Have you ever noticed that most of the greatest creative ideas, whether it’s business or design, are so simple and obvious that you wonder why you haven’t thought of it before!
As we mentioned in our previous article (see Brilliant Minimalist Print Ads (PART I)) Leonardo da Vinci once said: “Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication”, and architect Ludwig Mies van der Rohe adopted the motto “Less is more”.
Even after 500 years, Leonardo’s words are true and this rule is still widely used in minimalist design and ad campaigns. It may sound a bit contradictory, but creating simple printed ads often require much more brainpower than the most complicated-looking stuff.
So, without further ado, let’s take a look at some of the best creative ads, and if you like them – don’t forget to check out another post full of clever ads Brilliant Minimalist Print Ads (PART I).
