RED PASSION
WE WERE ASKED TO REDEFINE THE RED PASSION CONCEPT, MAKING IT UNIQUE AND UNMISTAKABLE ALL AROUND THE WORLD.
The goal was to move away once and for all from ‘Red Passion’ intended as a physical, sensual and sexual concept, as it has often been interpreted over the past few years.
THE NEW RED PASSION
The new red passion is the one that drives you towards creation. It is an urge, impossible to ignore. It’s a fire that burns inside, which only a few people are able to direct towards an outstanding creation.
WHO WE TALK TO | WHO WE TALK THROUGH
THE PASSIONERS
THEY ARE NOT NECESSARILY CREATIVES OR ARTISTS. THEY ARE DRIVEN BY AN UNSTOPPABLE YET PLEASURABLE PASSION.
