IKEA gears up for festive season with new living solutions

IKEA has introduced new solutions that will define homes and transform common spaces into a small office home office (SoHo), bedroom or whatever customers want it to be.

With the year-end festivities just around the corner, homeowners might need a bit more extra space to share with family and friends. Double-taskers generally go for the Hemnes day bed frame, which functions as a sofa by day and as a bed at night, transforming the living room into a guest-friendly party pad.

The Swedish-based company also has solutions for singles living in 500 sq ft shoe-box units. Setting a loft bed up in the air doubles the units’ vertical space by designating the upper portion for sleep, while the lower portion is allocated for entertaining guests.

IKEA also advises newlyweds, who are combining two homes into one, to do away with leaning the sofa against a wall. They can opt for a KIVIK chaise lounge, which doubles as a sofa and can be split into two separate lounge chairs.

For the year-end holidays, IKEA offers a hand-crafted YRSNO hanging mushroom that adds a cosy touch to homes, while their STRÅLA lights and lamps bring in the joy and fun of the holidays with sparkles, snowflakes and stars.

All these items and more can be viewed online at www.IKEA.com.sg or in person at IKEA’s Alexandra Road and Tampines North Drive stores, which are open daily.
