Please tell us how the brand purpose inspired the work

Because of IKEA's low prices, Norwegians tend to see IKEA furniture as disposable. Every year in Norway alone, we throw away more than 3 million pieces of furniture. Which is a lot, when you think about the fact that we have a total population of 5,4 million people. In order for IKEA to become credible for Norwegians when talking about their measures towards a more sustainable profile, we knew we first had to address the elephant in the room. To change people’s perception of IKEA furniture as disposable, we made The Trash Collection 2021. We went out and found actual IKEA trash, gave it a wash and a few spare parts, and sold it as a new collection at IKEA. The collection was heroed in a brutally honest outdoor campaign. The copy led you to an IKEA website that told you how you can take better care of your furniture.
