The children’s ideas and interesting thoughts became the starting point for Marta when she designed AFTONSPARV. A matching collection that can ignite imagination and play in everyday life with cuddly space friends, textiles, lamps – and a rocket made of cardboard! “It’s big enough to fit several children, and best of all: the only thing they need to travel to new exciting places is imagination.” Some of the planets may be inhabited by aliens, several children suggested. “They had so many thoughts about aliens and how they might look. Most of the time, they were kind, and so are our aliens.”

Reviews
GreatAnonymous reviewerKids love it, like the colour choices works well as night light and doesn’t get too hot
Disappointing & brokenAnonymous reviewerBought for my little boys birthday and when we went to set up in his room button was broken and light couldn't work at all. Usually excellent products ikea but this was below usually high standards
It’s great.Anonymous reviewerThe lamp is great. Unfortunately, it was packaged in a confusing way, because when I opened the box it seemed like the charger and fins were missing. However, it turned out they were stored inside the lamp – you just need to unscrew the bottom. So, for everyone leaving negative comments about missing parts – please check inside first.
Space Anonymous reviewerBrought for my grandson who loves space and rockets .
An absolute winner
Grandson loved it Anonymous reviewerGrandson loved it
Great lamp Anonymous reviewerOur son loves this lamp - the fact that you can select the colour light that you want is great as you can select a brighter light for reading and then a dimmer light for when it’s time to go to sleep. Looks lovely in the room too!
Great rocket light Anonymous reviewerLovely light for my young one, he over the moon with it.
Brilliant Anonymous reviewerMy son picked this might out, very easy to assemble and lovely calming lights. Different settings and an option to be a pure white light also. He loves it!
Great lamp Anonymous reviewerThrows out more light than I expected which is a bonus ! Great design , as all the bits were stored in the rocket itself ( so you need a screw driver ready as it needs to be assembled )
Love it!Anonymous reviewerLooks great and gives a nice feeling to the bedroom with the different colours, son loves it too!
Half the product missingAnonymous reviewerSimilar to many other reviewers, I placed my order and paid delivery only to find both the plug and fins are missing. Can’t comment further on the product as it’s simply not useable. Very poor service from IKEA.
Perfect nightlightAnonymous reviewerOur little person, is sleeping so much better with this lamp being on at night, we are using the red light for bedtime. And it’s a cute lamp and looks great. It was an impulse buy, but glad we did.
Too bright. Anonymous reviewerIt’s great aesthetically, but it’s not what we were looking for. We’ve since had to sell it on, due to needing a light that could be more subtle. Otherwise great.
Rocket LightAnonymous reviewerMy grandson loves this night light especially when it changes colour.
Rocket lightAnonymous reviewerI bought this for my grandson he absolutely loves it, has asked for all the others that you have
Rocket lamp Anonymous reviewerGreat purchase, dimming effect is very calming in a child’s bedroom.
Cool lampAnonymous reviewerLovely lamp for kids bedroom, nice design and well made. FYI - PLUG AND ATTACHMENTS ARE INSIDE THE LAMP! Not obvious at first and lots of reviewers have missed this.
Great lightAnonymous reviewerVery well made, little one loves it
Love this, because I am a big kid and wanted something fun on my deskAnonymous reviewerLove this, because I am a big kid and wanted something fun on my desk. Definitely a funky product and worth buying
Nice lamp but missing plus and accessories Anonymous reviewerPurchased in store but when we got home there was no plug in the box or the fins for the side of the lamp. Our closest IKEA is not down the road for a quick return so quite disappointed. Especially when our little girl really wanted to see it all lit up.

Story
Space is infinite – just like the imagination
With the AFTONSPARV collection, we invite children to the largest playground ever. Space. An exciting, mystical and inspiring world with lots of room for creativity.
You probably did it as a child too: gazed into endless sky and fantasised about what is out there among all stars and planets. Maybe it’s something children always have done, just like the children between ages 3 and 7 who participated in one of our workshops before we started working with AFTONSPARV. “We were surprised by how much knowledge the children had about our solar system and space”, says designer Marta Krupińska. “But, since science hasn’t discovered everything there is to know about space, there’s also lots of room for fantasy and own thoughts.”
A space rocket that runs on imagination
Fall asleep to glistening planets
When the space rocket is back on Earth and playtime is over for the day, it’s time to wind down and get ready for bed. The adventures can continue in the bedtime story and the dreams. Because when the light is turned off, the planet pattern on the AFTONSPARV curtain will glow. What was that? Maybe a spaceship full of friendly green aliens. Or a shooting star, so you can make a wish…
Form design process
Created together with children
Children are the most important people in the world and we’re curious to hear what they have to say since we create products for them! Therefore, we invite children to creative and playful sessions where they get to participate in our product development. Here they can express themselves freely and draw, show or tell us what is important to them. Their opinions matter and make our products better. After all, they’re the experts!
Designer thoughts
Designer thoughts
“When designing for children, I let my inner child take the lead. So I got in an imaginary space rocket with my design team and we flew away on an adventure. Before the trip we met enthusiastic children who told us everything about what we would encounter among the stars ¬– and assured us that aliens are nice creatures. I hope that the discoveries we brought back to Earth will go hand in hand with the unlimited imaginations of children and their vast knowledge of space."
