissions will become visible to the public.
Sincerely,
Talenthouse Team
Ferrero Rocher is one of the most loved sweets in the world. At the centre of the praline lies a perfectly roasted hazelnut, surrounded by a luscious, smooth filling and a delicate crisp wafer, all enveloped in creamy milk chocolate and finely chopped hazelnuts. Each exquisite chocolate is wrapped in luxurious, golden foil and comes in a transparent box. Ferrero Rocher makes a tasteful gift and a welcome addition to any gathering.
Ferrero Rocher is inviting artists from around the world to create do-it-yourself ideas on how the empty transparent plastic box of Ferrero Rocher pralines can be reused in a clever and creative way. Create a step-by-step instruction for a do-it-yourself upcycling object made using the empty transparent box.
The Ferrero Rocher Marketing Team is looking for enterprising ideas that are easy to recreate and useful. Artists are encouraged to use different materials in combination with the box.
Artists may submit static visuals or animated visuals (of their step-by-step instruction). Before submitting your idea, please read the 'Things to consider' section below, and take a look at the mood board for inspiration.
Ferrero Rocher will select up to three do-it-yourself upcycling objects that will be potentially showcased on Ferrero Rocher’s Golden Inspiration website. Additionally, the selected ideas will be rewarded with €2,000 each.
Things to consider
- Invent a creative do-it-yourself object that is useful and can be created using one (or several) empty transparent family boxes (for 16 pieces).
- Your idea can be for all areas of life e.g. at home, at work, for beauty or on the move.
- Ideas should be perfectly simple and comprehensible for everyone to build the do-it-yourself object.
- Choose a creative method that illustrates how the do-it-yourself object can be built. Either use static visuals (e.g. photography, drawing, illustration, etc.) or animated visuals (e.g. digital animation, stop motion, video or other film techniques) for your step-by-step instruction.
- Here you can find the high-res files of the transparent box.
- You may want to use different materials in combination with the transparent box (e.g. cardboard, paper, wood, paint, glitter, fabric, velvet, plush, sequins). Please make sure not to display or use any other brand-name products such as scissors, glue or any other products due to legal usage rights.
- Submissions should stay within Ferrero Rocher’s Golden Inspiration Color Palette of: white, gold, mint green, dark brown, black. No-Go’s are: red, orange, pink, purple, blue, silver or bronze.
- Artists are encouraged to use the provided high res images for their visualisation or buy a Ferrero Rocher Family Box (the costs will not be reimbursed).
- Please note that Ferrero Rocher is only looking for do-it-yourself objects that are made of the Family Box with 16 pieces.
- Take a look at this mood board for inspiration.
- Submissions should not include images of people or display other brands.
The Transparent box
Ferrero Rocher became an icon of affordable luxury within chocolate confectionery thanks to its strong visual identity: the inimitable golden wrapper, the distinctive paper cup and the transparent innovative box. Indeed this plastic box, which enables the content to be completely visible, surprised consumers and revolutionized the boxed chocolate market in the 80's. Since then slight changes have been made to the box over time, but always remaining faithful to its original style.
About Ferrero Rocher
Ferrero Rocher offers a unique taste experience of contrasting layers: a whole crunchy hazelnut in the heart, a delicious creamy hazelnut filling, a crisp wafer shell covered with chocolate and gently roasted pieces. And thanks to its inimitable golden wrapper Ferrero Rocher is even more unique and special. Take the time to savor it and share more of life's golden pleasures together. Together with Ferrero Rocher.
