Preview of the new IKEA Stockholm collection

It’s a little way off yet, but IKEA Australia will launch STOCKHOLM, a new collection of products with a focus on living, dining and sleeping solutions, in August.

STOCKHOLM is designed to add a warm and homey feeling through design that embodies both quality and comfort. Organic colour schemes are inspired by nature, like the lush greens and browns of fertile country fields. Organic shapes are paired with straight lines, adding a modern and distinctly Scandinavian touch. Materials like natural walnut woods run through most of the collection, as well as mouth-blown glass, bone china and warm textiles. The result is both contemporary and classic.

The collection is manufactured, packaged and transported in a way that gives customers the best value for money. The STOCKHOLM pieces are built to last and meant to be used – every day, and for many generations.

“My wish for STOCKHOLM is that people dare to explore new solutions and ways of decorating, breaking with old conventions,” says designer Ola Wihlborg. “The bedside table can be used as a sideboard in the living room, while the small chest of drawers fits perfectly in the hallway or bedroom.”
