NZI and FCB pen poems of pure evil for business-hampering inanimate objects

Last year, NZI and FCB told the tale of a cursed chair wreaking havoc on various businesses in a fictional animated town called Port Avon. The primary focus was for the brand to get noticed and, more importantly, liked—and all in one of the dullest, least-engaging categories possible. They succeeded and ‘Devil’s Chair’ became one of New Zealand’s most popular TV commercials. But, as the ad says, bad’s not going anywhere, and the evil has spread to other inanimate workplace objects. 

In a series of three print ads, NZI and FCB have embraced the seemingly unending appeal of the faces in things phenomenon and also developed poems about the dastardly plans of the devil’s chair, the wicked water cooler and the ghastly gas torch. 

Perhaps the shenanigans in the Christchurch insurance office were all the result of a possessed desk.
