IKEA’s House in a Box
Found this interesting article some time back but didn’t get to post it up until now.
IKEA, that furniture megastore that everybody loves, has previously successfully launched a series of pre-fabricated apartment homes that come out of a box, just like their popular furnishings. It’s cheap, and easy to install (i bet a lot of allen key screws are involved…!)

They are now planning to launch this product in UK, called ‘BokLok’ (smart living). It looks interesting, although it probably won’t work in warm countries like Malaysia. Read all about here.




Why it will not work in warm countries like Malaysia?

the heat, rain and humidity will damage the timber a lot faster than in temperate countries. it’s like leaving your ikea furniture outdoors.
