Why is this work relevant for Brand Experience & Activation?

IKEA always think about everybody even kids But what about NO LONGER KIDS BUT NOT ADULTS YET. There are 12 to 16 years old. IKEA decided to give in the hands of NO LONGER KIDS (teens) new product launch. We asked them to tell us their needs and preferences in rooms design and interiors. And to help to create a new section on ikea website named “NO LONGER KIDS ROOM”. They should choose the products relevant only for them. IKEA gave them the Instagram page to tell about the project. NO LONGER KIDS helped us to create a new section.
