What a coincidence to see this on the HN front page. I want to use these catalogs for a project of mine, but I first wanted to speak to one of the people of the IKEA museum or IKEA itself to inquire about permissions (outside of the ones on the website). I have been trying to get a hold of them for weeks now, but with no luck so far. If anyone here knows someone at those places, please let me know.
- ikeamuseumreal 1y agoIn this age of extreme AI scraping, and an actual need for fun, whimsical projects built around IKEA catalogs, I give you permission. (I am obviously not the ikea museum, sorry - but what's your project?)
- driese 1y agoHaha cheers. Despite this being a fun project, I'd still like to be the first to do it, so forgive me for not telling yet. I will try another round of outreach tomorrow and post it on HN as soon as I get permission.
- alpinemeadow 1y agoDM me!
- driese 1y agoI'd love to, but your profile gives no way to contact you? You can find one on mine, otherwise I'd be happy about a link.
- alpinemeadow 1y agoHej! My bad, I thought there was a way to message in HN. I don’t have social media so I leave you a name here: Sofia Lögdberg is the Archive and Collection manager. Good luck. Love to see what you have done.
- driese 1y agoHej, thanks again. I'll try contacting her.
