How IKEA planning and consultation service works
- Get inspired by spending time on IKEA.ca and playing with all our free online planning tools. Take notes on which styles, colors, products, and ideas you like so it’s easier for us to understand what designs and looks you prefer.
- Choose a need. Do you want help with a particular furniture system? Browse the furnishing areas below to find the planning service you need.
- Book an appointment using the related link below. You can choose an online or in-store appointment.
- Measure and list. We’ll need details about the space or room. Record measurements of height, width, and depth as well as positions/dimensions of electrical outlets, doors, windows, etc. Make a list of your needs.
- Bring your measurements, list of needs, and style notes to the appointment. A drawing or photo of the space is useful, too. We’ll discuss layouts and solutions to create a plan and a shopping list.
- Take time to assess the plan and next steps. Do you need to make changes? Start over? Buy now? When you’re ready, visit us online or in-store to order.
