Coming to Ikea: The Return of a Cult Stool (and More)

January 20, 2014

Just in time for spring, Ikea is introducing a new collection of pastel furniture and tabletop accessories in stores this spring. The collection is called Brí¥kig–that’s Swedish for “rowdy”–and includes a reissue of the Frosta Stool, a design directly influenced by the iconic Alvar Aalto Stool 60 (though the Frosta has four legs rather than of three). Here’s a sneak peak at some of our favorite items in the forthcoming Ikea collection (note that product names and prices are not yet available).
