Challenge HSBC wanted to wish Chinese Americans a Happy Lunar new year. But messages from brands around this holiday are full of clichéd imagery and messages. Inspiration Red is considered the luckiest color of the Lunar New Year but there’s thousands of shades of red. We set out to prove that there was one shade that was luckier or more prevalent than all the others. Idea We evaluated 18,000 pieces of Asian Art collected by partnering with the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco to determine “The Luckiest Red”. We then shared that colour with AAPI artist to craft work for Asian Heritage Month.
