Physical, touchable media is being reintroduced to deepen sensory engagement
Trend - Brands are incorporating tactile elements into billboards and posters to create immersive, multi-sensory experiences. From textured surfaces to interactive materials, these physical formats invite touch and smell, transforming passive ad spaces into memorable, hands-on brand encounters.

Insight - As consumers grow increasingly desensitized to purely visual, screen-based advertising, tactile displays offer a powerful way to break through by engaging senses of touch and smell—emotionally resonant and memory-linked triggers. Therefore, by introducing physical or olfactory interaction into public media, brands can spark moments of surprise, curiosity, and deeper cognitive imprinting while encouraging organic sharing of these novel encounters.
Workshop Question - How can your brand use physical interaction to create more memorable consumer touchpoints?
