TAMPA, FL – IKEA, the world’s leading home furnishings retailer, today noted that exterior painting essentially is complete for its store opening next spring in the Ybor City-area of Tampa . This iconic blue painting represents another milestone in the build-up of the future store, and ensures IKEA Tampa will reflect the unique blue and yellow architectural design for which IKEA stores are known worldwide.
“With our walls mostly painted, we continue to advance other exterior and interior work as part of the build-up effort,” said Michael Maier, IKEA real estate manager. “We are turning the physical structure into what our many Tampa Bay customers have come to appreciate as an IKEA store. We know they are anxious for us to open.”
