Social Campaign, 2024
“YuruTequila” is a summer campaign to promote slow, relaxed drinking (Japanese word “yuru~” means relaxed) with Cuervo tequila as the base of Japanese-style cocktails.
Embracing “Yuru” as the concept, we envisioned an art direction that gives softness through light and edges, warmth of summer, and the iconic vibrance of Cuervo brand!
