The new Viagra ad has a tag line that reads "See the world differently." The advertisement features the form of a bed on everyday objects, such as [cars and countertops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/where-have-you-been). It's obvious that they want people to start exploring their options.

The Viagra ad is quite brilliant and creative; one of the most [clever ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/in-the-raw) I have seen in a while. It was created by the [advertising agency](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/axe-campaign) M&C Saatchi in Auckland, New Zealand.

**Implications** - The use of intelligent design to create controversial and comical advertising will help companies reach younger markets. By creating a subtle and discreetly controversial advertising campaign, a business can garner attention from curious consumers, while ensuring their reputation is not tainted by over-the-top controversy.
