Turning a piece of Danish Gen Z slang into a campaign for Burger King.

Role: Concept & Design

Scope: Advertisement & creative concept for Burger King.

“BMO” is short for bolle med ost — Danish slang for “bun with cheese,” which sounds exactly like “cheeseburger.” The campaign embraces the nickname instead of avoiding it, inviting Burger King to claim the joke as their own: “Den bedste BMO er flammegrillet.” (“The best BMO is flame-grilled.”) The idea taps into how humor and shared language shape cultural relevance. By speaking the way young Danes actually talk, the campaign makes Burger King feel both local and self-aware.
