IKEA launches KONSTRUNDA, a limited-edition art collection

Celebrating the distinct voices of seven creators, KONSTRUNDA is a collection designed to make art accessible and inspire a home that reflects personal expression, available September 1.

KONSTRUNDA is a bold and eclectic collection of art objects that transform everyday spaces through art designed to be accessible to the many people. Showcasing seven artists, designers, and creatives, the collection is made up of 22 distinctive art objects that reflect the unique perspective of each contributor.

"Art should be available for all to enjoy, not a luxury reserved for galleries," says Karin Gustavsson, Creative Leader for KONSTRUNDA. "Art evokes emotion, sparks conversation and helps transform a house into a home. With KONSTRUNDA, we wanted to create a collection that encourages people to express themselves and surround themselves with objects they love."

Bringing together creatives from different disciplines, backgrounds, and generations, IKEA invited each contributor to work independently with a blank canvas to create personal pieces. The name KONSTRUNDA, meaning "Art Tour", reflects the spirit of the collection through a tour of diverse voices, each offering a unique take on art in the home.

The collection spans glass objects, ceramics, furniture, and textiles, where a mouth-blown glass vessel becomes a focal point, a stool a sculptural statement, and textiles works of art. Characterised by bold forms, vibrant colours, and expressive silhouettes, each piece reflects the individuality of its creator while inviting a broader conversation about the role of art in everyday life.

A look at the designers

A glass table wrapped in a chunky welded chrome frame is a striking statement piece by product and furniture designer Andu Masebo. In contrast, two sculptural wooden blocks can be viewed as art objects, side tables, or stools – one crafted in raw pine, and the other finished in a brilliant blue.

Lisa Reiser is an artist based in Sweden who works across glass, ceramics, and metal. For KONSTRUNDA, she created mouth-blown glass pieces that are expressive in both form and texture. A green sculpture has the appearance of a gummy candy, while a lacquered black vessel plays with light and shadow to accentuate its curves.

For acclaimed Swedish designer Lisa Hilland, the opportunity to democratise access to art was a key inspiration. Pine, a material synonymous with IKEA, is celebrated in an ornately designed stool. Another piece, a ceramic orange sculpture, features a bold arched form that transforms negative space into an equally integral part of the design.

Emanuele Stamuli, specialising in interior design for the luxury fashion and retail sector, brought his vision to the project through a family of black and white objects with minimalist geometric patterns. Including a statement rug and a pair of complementary vases, his objects embrace subtle irregularities that make each piece more visually engaging. "The collection gives you the freedom to buy things based on how they make you feel or how they look, without the burden of needing to serve a specific purpose or function," says Emanuele.

In-house IKEA designer Akanksha Deo found the departure from function and the opportunity to create art objects liberating. She began by imagining a world of imperfect characters designed to bring personality into the home. "We live in a time where many are experiencing loneliness, and I wanted to create characters that would give a sense of connection, companionship and familiarity to a space," she says.

Humour plays a central role in her designs. A highly polished stainless-steel bowl appears as though it has been gently punched inward, creating an unexpected and playful form. Inspired by traditional wooden toys from her childhood in India, stacked geometric blocks take on the presence of a guardian figure. At its centre, a mirrored cube reflects the viewer. "Because the guardian," Akanksha says, "the keeper of things, is actually you." In contrast, a shaggy bright blue textile adds a jolt of energy to a space when hung on the wall.

The youngest designers in the collection, Ingrid Leander and Igor Holtermann explore the intersection of art and interiors through bold graphics and striking patterns. Inspired by what they saw outside their window, they drew patterns from caution banners and zebra crossings; details otherwise overlooked in a fast-paced city. Their work appears across textiles, including pillows and oversized floor cushions. In contrast, vivid illustrations of palm trees are applied to a floor-length mirror, a moment of calm or escape when looking at one's reflection.

KONSTRUNDA invites people to curate their own spaces, whether through a single statement piece or a growing collection of objects that tell a personal story.

"At IKEA, we don't claim to define or explain art. Instead, our role is to create space for it," says Karin Gustavsson. "We have extensive knowledge and experience in designing and developing products. We understand materials, proportions, colours, durability, and how to bring ideas to life. Through KONSTRUNDA, we offer a platform for artists to create and an opportunity for people to collect art that is affordable and reflects who they are in the home."

KONSTRUNDA will be available in IKEA stores globally and online beginning September 1, 2026.
