User Experience Learning from IKEA 1. User Learning and Discovery
I often go to IKEA to buy furniture and home goods. From a UX design perspective, I think there is a lot to learn from IKEA. One of the things I like most about IKEA is the guide map that shows the IKEA journey well.

-> Guide map of IKEA's journey
I think this guide map was designed with two main user groups in mind.
1. Beginners, first-time visitors: The scale of IKEA can be overwhelming when you first visit, but if you follow the guide map provided by IKEA, you will discover and easily learn about IKEA's products and showrooms.
2. Advanced users
IKEA has also taken into consideration advanced users, with shortcuts placed throughout the site. If you are already familiar with IKEA products, this allows you to easily reach the section you want.

-> IKEA has created a great shortcut.
Even when designing a website or app, UX designers must consider both layers of users when designing user experiences, so I think there is a lot to learn from IKEA, even though it is in the physical realm.
This part is covered in detail in the UX Design Introduction lecture. We will tell you what to consider and how to design UX depending on the user's skill level and intention.
Then have a nice day!
