IKEA designs flat-pack indoor garden to grow your own food

Growroom is an open-source, flat-pack indoor garden

IKEA is leveling up indoor gardening.

The Swedish furniture giant is known for its flat-pack everything, from side tables to entire kitchens.

Now the members of their innovation and future living lab SPACE10 have set out to find a solution for gardening in cities, where space is famously scarce and expensive.

Growroom is a spherical 'urban farm pavilion' measuring just 2.8 x 2.5 meters ( 9.18 x 8.2 feet), intended to allow people to grow their own food in the comfort of their home.
