Spiderman’s new living room?
In order to promote a new superstore coming to Clermont-Ferrand in the middle of France, Ikea installed a fully functional climbing wall of inexpensive modern furniture outside of a cathedral.

All of the decor on the 30-foot-high vertical floor plan is by the brand, natch, with a few visible, strategically placed holds for easier gripping between the colorful Reidars and Poängs.

It’s open to the public and looks like a lot of folks are checking it out.
