Filipino design lovers have a new and exciting reason to visit IKEA as the store brings this personal and purposeful collection to the Philippines, a celebration of the great indoors where real life happens.
Some pieces do more than fill a space — they tell a story. They become part of our everyday lives, quietly witnessing Sunday gatherings, morning routines, and late-night conversations. They hold memories, comfort, and meaning.
For 40 years, IKEA’s STOCKHOLM collection has embodied this philosophy, infusing homes across the globe with Scandinavian warmth, natural materials, and timeless simplicity. Now, as it marks its milestone anniversary, STOCKHOLM returns with its most expansive and expressive edition yet — a curated collection of 93 pieces that celebrates living well, beautifully, and sustainably.
Design for the Way We Live
Rooted in Swedish craftsmanship and guided by IKEA’s Democratic Design principles, STOCKHOLM 2025 blends form, function, sustainability, quality, and affordability. The result: pieces that are elegant yet approachable, built to last, and made to feel personal in every space — from cozy condos to sprawling family homes.
Think:
- Sleek modular sofas designed to hold their shape
- Handwoven wool rugs inspired by Scandinavian forests
- Rattan furniture crafted using age-old techniques
- Mouth-blown glass vases and ceramic centerpieces with individual character
“Every piece in STOCKHOLM tells a story,” says Karin Gustavsson, Creative Leader for the collection. “This is high-quality, no-compromise design that brings soul into everyday living.”
Craftsmanship in Every Detail
STOCKHOLM 2025 is shaped by the vision of three Swedish designers: Ola Wihlborg, Nike Karlsson, and Paulin Machado — each bringing a unique design language while staying unified by the collection’s DNA of natural beauty and comfort.
Highlights include:
- Ola Wihlborg’s modular velvet sofa, developed after 30+ prototypes to find the perfect balance of structure and softness — no constant fluffing required.
- Nike Karlsson’s pine-and-rattan creations, including a sliding-door cabinet and foam-free sofa built with latex, coconut fiber, and woven fabric — a true celebration of natural material design.
- Paulin Machado’s nature-inspired textiles, from 100% wool rugs woven with birch tree motifs to lampshades and blankets that capture the colors of Sweden’s shifting seasons.
“The forest is a key character in this collection,” says Machado. “Nature is the best designer — every color, every pattern, just works.”
Designed for the Many
True to IKEA’s Democratic Design principle, STOCKHOLM 2025 offers premium materials and enduring quality at a price point designed to be accessible. From bentwood chairs crafted with traditional soaking techniques to ceramic tableware and glass chandeliers (complete with white gloves for assembly), every piece blends thoughtful design with everyday usability.
Ricardo Pinheiro, Country Retail Manager of IKEA Philippines, notes:
“This collection was made to feel global, but deeply personal — perfect for Filipino homes that value comfort, beauty, and function. Whether you live in a condo or a spacious family house, STOCKHOLM fits right in.”
Live Well, Where It Matters Most
STOCKHOLM 2025 is more than a collection. It’s an invitation to live well at home, to make space for beauty in the everyday, and to fill our lives with pieces that stand the test of time — in both form and function.
