Is Kanye West about to collaborate with Ikea?
That’s a question nobody was asking, until Yeezy was snapped at the Swedish mega brand’s design HQ in Älmhult. Something which IKEA itself has confirmed.
“Today Kanye West came by our design department at IKEA of Sweden in Älmhult to explore IKEA and our design,” a statement reads. “At IKEA we are constantly curious about different people, companies, artists and events around the world. To have these connections and inspiring meetings is an important way for us to find new ways to create a better everyday life for the many people.”
There’s been no suggestion this actually means something, but that doesn’t mean the internet isn’t getting excited about it. After all, if anyone can work out how you’re supposed to keep that sofa cover on your Klippan, it’s Kanye.
