When it comes to classic IKEA kitchens, the BODBYN series is one of the most beloved worldwide. Known for its timeless shaker-style doors, glass fronts, and versatile colors, BODBYN works beautifully in both modern and traditional homes.
I'm Mauritz, and I've traveled across IKEA stores in Europe to capture real-life showroom setups so you get authentic, inspiring ideas. Below, I'm sharing five stunning BODBYN kitchens I photographed to help spark your next kitchen project.
This kitchen pairs BODBYN gray cabinets with a sleek marble-look island, brass hardware, and warm wooden accents. The result? A sophisticated space perfect for both entertaining and everyday life.
For a softer, cozy feel, this kitchen combines BODBYN white fronts with a blush pink backdrop. Note the farmhouse sink and butcher block countertops, perfect for a charming, country-style look.
Small space? No problem. This layout maximizes every inch, featuring clever drawers, a slim U-shape, and dark wood countertops that add contrast and warmth.
This design mixes BODBYN gray with a patterned tile backsplash, giving the kitchen a fresh, modern twist. Add open shelving and hanging plants for extra personality.
A bold navy wall creates stunning contrast against white BODBYN cabinets. Marble-look counters and chrome fixtures keep it light and elegant.
