Svedka Vodka's sexy fembot certainly brightened L.A.'s skyline this past year with her oddly alluring robotic form and almost endless witty taglines. So raise your glass to the well deserved winner of the BAB Award for Best Drinks Billboard.

Other strong contenders in this category included Skyy Vodka's billboards and Heineken's fun beer ads.
BEST BILLBOARD INSTALLATION 2011

The BAB Award for billboard that really made Daily Billboard go 'wow' in 2011 was this 3D installation for Universal Studios Hollywood's King Kong attraction.

Not only does the creative have amazing impact with and without the passenger mannequins hanging from the billboard, but it was also replicated in multiple locations around L.A. rather than solely in one high traffic area, sharing the excitement for lots of passersby.

This billboard beat off tough competition including the living billboard installation for Arthur Christmas, The Vampire Diaries season three beating heart billboard and not forgetting the illuminated headlights featured on the billboard for The Green Hornet at the start of 2011.

And there you have it, it's been an exciting year in the cities' skies. What do you think of Daily Billboard's choices this year?

Let's hope 2012 provides as many visual delights.

DUO DAY: Beau Joie champagne billboards...

Beau Joie Own the Knight billboard
There's nothing like a glass of champagne to ring in the New Year, so here's two billboards from Beau Joie to toast the end of 2011 and welcome 2012.

This relatively new luxury champagne comes in a special copper suit of armour, hence the slightly corny 'Own the Knight' creative.

The 'Knight' version was snapped on July 1 and the second billboard featuring the Brut and Brut Rosé bottles was captured in the same location, along Sunset Boulevard at La Brea Avenue, later this year on October 26, 2011.

Happy New Year's Eve. Enjoy the day's festivities however you chose to celebrate it.

UPDATED: Interestingly it looks like Beau Joie decided to see in the New Year with a new billboard creative. This 'Award yourself' ad was snapped in the same location as the previous versions on January 5, 2012.

FESTIVE WEEK: Coca-Cola Arctic Home polar bear billboards...

Coca-Cola polar bear billboardThose keeping their eyes open for Coca-Cola's jolly Santa billboards this year may be a bit disappointed, but Coke seems to want to do its bit for a worthy cause instead this Christmas and help polar bears in the wild (who are often featured in their holidays advertising).

These festive Arctic Home billboards still do a great job of screaming Coca-Cola, with the familiar red and white colours making the brand instantly recognizable.

The 'Hope into home' creative was snapped along Ventura Boulevard in Studio City, whilst the 'Home for the Holidays' version was photographed at Highland and Franklin Avenues on December 5, 2011.

If you do miss the traditional Christmas ads though, check out these Coke Santa billboards from 2010, 2009 and 2008.
