Awesome or Creepy? Dolls Make the Most of Small Spaces in New IKEA UK Ad

IKEA - One Room Paradise

Despite what you may see in TV ads, or real estate show, not all families lives in a large suburban home or spacious downtown condominiums. So, it’s refreshing to see ‘One Room Paradise’, a new ad for IKEA UK, showing how a young mother and son brighten up their small apartment with colourful and useful items from the Swedish company.

However, the mother, son (and babysitter? grandmother, neighbour?) give off a slight creep-factor, thanks to their large plastic doll heads.

As usual, the music choice is spot on. The track is a remake of a song from Aretha Franklin 1964 album Runnin’ Out of Fools, sung by Elayna Boynton. Elayna teamed up with Anthiony Hamilton to perform Freedom, featured on the Django Unchained soundtrack.

The ad was created by Mother London, and directed by Megaforce for Riff Raff Films.
