LETTER THEFT
HORNBACH


















It was one of the great mysteries of 2022: Overnight, letters began to disappear from the signboards of HORNBACH markets all over Europe. One by one letters reappeared in the most unexpected places – German Twitch streams, Czech poetry slams, even Swedish music videos. And fueled an impassioned debate all over the web: Was HORNBACH behind it? Or something even bigger? A documentary short eventually revealed the culprits: a gang of creative renegades, claiming the letters as symbols of creativity. Proven by a campaign that wasn’t just broadcast but shaped together with fans.
