A team at Lisbon-based monthly magazine Grande Reportagem came up with a chain e-mail campaign that uses the flags of eight different national flags to show relevant issues particular to each country.

In a statement to BrazilianArtists.net Brasilian-born Icaro Doria says:
“We started to research relevant, global, and current facts and, thus, came up with the idea to put new meanings to the colours of the flags. We used real data taken from the websites of Amnesty International and the UN.”
Although, some comments from adland users dispute the validity of the data I have to agree with one comment that it really doesn’t matter about the accuracy – the statement has been made in a very emotional way and that’s what counts.
I think the idea and execution of this project is outstanding; remeniscent of the work of Tibor Kalman, Sagmeister, and the like. Here’s a link to view all eight pieces.
