IKEA Creates An “Open Source Furniture System” With Designer Tom Dixon
IKEA fans have been “hacking” how they use the furniture for a long time to create exactly what they want. Now IKEA is helping them do it through a collaboration with designer Tom Dixon called Delaktig. The concept is essentially an aluminum frame that can be built into a bed, sofa, chair and other types of furniture.
The entire effort is an extreme example of personalization that we will likely start to see from even more retailers.
