Fancy a rug in the shape of a giant IKEA receipt?

By Amy Collins-Walker โ€ข Leave a Comment

FacebookPinEmailTweet

Out today, IKEAโ€™s new MARKERAD collection has been designed in collaboration with American creative Virgil Abloh (the current artistic director of Louis Vuittonโ€™s menswear), and itโ€™s designed to fulfil the basic needs when setting up a first home. Pitched at millennials, it has a subtle, pop-art feel with a giant “receiptโ€ rug and backlit Mona Lisa artwork just two of the collectionโ€™s more notable pieces.

โ€œI’m really glad that MARKERAD is now ready to meet with people and I look forward to see how these everyday objects will enter peopleโ€™s homes and hopefully add an emotional value to them. Because that has been the ethos of the whole collection. In the same way you might hang a piece of artwork on your wall, art can bleed into objects like a chair, table or rug,โ€ says Virgil.

Thereโ€™s 15 pieces in total including everything from bigger ticket items like a table, chair and daybed, to smaller ones like a toolbox, clock and textiles.

This isnโ€™t Virgilโ€™s first collaboration with the brand โ€“ his โ€œKEEP OFFโ€ rug, designed for IKEA Art Event 2019, was such a highly prized item that customers had to enter a ballot for a chance to purchase one. Similar to that item, we predict the collectionโ€™s โ€œWET GRASSโ€ and aforementioned giant receipt rug, will be cult faves too.

โ€œThe receipt is a trademark in itself that has been transformed into art. I think that this rug can just as easily be on a floor or hung on a wall โ€“ in both scenarios, the rug highlights the entire story that IKEA embodies,โ€ says Virgil.

The MARKERAD chair is a fairly standard chair at first glance, but itโ€™s got a little doorstop on one of the legs for a touch of the unexpected.

The MARKERAD mirror has an ironic โ€˜crackโ€™ in its top left corner designed to create visual distortion and subvert the itemโ€™s apparent purpose.

The MARKERAD table is a mid-century Scandi inspired piece that is super easy to assemble โ€“ each leg can be clicked into place in just one step using the supplied wedge-dowel fitting.

How gorgeous is this Brisbane kids' bedroom?! 

@brittwhitestudio worked closely with the boys (aged 7 and 9) to understand their needs with a bespoke bunk bed solution crafted by BRC Cabinets, featuring ample storage as well as an under-stair hidey-hole, a useful reading nook for books and a built-in charger for electronics. Local craftsmen Emmettโ€™s Ropes designed and hand-tied the ropework on the top bunk and the supporting pillar beneath.

Wallpaper in every single room! What do you recko Wallpaper in every single room!

What do you reckon? You'd think it would be overkill but it isn't because so many of the designs are subtle yet still impactful.

Head over to the blog to see how @grafico_walls transformed this blank canvas Melbourne townhouse with their products, which you've probably seen on The Block over the years. And read how Damian Corney has grown this Melbourne business with wife Adele and a growing team. There's also a look inside the very cool Motley Hotel which has used a whopping 4km of their wallpaper throughout!

You can also watch a video tour with Bec Douros as the house featured on Open Homes Australia over the weekend.

Our friends at @mintdesignau have done it again!

Homeowner Briony Marsh says: Itโ€™s totally changed our home lifestyle now we can sit outside on the lounge in the sun or shade, be in the pool, spa, sauna or cooking pizzas and hanging out with friends. It sounds cliched but it really feels like we are on holiday at home!โ€

Head over to the blog to see the finer details, including a sauna and a seriously good looking copper pizza oven. There's a lot packed into this space!

Located inside a 1912 sandstone villa in Adelaideโ€™s Kensington, this bathroom makeover combines classic and contemporary elements that complement the homeโ€™s original, period features. 

Designed by the homeโ€™s owner @designby_Tahirih, who is a property stylist too, the renovation came sooner than expected after water ingress made the makeover of their only bathroom an urgent necessity!

The whole project cost an impressive $20k, project managed herself.
