Sneak Peek at IKEA’s Upcoming 2015 & 2016 Collections: The Top 10 Things We Can’t Wait For
A few weeks ago I took a last-minute, wonderful whirlwind of a long weekend and visited IKEA’s design headquarters in Almhult, Sweden. (I know, I know, I’m lucky : dream job!) I saw SO much and took SO many photos, but I thought I’d start off my coverage by sharing with you a simple top 10 list; the products from the upcoming collection sneak peeks I attended that we just cannot wait to get our hands on…
#1
Literally EVERY SINGLE THING from the g-g-g-gorgeous SINNERLIG collection (launching October 2015) which is a collaboration with design icon Ilse Crawford for IKEA! But, if I have to narrow it down for the sake of the list, I’ll go for the very beautiful vessels like these dramatic oversized black ones (can’t you just imagine how amazing a big bunch of flowers is going to look in one of these?) and the big clear glass ones with cork lids. So pretty and so useful!
#2
The cutest (bar!) (plant!) (craft!) cart maybe ever from the ANVANDBAR collection (launching April 2016).
#3
The super Scandi-meets-hippie-weaver graphic black and cream runner from the TILLFALLE collection (launching February 2016).
#4
Global goes matte-black modern. A traditional tea-table shape done up in super sexy dark metal from the SVARTAN collection (launching September 2016).
#5
The black outdoor bench with a white built-in flower box from the ANVANDBAR collection (launching April 2016).
#6
The elegant organic forms make these serving spoons from the Sittning collection stand out (launching September 2015) stand out.
#7
The cane and wood shelving unit from the beautiful, designer + craftsman collaborative collection called VIKTIGT (launching May 2016).
#8
The hottest hot pink (my camera couldn’t quite capture the awesomeness of this color) puffer/sleeping bag style quilt from the super-early sneak peek at the still-far-off-but-always-amazing PS Collection. (launching 2017!).
#9
The wild op-art-esque pattern-topped wooden side table that looks even more amazing with more pattern (and graphic-shaped goods) layered on top from the TILLFALLE collection (launching February 2016)
#10
The so very excellent organizing inspiration books FIND IT Part 1 (about closet and wardrobe storage) and FIND IT Part 2 (about kitchen and food storage). FIND IT Part 1 is coming any minute (it might be here already at your local store) and FIND IT Part 2 is launching April 2016.
I’ll be sharing more about the upcoming collections in the weeks to come, along with more from Almhult – stay tuned!
