IKEA is embracing its urban location for an upcoming store in Vienna, making it completely car-free. As a first for the company, the store will be adorned with more than 100 trees and will have no car parking spaces. Designed by Querkraft Architekten, the store will have a grid-like form enveloped by greenery. The inspiration for this striking structure is modelled on a bookshelf and also offers flexibility in terms of layout. Glazed boxes expand the floor space and offer a framed view of the interior, and the openness and transparency create a welcoming environment. There will be three different entrances to accommodate the needs of different customers, whether they are there for a spontaneous visit or a long shopping trip.
