Ikea brings back its beloved retro furniture pieces, reimagining classic designs for modern homes
Ikea Celebrates 80 Years with a Vintage Revival: The Final Drop of the Nytillverkad Collection
Swedish furniture giant Ikea is set to release the final drop of its Nytillverkad collection on 1 February 2025, marking the culmination of its 80th anniversary celebrations. This series of reimagined hero pieces from Ikea's archive offers a fresh take on vintage designs, making them accessible to a new generation.
The collection includes some classic favourites already available online, such as the 'Klippan' sofa and the 'Poäng' armchair, both designed and updated by Japanese designer Noboru Nakamura. These pieces stay true to their original 1980s framework, offering simple yet functional design, but are reimagined in new colours and materials.
Sven Fristedt's "Byakorre" shelf is another highlight of the sixth and final installment of the Nytillverkad collection. Originally named 'Guide', the 'Byakorre' shelf features steel wire sides and colourful edges, first introduced in 1985. Its notable and collectable design has made original versions sell for £800 or more on the resale market.
Other designs in the sixth drop of reissues include Gammelgaard's 'Jäärpen' chair, now known as 'Skålbo', Gillis Lundgren's 'Cox' easy chair, now 'Mofalla', and Erik Wörts' 1963 oakwood 'Novette' bench, now called 'Guttane'.
The Nytillverkad collection is not just a nostalgic trip; it's an opportunity to own a piece of Ikea's history while embracing contemporary design. These reissued pieces are intended to be shared and enjoyed, offering a unique blend of vintage charm and modern functionality.
So, get ready to add some timeless classics to your home, as Ikea's Nytillverkad collection is set to make a comeback next February. Whether you're a fan of the iconic 'Klippan' sofa or the sleek 'Poäng' armchair, there's something for everyone in this limited-edition collection.
