MINI Makes Minimalistic Mess

Somehow lots of big, fat, black magic markers versus one slim, green pen are supposed to convey the notion of Mini’s minimalism. To us, all it does is make is make a big, confusing mess.

We don’t get the logic. The big (bad) black pens help draw the car. That’s a good thing. The small (good) green pen annotate what the black pens have built. To us, it look like happy team work. Not the David and Goliath battle MINI would like it to be.
