Flatpack Empire

Description: IKEA is one of the world's most successful and recognisable global brands, with more than 900 million people in 49 countries visiting its stores. Despite the popularity of self-assembled furniture, it has managed to keep an air of secrecy around its internal operations. In this three part series, cameras explore the world of IKEA across the entire chain of operations, from the design studios to factories and stores, for the very first time. The collaboration between Tom Dixon and IKEA on a new sofa-bed is shown, as is Sara Blomquist's process of devising the "perfect" front-cover image. Later, the cameras follow a team of new managers from Sheffield on a journey to Älmhult, the small Swedish town where the company began, to learn about the company's values and culture.
