      Annie Leibovitz joins up with Ikea for ‘dream project’ about family life

      news.movim.eu / TheGuardian · Wednesday, 28 February - 16:02

    Project was ‘so powerful and emotional’, photographer says, with results showcased during Paris fashion week

    She’s the photographer to the stars whose portraits have graced the covers of high-end glossies from Vogue to Vanity Fair, so when Annie Leibovitz announced her latest collaboration would be with Ikea, well, there was a lot to unpack.

    Approached by the homeware giant during the pandemic, Leibovitz described the role as “a dream project for someone like myself”, apparently less to do with her love of affordable homeware (although she will be buying a niece some Ikea plates for a wedding present) and more the theme of the project – family.

    I've set up dozens of smart home gadgets across two homes and two apartments over the last five years. I have a mental list of brands I revere and brands from which nothing shall ever be purchased again. In my current abode, you can stand in one place and be subject to six different signal types bouncing around, keeping up the chatter between devices.

    What can I say? I'm a sucker for a certain kind of preparedness and creativity. The kind that's completely irrelevant if the power goes out.

    When I started at Ars in the summer of 2022, the next generation of smart home standards was on the way . Matter, an interoperable device setup and management system, and Thread, a radio network that would provide secure, far-reaching connectivity optimized for tiny batteries. Together, they would offer a home that, while well-connected, could also work entirely inside a home network and switch between controlling ecosystems with ease. I knew this tech wouldn't show up immediately, but I thought it was a good time to start looking to the future, to leave behind the old standards and coalesce into something new.

      Vintage Ikea furnishings fetch £32,000 at auction in Stockholm

      news.movim.eu / TheGuardian · Tuesday, 19 December - 15:07

    Furniture and homewares from the 50s to 90s are coming to be recognised as collector’s items

    A selection of 122 secondhand Ikea furnishings fetched a total of £32,000 at an auction in Stockholm on Monday night, as some of the cheap and cheerful flatpack retailer’s more unusual designs are coming to be recognised as collector’s items.

    Vintage furnishings that went under the hammer at Stockholms Auktionsverk, the world’s oldest auction house, included tableware, furniture, mirrors and lights. While many of the auctioned items dated back to the 1950s, when Ikea still manufactured its furniture in Sweden, the collection also included porcelain tableware that the retailer developed in collaboration with Stockholm’s National Museum in the 1990s.

    RIP! Also the vegan hot dog prices have doubled. 🫤

    Seems like it was replaced by this charge park next to it - one of the most expensive providers on the market. Probably some nice flow of money for Ikea involved.
