Now the Swedes are invading Brooklyn, we are everywhere so beware. Well not everywhere but you can imagine thinking swede, when you see a; Volvo, Sony Ericsson Cellphone, SAAB, H&M, Hard Bread, Meatballs and of course IKEA.
Now its time to invade Brooklyn, and we do it with pride, thats why we placed a 20×20 feet packing box as a showroom to get those Brooklyners lined up for the opening, well i’ve heard rumors that people will camp outside, even more fanatic than the Apple fans.

Queueing? Brooklyners are too polite. In London, we had a riot because IKEA was selling sofas for £50. People needed hospital treatment, and the store had to close after about 10 minutes. IKEA MADNESS.

Wow, that’s really good marketing on IKEA’s part. I have to say that I’ve always loved IKEA’s furniture- my sofa, medicine cabinet, shelf unit, and lamps are all from there. They make good stuff.
H&M is awesome too, but unfortunately there are very few stores in the L.A area. When I went to Berlin it was like there was one on every block.

i’m still waiting for IKEA homes to invade the US, $25,000-$40,000, 1-2 bedroom home. I just hope it’s LEEDS spec’d, which it will probably surpass.
