We’re skipping spring and headed straight to summer after getting a sneak peek at Ikea’s Summer Catalog!
You can transform your space this summer on any budget — throw in a painted accent wall or a new bright backsplash in your kitchen, and you can go from the winter blues to walking on sunshine in no-time.
The new summer pieces were created by designers Loota The collection was created with the help of designers Loota Kühlhorn, Malin Unnborn, and the Textilgruppen & Papperian Design Collective. Their goal was to create a feeling of always being in vacation mode, and we think they went above and beyond! We are ready for a beach vacation!
Here are a few of our favorite pieces from the new collection!
“Our ambition was to work with a group of designers who have a unique form language. Textilgruppen & Papperian look at things in a different and unexpected light — something that we truly appreciated.” Sara Ottosson, IKEA Product Developer
These indoor/outdoor seating options with handmade covers made from recycled polypropylene can be a place to sit, a place to kick up your feet or a place to put a tray with snacks or drinks. These would make great additions to a playroom, casual inside space or outdoor patio area.
