PH145335 Catalogue theme We’re wrapping the entire catalogue in the context of a theme: Make room for life. It’s about looking beyond the walls of your home and not letting them determine what you want it to be. It prompts you to ask yourself what it is you want more room for in your life - whether it be friends and family, nature, relaxation, or maybe a bit extra room to do nothing at all.
Cover We invite you into a living room that is lived in, inspiring and vibrant. From front, to inside and back cover, we’re showing the same room with many moments. Just the way life is. We want to share the passion we have for life at home. It’s joyful and warm - a space that expresses who you are. At times, it’s welcoming and loud, while others intimate and silent.

Make room for being together -
Make room for life and apart. The living room tends to be the place PH144433
where everyone does almost everything. Play.
Nap. Work. Chat. Eat. Think. But sometimes we
don’t want to do it all together, right? Carving
out zones in this well-loved room makes space
for everything – and everyone.
PH144317
Engage your senses and make room for Zen.
Much of daily life is about being connected. Your home
can be a place to do the opposite. Disconnecting in
a space dedicated to engaging your senses can help
you toss the stressors of the world and simply be
in the now. Smell the fresh pinewood. Feel the soft
cotton textiles. See the green life of nature, inside.
This way, you’ll have the space to think, rest and
disconnect, just by being in the room.PH146117 PH144316 PH146115

Stretching your space to be as flexible as
PH146114 you are. The expectations of a living room Make room for life
are constantly increasing, while the space is
shrinking and the activities are bleeding into one
another. Furnishing flexibly with two gate-leg
tables means there’s plenty of room for socialising,
dining and your daily dose of exercise while your
little one sits comfortably close by.PH144661

A living room for kids to be kids. You might see
a living room, but your kids see all the ingredients
they need to play. And so your rug becomes a
hopscotch game and your coffee table an essential
for fort-building. When you furnish your space with
durable, washable – and good-looking – pieces, you
create a room where play is life, and anything can
happen.

VideoPlay for life
The IKEA Foundation has partnered with Handicap International to
support its use of play-based activities to rehabilitate disabled and
other vulnerable children. This story is about their work in a refugee
camp in Thailand. It’s about the children and their families living in
poverty, violence and difficult conditions, with no means to relax,
and no opportunity to play. Handicap International is changing that
by creating inclusive playgrounds where the children can feel safe,
share traumatising experiences, relax, smile and play - essential
elements for their mental and physical health.

IKEA and Tom Dixon join hands in a collaborative platform
Get a closer look at the IKEA collaboration with British designer Tom
Dixon. With the purpose to challenge the very core of traditional
furniture making. Dixon and IKEA explore a fresh take on seating
and sleeping, involving many creative thinkers in the process. The
name DELAKTIG describes the new process. Drawing inspiration
from the tech industry, the design team developed a bed/sofa with
an aluminum frame that can be hacked to change its function.
It’s an open-source platform to which people can add any kind of
features. Cool, huh?
