February 2, 2010 by Liz

This beautiful 30-second ad commissioned by IKEA, produced by the Hamburg agency Grabarz & Partner shows beauty doesn’t have to be expensive. At a time when many brands are focusing on volume and discounts, IKEA has deliberately used a calm 30-second advert to showcase the power of the brand.

A great message for these times — a tribute to the humble tea light..

Tealights are a small item staple to IKEA’s offer in line with their philosophy that elegance and beauty don’t have to be expensive, boring, or pretentious.

‘You don’t need a great deal of money to make your world more beautiful, just a bit of IKEA – that’s the IKEA philosophy in a nutshell,’ explains Claudia Willvonseder, IKEA’s Marketing Manager. ‘The tea light is one of several IKEA icons, and is a small-scale reminder of everything that IKEA does in a larger context,’ she adds.

I find this ad worth watching again and obviously worth passing on.

What is a small scale reminder of everything that is your brand?
