How sofa planning and living room storage solutions work

IKEA living room storage planning is a free planning service, available both in-store and online. The planning session lasts approximately 45 minutes. You can also create a storage solution for your living room using one of our online planners.

In your session, you'll meet an IKEA expert on sofas and living room storage. You can choose to come to your nearest IKEA store or talk to us online at home. Together, we will organize your living room with a personalized solution that adapts to your space, your needs and your daily life.
Here's how it works:
  1. Inspire herself. Spend some time on explore storage ideas for the living room or start your own design with our planner for living room.
  2. Book an appointment. You can choose to book your appointment online, at an IKEA store or in a Planning Studio.
  3. Measure your space. The IKEA expert will need details about the space. Record height, width and depth measurements as well as the positions/dimensions of electrical outlets, doors, windows, etc.
  4. What do you need? Make a list of your essential needs and wants to create the space of your dreams.
  5. Take pictures. A drawing or a photograph of the space can be very useful.  
  6. Do you need to reschedule/cancel your appointment? Use the link in the confirmation email if you need to reschedule or cancel the session. Please do so at least 1 hour before the scheduled session.
  7. Discuss your dreams and desires with an expert during your session. You will receive a 3D plan and a shopping list with everything you need. The consultation will last approximately 45 minutes.
  8. Take some time to evaluate the design and next steps. You can make changes if necessary by accessing the plan that was sent to you by email. When the final design is complete, visit IKEA, the website or to finalise your order.
