IKEA Home Planner on MacAre you ready? This long-awaited update to IKEA’s Home Planner software supposedly fixes incompatibility with Mac OSX Lion which rolled out nearly six months ago, on July 20, 2011. You needn’t go any farther than the (82 or so) comments on our article about Mac compatibility to see how frustrated the Mac/IKEAfans have been for the last six months. But we’re a persistent bunch…

As reported earlier this week by IKEA Fan, zabsko, the latest version of the IKEA Home Planner finally works on Apple’s latest Macintosh operating system, OSX 10.7.1 and hopefully updates to that.

Read on to find out what else is supported in the latest version of the IKEA Home Planner…

Have you played with the new Mac-Compatible IKEA Home Planner yet?

Tuesday, July 20th, 2010 by Susan

What are you waiting for?! It’s now available for download. Last week when we were in New York, we found that the Brooklyn IKEA has the new Mac-Compatible, web-based IKEA Home Planner loaded on some of the in-store computers in the Kitchen department design area. Last night, bethabax pointed us to the new IKEA planners online on the IKEA US website as of now.

The new IKEA Kitchen Planner and PAX Planners are part of the comprehensive IKEA Home Planner which are only just rolling out in stores in the US for testing right now. You can install it at home (in English, even!) today and play with it. Read our comprehensive article on the features of this planner, plus interviews with one of the team working on the development: IKEA Home Planner Software.

Mac Compatible IKEA Home Planner Launched

Thursday, November 19th, 2009 by Susan

ikea-home-planner-mac-interfaceMac lovers rejoice!  The long awaited Mac compatible IKEA Home Planner has launched in Denmark! Based on 2020 Software, the new planner allows both Macintosh and PC users to design their own kitchens from home, or in the store, save their plans to the IKEA servers or share through email. Customizability has increased tenfold and the options available are incredible.

Thankfully, it’s all in English for those of us who aren’t actually Dutch Danish (edited – thanks jamey015!) Looks to be fairly well documented, though I haven’t been able to download it and try it yet. My laptop is on its last legs, and my new Mac Quad Pro is coming this week – just in time!! w00t! Tons of screenshots and links to resources, articles and interviews with the IKEA Home Planner IT guy after the jump!

New IKEA Home Planner: Sneak Peek Exclusive!

IKEA's new Home Planner Software tool based on 20-20 platform

Actual screenshot from the new IKEA Home Planner Software, yet to be released.

In an interview exclusive to IKEAFANS (w00t!), Jesper M., of IKEA’s IT department in Helsingborg, Sweden, discussed the new home planning software currently in development. Unlike the existing desktop-based planning software, the new IKEA Home Planner is an online planning tool based on 20-20’s Virtual Planner which will be Mac-compatible (edited 9/10/09 for clarity. S.M.). 20-20 Technologies and IKEA announced in July 2008 that their 3-D planner had been selected by IKEA to give customers the ability to design their rooms on the web, but details of the product have been hush-hush until now. (See more screenshots after the jump!)
