Intimissimi's 'Feel the Billboard' Uses Tactile Advertising

Intimissimi’s Feel the Billboard campaign introduces a tactile approach to outdoor advertising by integrating a real cashmere swatch into street‑level billboards. The installation was placed in high‑traffic pedestrian areas in New York, Brooklyn, and Los Angeles, allowing passersby to physically interact with the Ultralight With Cashmere material. This approach shifts the billboard from a visual medium to a sensory touchpoint, enabling the brand to communicate product quality through direct experience rather than imagery alone. The campaign’s design maintains the brand’s minimalist aesthetic while emphasizing material attributes through physical engagement.

The execution demonstrates how out‑of‑home formats can support experiential marketing by encouraging brief but meaningful interactions in public spaces. By embedding a tangible fabric sample into the billboard structure, Intimissimi creates a moment of discovery that aligns with its focus on softness, warmth, and craftsmanship. The campaign highlights how tactile elements can strengthen brand recall and foster a sense of authenticity in environments typically dominated by digital displays. It also illustrates the potential for sensory cues to deepen consumer connection by transforming routine urban movement into an opportunity for product trial.
