IKEA, the Swedish home furnishing brand, has launched a new integrated campaign in India, the second in the series of the creative platform - “Home is where it all begins”, across television, OOH and digital channels.

The Covid-19 pandemic has made the home the epicentre of everything we do and pushed us to re-evaluate how living spaces are utilised, more than ever before.

The television commercial highlights that being a family is not just about having a meal together or other fun times, it’s also about partnering with each other to navigate through the changes and the milestones a family crosses.

Amitabh Pande, Marketing Head, IKEA India says “More than ever, our homes have become our entire world. The home is the source of who we are, what we do, and where we are heading in our lives. ‘Home is where it all begins’ campaign in the series speaks to one of the most important changes in the living situation of a family - coming of a new baby, and that too during the time of pandemic. When both parents are working (from home), and there is very little help, the only way is for everyone to pitch in.”
