IKEA SOUTHAMPTON
Key to IKEA’s success is the creation of an efficient use of space, which clearly separates the store, its circulation and customer car parking. The building provides a link between the existing town centre and proposed harbour regeneration, by allowing a major pedestrian route to cross the site. Delivered within a twelve month construction programme the store has already come to symbolise the city’s redevelopment ambition to make Southampton city the major retail destination in the south of England.
