It's always amazing the way that one substantial piece of furniture manages to be packed inside such a seemingly [compact crate](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/boxed-collection) -- such is the marvelous magic of the Scandinavian furnishings store. This [IKEA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ikea-sleepfluencers-campaign) 'You Can Get More' campaign plays on this concept of quantity, presenting three different movables made entirely of cardboard boxes.

Auge Headquarters of Milan assembled a bed, a chair and a table lamp to advertise an impressive sale of 40% off. The statement which reads that "You can get more," is visualized cleverly when you do a bit of crate counting. An entire un-built bed set would likely fit within a box the size of the headboard. The IKEA 'You Can Get More' campaign thus suggests that for the usual value of a queen, you'll be getting a great deal extra.
