IKEA

[poliphilo]

The new IKEA in Ashton is proving so popular they have extra police on the streets around it to direct the traffic.

I like IKEA. Good, modern design at affordable prices- it's not just a shop it's a social revolution. 

I like to think- with Dresser and Morris and the Bauhaus people- that good design saves souls. 

If I were having to furnish a house from scratch (and what fun that would be) I'd take my shopping list to IKEA.

i'm currently running a boycott of our local IKEA after a terrible experience there involving a couch that we owned for approximatley 10 minutes. before this last experience (last weekend, we bought a couch and they were rude to us so we returned it even before we left with it...) i'd always loved the place. we'll see how long the ban stays in place, though, as i have a real soft spot for their furniture.
