Last week, the Auber station in the Paris Metro was transformed into a 3-D version of an IKEA catalog.

With just 581 square feet to work with, the company wanted to demonstrate how a confined space could be furnished. Five tenants lived in the space over five days and their experience was detailed on the company’s Facebook page.

IKEA is no stranger to the Paris Metro–the company staged a campaign in 2010, placing furnishings in multiple stations.
