An Ikea hack is a piece of furniture that has been modified or customized to fit the personal style and space requirements of its owner. Hacking an Ikea item can be as simple as painting it a completely different color, or it could involve removing doors and drawers and adding new hardware.
There are no set rules when it comes to hacking; each person will answer the challenge with their own creative ideas. This means that you can hack an Ikea bed frame one way and somebody else can hack the exact same bed in a totally different way.
