How to take a break when there’s no time
When your life is overloaded with family, friends and socialising, a quick break to recharge can be priceless. See how you can seize the moment and make it a time of rest.
Build a brief bubble
Adjusting two armchairs to face each other is done in seconds. (To complete your bubble, close the gap altogether.) You’ll have an instant cocoon, ready for a short nap or just a bit of uninterrupted me time.
Breathe in, breathe out
A deep sill can be enough for a meditative pause. Add textiles and a LUDDE sheepskin for comfort, a roller blind and a steaming mug of tea. Now sneak off to your personal window of introspection.
Heed the curtain call
Let a spare mattress become an emergency creative corner. Use floor-length curtains to create a privacy shield – and a flowing canopy. A few moments to yourself, and you’ll be ready to re-join the everyday flow in no time.
We love to see our customers get creative with our products. Go for it! But please note that altering or modifying IKEA products so they can no longer be re-sold or used for their original purpose, means the IKEA commercial guarantees and your right to return the products will be lost.
