This clever self-mailing format offers tremendous opportunities for interaction and creativity, as well as lots of real estate for content. Designed and produced by the team at DS Graphics | Universal Wilde, this promotional mailer was designed to show off the installation of a new and versatile piece of print production equipment at their facility.
The mailer uses a creative "aviation" theme and a rolling reveal hybrid format, combined with augmented reality to illustrate the features and benefits of the Konica Minolta KM-1 inkjet press. Great mail!
