The Work is Mysterious and Important

IKEA captures the moment.

A brilliant social activation by IKEA. A simple social post with the iconic Severance set design, haunting soundtrack, and IKEA products.

The inspiration came out of IKEA India. Australia followed suit by reposting. Then IKEA USA posted on Instagram yesterday. Glad to see a smart creative concept get the exposure it deserves.

At least one company-State Farm-did a full partnership with Severance including advertising. But to me, the IKEA move feels more pure and authentic. A marketing win.

If only they sold the green wall-to-wall carpet. IKEA, celebrate with a Choreography and Merriment moment. Kier would be proud.
