For those who love shopping at IKEA, I can almost predict your new home, literally:
“The living room will be display set no. 1132, bedrooms 1, 2, and 3 will be display sets 142 in colours of sky blue, rosy pink and sunny yellow respectively. The kitchen will be display kitchen no. 435 with a change of the wood to rubrick… As for the wall deco, we’ll have mass produced prints of a path flanked on both sides with trees during autumn…”
Anyway, after all the hype about the newly opened IKEA megamall at Tampines, I thought it’d be really HUGE… Perhaps I have been spoilt by those megamalls in the Philippines which are MEGA indeed, but I was quite disappointed with IKEA today, it was tiny! The restaurant and cafe were great though, there are finally enough seats!
But if IKEA was a slight disappointment, Courts was a horror! With furniture dating back to fur and wool and heavy dark wood… And a layout that is just so confusing you might just want to give up browsing…
I think we should have another brand to rival IKEA, before the whole of SG becomes ‘IKEA-sized’!
