A Better World Starts At Home
2018
Commercial work
A big campaign about small changes – and how a bit of blue & yellow can help us all become more green, right from the comfort of our homes.
IKEA wanted to talk about sustainability without sounding like a naggy neighbor. Under the broad thought, ‘A better world starts at home’ we created a series of workshops instore and online that educate and make sustainability fun for the whole family.
The campaign stretched from fridge-leftover cookery classes and ‘The Energy-Saving Olympics, to a haunted house of resurrected vegetables and blanket fort building. Featured here are a couple of my favourite pieces...
(1-10)
Sweet Cotton Dreams
A childrens book that explains where pillows and blankets come from. Part of an instore event called The Sustainable Sleepover, in which parents and children would first build a blanket fort from IKEA’s sustainably-sourced cotton products (using our handy blanket-fort instruction manual) (4), then make an LED night-light, before climbing inside to read our book.
(12-15)
The Accidental Environmentalists
A series of short Instagram films showing that no matter who you are, you’re probably accidentally-environmentally-friendly.

Power in Numbers
The maths is simple: a small change x millions of people = a big difference.
