Ikea offers ideas to decorate dorm rooms

February 28th, 2006

Eugene Scott of the Arizona Republic reports on IKEA’s offer to help fix up students’ dorms:

” Few have to use their bedrooms for more than sleeping before going away to
college, so making sure the often-cramped space fulfills the needs of multiple
rooms can be a challenge, especially when there’s a roommate involved.

Arizona State University’s Resident Life Department is turning to Ikea
Tempe to help give incoming freshmen some ideas.

The retailer has
decorated mock dorm rooms to help prospective students see what a room in
McAllister Village, a freshman residence hall opening this fall, could look
like.

“We’re experts in planning in small spaces. We have good design
and good function, so it was nice for students to get an idea on what their room
could be,” said Jackie Terry, an Ikea Tempe spokeswoman.”
