This new [McDonald’s](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mcdonalds-campaign-1) campaign has been created for the Norway market to encourage consumers to stay at home this winter, while still enjoying their favorite menu items.

The ad features the brand's signature brown paper takeout bag reworked to resemble a house with the simple tagline, 'Order in.' This takes a very simple yet effective approach that was developed in response to the Norwegian market where [McDonald's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mcdonalds-8) customers traditionally eat in the restaurant or in their car.

The new McDonald’s campaign was created by Julie Wilkinson from the Makerie Studio and will be showcased by the brand's ad agency, [Nord DDB Oslo](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mcdonalds-night-posters), in several major cities in the country. The ad plays on cultural knowledge of the McDonald's branding and packaging in order to create a campaign that is both simple yet effective.
