Campaign Summary
INTRODUCTION
Romania's carmaker Dacia is a well-established supporter of literature and reading, as main sponsor of Gaudeamus, the most important book fair in the country. But Dacia also publishes a book almost nobody ever reads. The car owner's manual.
IDEA
To get people to finally take the time to learn more about their cars, Dacia launched the "Alternative Manual ". The first owner's manual that makes useful car information fun for the reader.
STORY
A team of writers and designers reinvented the standard textbook as a mix of poetry, prose, and illustrations. Creating a handbook that still covers all the essential chapters like "Keys", "Children's Security" or "Seatbelts", but finally makes them a captivating read. The Alternative Manual presents the standard car content, but in a a variety of literary genres, spanning from science-fiction to Russian drama and modern poetry, and illustrated accordingly.
