He explained students would like his flat-pack approach to a ‘minimalist apartment inside of a college dorm.’

‘Yo IKEA, allow Kanye to create, allow him to make this thing because you know what, I want a bed that he makes, I want a chair that he makes,’ the rapper said.

In response IKEA Australia posted a picture of a piece of furniture titled ‘Yeezy’, which is also the name of West’s fashion label.

‘Hej Kanye, we’d love to see what you’d create… we could make you Famous,’ IKEA wrote.

West, who is married to socialite Kim Kardashian, was pictured visiting IKEA’s head office in Almhut, Sweden earlier this year.

He has worked with the likes of Beyonce, Rhianna and Daft Punk and has collaborated with Adidas on a sneaker, also called Yeezy.

IKEA is the largest furniture retailer in the world with over 300 stores in 41 counties.
