A new Ikea ‘Plan and Order’ format store opens Wednesday in Arlington.

The new, 5,000-square-foot store is opening on August 16 at the Pentagon Centre shopping center in Arlington.

The small format allows customers to order items for delivery with the help of "one-on-one consultation services," according to a press release. 

It's the first Plan and Order store to open in the D.C. area, with another planned to open in Gaithersburg this fall.
