With longer days and warmer weather on the way, waking up in the morning is starting to feel a whole lot easier. That’s why we’re excited to share the new SOLUPPGÅNG collection (meaning “sunrise” in Swedish). Inspired by Nordic friluftsliv (“open‑air living”) and Japanese urban‑outdoor lifestyles, the collection offers simple, easy‑to‑bring essentials that help you enjoy quick moments in nature.
A seasonal refresh doesn’t just happen outdoors. Small, affordable home updates — especially after a long winter — can instantly lift your space. We asked Carmen Ciesielski, Home Furnishing Director at IKEA Canada, to share her top picks this season:
- LILLESÄTER swivel easy chair — A soft, sweeping silhouette that’s both stylish and functional. The series delivers a modern look that’s subtle yet bold.
- KALLSUP portable speaker — Perfect for indoor‑outdoor living. Lightweight, colourful, and able to pair with others for bigger sound.
- PELARKÖRSBÄR cushion cover — An easy, affordable way to switch up your décor. The watercolour‑style leaf pattern brings a vibrant pop of colour, and it’s made from cotton from more sustainable sources.
