The pattern is OK, but the colors are just awful.

The randomness and non-centeredness of the pattern suggests it was intended as camo for corporate spies attempting to infiltrate a Marimekko factory.

Weird...here's an idea, next time you do one of these with an Ikea piece, leave out "Ikea" and see how people vote....

....there's way too much baggage in the Ikea name.

I don't think it has anything to do with the Ikea-ness for me. It just reminds me of the pattern from the carpet in a movie theater from the 1980s, or maybe a Reno casino. Which is weird because usually I like her patterns.

The name that influenced me more was not Ikea, but Hanna Werning. I love her and her designs, so at first I didn't like the couch, but I sorta changed my mind when I saw her name. Interesting....(I know, I'm a brand whore).

Meltendo - absolutely agreed.

I don't care at all for what looks like little duckies and big ugly flowers, regardless of their unnatural coloration- its far too juvenile and doesn't look expensive or tasteful.

A child's room? Maybe. My living room? Never.
