Case study

# Air Liquide

The space between. A campaign that made the invisible toll of untreated sleep apnea visible, the quiet distance it creates between couples, even when they share a bed.

01 Strategy

## Sleep apnea doesn’t just disrupt sleep. It disrupts connection.

Untreated sleep apnea is more than a medical condition, left unchecked, it quietly erodes patience, emotional engagement, and the shared moments that hold couples together.

The campaign targeted this unseen gap directly, aiming to evoke empathy in both sufferers and partners and make the case for treatment feel personal, not clinical.

02 Identity

## A metaphor built to make an invisible condition visible.

The space  
between.

03 Messaging

## A metaphor you could see, and feel.

Poignant imagery and film depicted couples lying in bed, feet apart yet miles apart, dramatizing the emotional distance sleep apnea creates.

Real couples shared their own experiences on camera, grounding the metaphor in lived testimony and giving viewers permission to see themselves in the story.

04 Activation

## From a medical issue to a relationship issue.

The campaign drove significant engagement across platforms, with healthcare providers reporting an increase in sleep apnea consultations following launch.
