IKEA Planning studio

So, what is a Planning studio? A Planning studio is a smaller store dedicated to kitchen and bedroom inspiration where you can find home furnishing advice and expertise to help design your ideal space.

There are plenty of creative ideas to discover - from modern, traditional or space-saving kitchens to smart storage solutions and fitted wardrobes, you'll soon be inspired to start designing.

Visit us today to browse the showroom for ideas and inspiration or, if you're ready, book an appointment to start your design with one of our specialist co-workers.

To ensure there is as much space for inspiration as possible there are no items to purchase and take home on the day. For your convenience, purchases made at the Planning studio will be delivered to your home.
