VML commissioned Chloe Hardwick to bring Coca-Cola’s The World Needs More Santas global OOH campaign to life, capturing the true spirit of Christmas with warmth, kindness, and a touch of sparkle.
The campaign inspires small acts of kindness, featuring perfectly chilled Coca-Cola bottles paired with handwritten notes like “Your lights look amazing, neighbour,” all set against the cozy glow of twinkling fairy lights. In Chloe’s signature style, rich, warm tones highlight the magic of Christmas while evoking a sense of nostalgia through Coca-Cola’s iconic red.
