Ikea PS

by Guy Brighton in Design, Home & Garden

Ikea has launched a new collection called Ikea PS
under the heading “What if…” 28 designers have been asked by Ikea to design products
with innovated materials and techniques, including recycled and
sustainable elements. Productdose comments:

The outcome is the PS collection, which has a lot
of cool stuff (like this Axvall chair, above) and a lot of stuff that
just looks like Ikea (like this Ellan chiar, below), which still looks
pretty cool. The collection’s website isn’t bad, either.

I have an interesting story about the chair pictured in the above article. Yesterday I went to this Lisbon site where a few weeks ago IKEA and other designers had their bits assembled for an exhibition; arriving there you could purchase any of the IKEA PS stuff for half the price, unfortunately because I was riding my Vespa I had to ask one of the girls at the gallery to undo the chair into flatpack - trying to undo the bits she broke one of the chair’s legs :( brought with me in the end a floor cushion eheheh
