    HIPVAN, an online store for designer furniture and home decor inspiration, has snagged S$4.7 million in Series A funding to build the "next Ikea" online, and further develop its private label products from bedsheets and rugs to Milano coffee tables.

    Launched in April 2013 after founder Danny Tan moved into a new apartment and found shopping for furniture an "incredibly frustrating experience", HipVan today offers over 20,000 home furnishing products through its web store and iOS app.
