IKEA Teases Its Potential Collaboration With Virgil Abloh
For the Swedish brand’s Democratic Design Days event.
On June 7, IKEA will hold its Democratic Design Days event, where the Swedish company will allow the public to get a closer and more detailed look into its designs and products. While the collaboration partners to appear and speak at the event are currently a secret, HYPEBEAST was able to get the exclusive on one of the upcoming persons, represented by the silhouette above. The individual, who many will speculate as Virgil Abloh of OFF-WHITE, speaks candidly about his approach to creation and the idea at its core.
The event will be held in Älmhult, Sweden and will be live-streamed on June 7, 3:30 p.m. CET at ikea.today/ddd. The Democratic Design Days event follows closely to the growing trend of re-fabricating and recycling IKEA’s iconic FRAKTA bag for style purposes — read more about the trend here.
