History of origin
In the mid-twentieth century in Scandinavia, during the period of active development of Swedish society, the IKEA company appeared, which currently produces a huge range of multifunctional, modern, and most importantly affordable furniture.
That period is considered quite successful and favorable for the middle class of Scandinavian residents, which is intensively strengthening, people’s incomes are growing, and the poor and rich are being balanced in terms of social state protection.
Now IKEA is a huge industry for the production and sale of not only furniture, but also high-quality textiles, lighting fixtures, and decorative accessories, which are appreciated all over the world.
Guided by the company's concept, a huge number of its fans are eager to arrange their own real interior in the IKEA style so that it is modern, stylish, multifunctional and budget-friendly.
From year to year, the European brand attracts more and more supporters and admirers into its networks, thanks to its sincere desire and desire to change people's lives for the better.
Disadvantages of IKEA furniture
Ikea furniture is not unique, as it is mass produced. That is why there is a high chance of repetition of individual interior elements (or even almost complete coincidence) in the apartments of your friends or relatives.
The modules have a standard size, which does not always allow them to be placed in small spaces.
Interior finishing materials
Modern IKEA interiors avoid the use of wallpaper; the best way to decorate walls is by painting. The most popular and fashionable thing in IKEA interior design is creating an accent wall in a contrasting color, as in the photo.
Try painting all the walls in a neutral color and one in a contrasting color, and you will get an excellent solution for zoning a room in accordance with the functional purpose of a particular area.
When painting the ceiling, preference is given to light colors, which visually increases the height of the room, and this is especially true for modern housing.
It is recommended to finish the floor in a traditional style using painted boards, laminate or parquet.
Doorways, like the doors themselves, can be made of natural wood or replaced with partitions made of frosted plexiglass.
But, the main thing in IKEA interiors is a maximum of space free from unnecessary details and elements. In small apartments, such an interior is achieved through complete redevelopment and partial dismantling of walls to combine rooms.
Living room furniture from IKEA
IKEA has developed a range of upholstered furniture for the living room, presented in a variety of styles and options.
The color scheme is also varied: everyone’s favorite white, various shades of beige, various bright or, conversely, dark colors.

Storage systems are represented by a variety of tubes, racks, and chests of drawers. All of them are made in different colors, from a variety of materials and are suitable for any interior.
Paintings
Beautiful paintings for home interiors are one of the best ways to decorate. The Swedish store offers hundreds of different options at once. By the way, many of their items are sold not at 1, but at 3 at once for one price.
You just have to rely on their series:
- Wilsgult. These are paintings on canvas with European landscapes. The line is characterized by a pronounced black and white content with bright accents. By the way, the series includes fairly well-known photographs of urban infrastructure.
- Pietteride. Excellent paintings in the interior of the living room. The canvas depicts hand-drawn flora and fauna. The highlight of this line is the specific blurriness of the strokes.
- Gronby. Modern paintings for the bedroom. The canvases feature black and white photographs of famous European places.
Also at IKEA you can find reproductions of paintings, inexpensive and quite stylish. At the same time, the quality is very high. You don’t have to worry that your kitchen paintings will fade or lose their paint. They will be good in 10 years. By the way, they come in different sizes.
IKEA furniture for the bedroom
IKEA beds are mostly made of wood or metal. Can be equipped with legs and backrests. Built-in drawers solve the problem of storing things in small rooms.
For storing things, IKEA offers a variety of cabinets, chests of drawers or cabinets with drawers.
IKEA furniture for the bathroom

Such cabinets can be wall-mounted or floor-mounted, occupying the entire space from the sink to the floor.
In addition, wall cabinets or narrow floor modules can be used to store hygiene products and small electrical appliances.
IKEA furniture for children's rooms
Children's rooms are represented by a variety of models of beds, tables and chairs, as well as storage systems.
The use of orthopedic structures and high-quality materials allows you to take care of children's health.
Using decor and indoor plants
And to complete the created interior, there are not enough decorative elements, accessories and living plants. But even when decorating, you shouldn’t forget about their functional purpose, because this is one of the main principles of the brand.
Take a look at IKEA’s ready-made interior solutions; in almost all of them you will certainly find all sorts of stylish boxes, boxes, baskets placed on shelves, cabinets and tables.
Coziness and comfort will be created by high quality textiles. Cushions, tablecloths, bedspreads, curtains, bed linen, made for interiors of a wide variety of styles, all in the spirit of IKEA.
For windows, it is proposed to use Roman blinds, which create a stylish and modest look, and also perform a special mission to regulate the level of natural light.
The wall decor is simple but stylish and modern. Basically, these are paintings and photographs in frames. Even children's drawings on various themes can decorate the walls of your home, but there is one condition: they must depict an abstract object (flower pot, vase or teapot). Photos on the walls should be placed in a chaotic order.
We hope you haven’t forgotten that another one of IKEA’s principles is environmental friendliness. This means that the interior must have indoor flowers and living plants that will fill the atmosphere of the room with oxygen. IKEA recommends decorating the room with orchids, begonias, cacti and lemon trees.
The IKEA Empire is a leader in creating home interiors, which is preferred all over the world, regardless of social status and age category.
A huge and unique selection of interiors that gracefully combine the main principles of the company: functionality, comfort, high quality, accessibility and environmental friendliness.
Once you choose the products of this brand, you will make your life beautiful, modern and of high quality, without ever regretting it. Be with IKEA!
