I like the way Ikea looks in a store or on blogs, but for my home, "clean modern" just doesn't look comfortable or inviting. But these pictures help me see how I can make Ikea work for me and not scream "Ikea" as soon as someone looks at my room.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08207846459803680724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5757733747822094075.post-82269545125364302052010-06-25T08:47:12.146-07:002010-06-25T08:47:12.146-07:00I like it.

I love their furniture (and the prices are incredible), but I always wished for something a bit softer and more ethereal. This is it!! And I love, love, love the wedding look in the first few pictures. How elegant and simple, but not paper-napkin looking. I am always a fan of simplistic elegance that doesn't break the bank!The Fat Kidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02749007638553751050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5757733747822094075.post-41535770949849847382010-06-24T16:07:51.701-07:002010-06-24T16:07:51.701-07:00This is IKEA??!!

However, I do love love love how they have styled these photos. Definitely a little more rough, a little vintage-y, definitely a little more anthro. I'm loving the outdoor space with the blues and greens. I'm a TOTAL SUCKER for blue glass reminiscent of blue mason jars though.Katehttp://thechicchickadee.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5757733747822094075.post-25791332800050702112010-06-24T12:43:38.529-07:002010-06-24T12:43:38.529-07:00i dunno...looks like alot of the same ikea stuff t...i dunno...looks like alot of the same ikea stuff to me, just 'dressed up' a little differently. but that's what i like about ikea--it translates into many different styles, depending on your vision.<br />beautiful rooms all in all, though!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15438982905074697491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5757733747822094075.post-25756535778588887002010-06-24T12:39:11.556-07:002010-06-24T12:39:11.556-07:00I have mixed feelings about this.

They shouldn't try to be anything else, I say.

But the second from the last is also great. I think it's good that Ikea is branching out. I love there stuff, but I often feel the same way: same furniture (or other) but slightly different in styled in another modern, usually cute, but expected way. I think it's good for them to realize that there are more ways they can use and style the pieces that they already have. As for my home, I know that a lot of the ways they portray their goods are a little too...modern for me. I like a more rustic feeling and I love that they are branching out! thanks for sharing thisDana Bradshawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14973515790101606199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5757733747822094075.post-91928126900111234712010-06-24T11:41:22.805-07:002010-06-24T11:41:22.805-07:00I love going to Ikea, and I'm really surprised...I love going to Ikea, and I'm really surprised that these area from them. The first three pictures are my favorite. A lot of my bedroom furniture is Ikea, and while it looks great, treat it gently...the fiberboard just isn't that strong. I love their dishes and decorating pieces though.Kelseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07679844664166206387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5757733747822094075.post-24917764717833070662010-06-24T11:37:40.264-07:002010-06-24T11:37:40.264-07:00I love that first place setting.

They just may be onto something which would attract a whole new audience. It kind of goes against the IKEA "We sell everything in this image/room" deal though.Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10043137111671552648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5757733747822094075.post-10032145773639350352010-06-24T10:30:57.915-07:002010-06-24T10:30:57.915-07:00I love this! i wish ikea wasn't so far from wh...I love this! i wish ikea wasn't so far from where i live. huzzah for anthrokeapology! i think i'll be planning a venture to it soon..... :DPolexiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05636430811210204427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5757733747822094075.post-53323747483676320232010-06-24T10:08:00.228-07:002010-06-24T10:08:00.228-07:00I'm totally digging the yellow/purple horse ba...I'm totally digging the yellow/purple horse barn room.

I think it's a great ad compaign for people like me who have a hard time envisioning how to dress a room. I like it! (Plus, anthro styling at ikea prices... not too shabby.)
