About the Work

As an immersive outdoor design idea that helped the visually impaired community, #BeTheirEyes was the first of its kind. Using mobile and social technology, the campaign translated social photo descriptions (from Instagram) into printed braille stickers. And placed them back in the ambient settings where they were shot—creating unique curated touchpoints all over Hong Kong, specially tailored for visually impaired people to feel, explore and experience. This had never been done before. Samsung then donated $10 to Hong Kong Blind Union for every photo posted. #BeTheirEyes not only helped more people see, one snap at a time. It changed people’s perception about our brand—building not just respect but also an emotional connection for what we stood for.
