Recycle Now Adverts


These are two adverts from the Recycle Now campaign by Stephan Owen, a Graphic Design student at Stockport College. Recycling and green issues are hot topics at the moment which means that the adverts can some times look a bit ‘me to’ – using the same elements such as the colour green or a large statistic. Instead Owen has produced simple illustrations that communicate a fairly complex idea in clever and fast way (the light bulb with a bottle in says that recycling one glass bottle saves enough energy to power a 60W light bulb for 500 hours and the zip says that recycling 25 plastic bottles will make one fleece).

Really like these daverts. The light bulb one does remind me of a recent Grolsch campaign for the "Green Light District".
