Everything starts in the kitchen

The kitchen is more than just a room—it is the beating heart of the home where life happens. This is where dreams are born, important skills are learned, and problems are solved. Or at least discussed. This is where we gather with friends and family, celebrate life's small victories, share thoughts, and discuss what's on our minds. We are convinced that the kitchen is more than just a place to cook and eat. It is where we strengthen our bonds with each other. And that is ultimately what matters.

Recipe for a blissful Sunday

Sunday. The word itself sounds like a gentle sigh. No alarm clock, no rush, no obligations. Especially in autumn, when even the sun sleeps in a little longer, Sunday is the perfect time to press the pause button.

Put on your softest pajamas and follow our IKEA recipe for the ultimate blissful Sunday. Let everything simmer gently all day long in a cozy interior with a nice kitchen, warm blankets, and atmospheric lighting. And you'll have a blissful Sunday to enjoy without restraint.

I miss you, Grandma! See you at the table

Don't let distance prevent you from staying in touch. Prepare something tasty and enjoy a meal together at the table. It doesn't have to be the same table. Go online, turn on your camera, and make it fun. Love from a distance is still love.

TIDSAMM: The joy of cooking together

We love eating together. But cooking itself? That often remains a solo routine. IKEA wants to change that. Because the kitchen is so much more than a functional place to prepare food. It's a space where you can be together, talk, laugh, and make memories.

Time for TIDSAMM!

Connection begins at the table

Life should be celebrated. There's no better place to do that than around the table! Whip up something to eat, set the table, and call everyone over. Sit down on a chair, a stool, or a piece of wood from the garden. It doesn't matter if everything doesn't fit perfectly. It's time for connection, not perfection!

Dreams take shape in the kitchen

Many companies were conceived at the kitchen table. Or, if you enjoy cooking, at the stove. We are convinced that even the smallest spaces can inspire the biggest ideas. In the kitchen, there is always room for creativity, smart solutions (such as wall storage), and that little push you need to make your dreams come true.
