IKEA launches first virtual interior design service

Available for the first time, IKEA Australia has launched a new, Virtual Interior Design Service to help Australians create their dream home with an interior designer, without having to leave their sofa.  And for a limited time, it’s free!

The service will let customers from anywhere across Australia, connect with the expertise of IKEA interior designers. Customers can book online sessions with a member of the virtual interior design team, who will work with them to design spaces within their home. There are two options available:

Design Advice – This 30-minute session will be free for a limited time and involves an online meeting with an interior designer who will provide advice on various aspects including range, colours, textiles and storage, in addition to tips and tricks or additional services that are available e.g. home delivery or assembly services.  

Basic Design Package, $79 – This 60-minute session with an interior designer, involves an online meeting that focusses on developing a personalised, singular solution for a space in the home. In addition to the advice provided in the free session, customers will receive a product collage and materials, a product list and a visual outline of their suggested solution, making it easy to implement straight away. 

The service joins the other virtual service offerings from IKEA, including Kitchen and PAX Wardrobe planning where customers are provided professional planning consultation, free of charge.  

Christine Gough, Head of Interior Design, IKEA Australia said, “At IKEA, we believe home is the most important place in the world.  We understand the essential role it plays, and as leaders in life at home, through sharing our knowledge we want to help as many Australians as possible to live a better everyday life.  

“We know that everyone is unique and that is why the members of our Australian, virtual interior design team are here to help our customers figure out what they need, when they need it, and where they need it. Our consultants have extensive knowledge and genuine enthusiasm for home furnishing and design. Each one of them is equipped and excited to help customers bring their dream home to life.” 

Within the initial launch phase, the number of sessions available will be limited, with a view to expanding its availability in the future.
