Lovers of IKEA stuff have reasons to rejoice, for IKEA recently announced construction of living units dubbed BOKLOK.
For those not very familiar with IKEA, this is a Swedish privately-held (controlled by the Kamprad family), international home products retailer which is popular for its stylish, well-designed yet economically priced products, including flat pack furniture, accessories, bathrooms and kitchens in more than 231 retail stores in 24 countries.
BOKLOK, translated from Swedish, means ‘live smart’. The concept of this Live Smart @ Home homes is based on customers’ needs and wishes - a safe environment, spaciousness and access to green space. If you are wondering what will be special about theses BOKLOK homes, well apart from the fact that they are being pioneered by IKEA, these homes will have an open-plan layout, high ceilings and large windows, thus giving the rooms a light, airy and modern-day feel.
If you want to take a look at these $260,000 apartments, then you can do so very soon, since work on the first block of apartments at St James Village in Felling, UK is nearing completion. Go ahead, take a look and get a feel of how your dream home will look like.
