IKEA Infrastructure is

  • commodity - is simple to build and use
  • cheap and easily/cheaply replaced (and expected to be replaced as it's not intended to have a long life)
  • can be replaced individually
  • follows conventions across all solutions
  • investment in many smaller solutions
  • same setup step by step guide
  • once you know one solution other are self-explaining
  • no matter where in the world you are you can expect the same
  • easy to rebuild from scratch
  • lifetime of individual pieces small
  • designer custom solutions can be plugged in to raise overall value
