CakeGroup, the media agency recently selected by IKEA to handle their UK marketing, has released a statement regarding the new iPhone app for IKEA UK which is available for FREE Download through the Apple iTunes store. The iPhone application is little more than an online catalog with the ability to zoom and view thumbnails of pages, but hey – who hasn’t wanted an IKEA catalog in her purse from time to time? You can also search for a page number (no keywords) and flip quickly through pages through standard previous/next navigation – handy, but not really a showstopper.
CakeGroup says that IKEA plans to improve the application, but oddly, they’ve stated, “only in conjunction with customers who choose to download it.” Huh? Like, if I don’t find out about it NOW and download it, I won’t be able to get upgrades in the future? That can’t be right…

Inspired by the desire to create personal identity from ubiquitous uniformity, design student Kenyon Yeh (aka Wiyono Sutjipto) hacked IKEA’s inexpensive (£20 / $33) RAST 3-drawer chest of drawers apart and then reassembled the raw materials into four new pieces of furniture in a collection he calls UNIKEA. Says Yeh,
I have assembled the pieces from a standard IKEA flat pack without following the instructions … Instead, I have simply composed the kits into customized furniture to suit my personal preference, adding some new details along the way.
More about Yeh’s background and inspiration as well as individual pictures of all four pieces in the collection, descriptions, prices and how to place an order after the jump!

All the info you need to shop right at IKEA on Black Friday! We’re frankly too tired to put much together tonight, so we’ve just pulled together all the resources we have on IKEA’s Black Friday sales, including ads, mailers, flyers, coupons, and more!
If you’re shopping online on Black Friday, please help us to launch our charitable giving program by clicking through our Clicks for Clucks shop. 50% of all earned revenues from November 24th through December 24th will be donated to Heifer International to help the hungry help themselves throughout the world. Every bit helps, so check out the sites you can shop on (eBay, Amazon, Sears.com, Hotels.com, Travelocity,Buy.com, Dell, OfficeMax, plus many others!), and help us out, won’t you?
Also – feed yourself! Don’t miss out on FREE breakfast at IKEA all weekend long, and $1 meatball plates from 11am until close tomorrow, Friday, November 27th, 2009. Get all the links after the jump! Gobble, gobble!
Thank you all. I’ve seen so many beautiful kitchens and living spaces here on this inspirational forum and I finally get to share mine with all of you that gave me the motivation to work even harder to complete it (at least most of it) once and for all. Thank you, Thank you!!! …

Down to the last two episodes of the season! It’s hard to believe that this season of Easy to Assemble will come to a close on December 9th! However, you can catch all-new episodes in January featuring a mention of IKEAFANS.com! Oh, and the results of that silly competition between Justine Bateman and Illeana Douglas. Everyone knows Illeana is going to win! Don’t agree? Vote!
