IKEA Cheras

The brief was to get Malaysians to come down to a new IKEA store in an area called Cheras in Malaysia. Using a catchy tune and unmistakably IKEA puns, we created a song so infectious - no one would ever forget the new store location.

We shot a music video which ran online as well as 30 seconders on national TV.

Press and OOH, meticulously crafted for each ad in 3 different languages.
