Spring highlights by Ikea

This Spring, IKEA invites you to make room for a more festive life. Go bold, smart and party on!

SPRIDD LIMITED EDITION

The ever-evolving relationship between fashion and interior design contributes to our everyday life and enriches it with thousands of shades and patterns, making it alternatively minimalist or bold. The trends in both industries grow simultaneously, sharing vision and colour palettes. As the thin line between the two creative fields get blurred, fashion and furniture designers join forces to create unique collections.

To launch the SPRIDD limited edition, IKEA has teamed up with British fashion designer Kit Neale. The print-based accessories for home and beyond, including cushions, wall stickers, storage boxes and tableware as well as towels, tents and bags, bring a colourful splash into your life. With four different ambiances, initially inspired by four artworks, SPRIDD let you choose your favourite expressive universe among the bold patterns, or mix them all.

This collection is available until end of April.

The thing I love most about SPRIDD is the element of surprise – in the textures and in the scale of the objects and prints.” Kit Neale, fashion designer

TRÅDFRI SMART LIGHTING

Beginning of April, IKEA presented its smart lighting range and thus, took a major step into the connected world. Indeed, these new bulbs and LED panels can be remotely controlled in order to adjust the light brightness, intensity and warmth according to the different times of the day. Moreover, sensors allow the lamps to switch on and off automatically, when detecting movement.

Lighting is a key factor to create a warm, cosy, studious or festive atmosphere. This easy-to-use and affordable collection enables you to experiment with light and find the ambiance that suits you best to work, dine or relax.
