IKEA's iconic blue bag dubbed the FRAKTA bag is a notable motif to its brand image and has been reimagined in a plethora of variants. This includes keychains, hats, and many other accessories. The latest to celebrate the bag is a large statue that stands at an impressive 19 feet and will be displayed at Millennium Park in Chicago.
The spacious blue bag will be dotted with QR codes that will prompt an augmented-reality animation that is accessed on smartphones. They will see IKEA products come flying out of the large bag with the opportunity to unlock special deals afterward. It is powered by the new Aero Geospatial system by Adobe complete with 3D AR experiences.
