From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.A kitchen company altered perspectives on rows of text to create a subtle yet mind-bending advert in a Colombian newspaper.
Advertisers have been getting more and more creative with newspaper advertising in recent years, realising that sometimes the most striking ads need no colour or slogans at all as was the case with Game of Thrones' dragon shadow in the New York Times.
This effort from HiperCentro Corona is perhaps even more inspired however, making the page seem as though it has a kitchen concealed inside it.
The page of 'classifieds' are entirely fake but look real, as though the company simply bought out a block and skewed their perspectives.
It comes with the tag-line: "The kitchen you are imagining is in HiperCentro Corona."
It may not be the most effective ad in terms of showing off their product range, but it succeeds in capturing a reader's daydreaming state as they turn the pages.
Images of the ad were posted on design website Behance by Sancho BBDO copywriter Felipe Salazar.
