CHINA. Today we offer a singular but standout image. It comes from JCDecaux Joint Venture General Manager Yoann El Jaouhari, who shared this striking Out of Home media execution – a campaign that literally reaches new heights – on LinkedIn

At Shanghai Hongqiao Private Jet Terminal, Italian luxury house Prada has transformed the terminal roof into a giant 4,000sq m branding canvas.

The installation, equivalent in size to around 50 badminton courts, stars Chinese supermodel Liu Wen and forms part of Prada’s latest high-impact OOH campaign. It was delivered by SAMDecaux in Shanghai, the joint venture between Shanghai Airport Authority, JCDecaux, Pearl & Dean and Shanghai Momentum.

The campaign reflects the increasing appetite among luxury brands for larger-than-life storytelling in China with airports emerging as powerful stages for high-impact brand visibility.

As El Jaouhari noted: “When the sky is your limit, you come to us – and we make your wildest ideas fly.”
