IKEA has announced a Design Studio will be opening at Masonville Place mall.
It is one of three new locations that will allow customers to “design and order complex home furnishing systems for the kitchen, bath, bedroom and living room” through one-on-one sessions with IKEA experts.
Much smaller than a regular IKEA store, the Design Studio will have a small selection of product samples on display, but will not sell products or food.
The London location is expected to open in late October or early November. The Design Studio is a short-term concept and will be open for a period of 12-18 months.
