Brief Explanation

The man behind the IKEA catalogue To highlight this year's launch of the IKEA Catalogue we decided to portray a very special collaborator: Fictitious character Torbjörn Lundberg, furniture impersonator from Malmö. As a stand-in for pieces of furniture on the photo set he ensures that chairs, tables, lamps and shelves are shown quite literally in their best light. And he is clearly one of the best who ever did this. There probably wouldn't even be a catalogue without him. A somewhat roundabout, but certainly original way to create awareness for the launch and convey that everybody gave their all to create this year's IKEA catalogue.
