28.03.2025

If you're searching for a furniture collection that seamlessly combines modern functionality with timeless design, the TONSTAD series from IKEA might be exactly what your home needs. With its calm oak veneer, clean lines, and versatile elements, TONSTAD brings warmth and elegance to any room.

I recently explored the series in an IKEA showroom in Europe and captured some real-life inspiration through photos of the TONSTAD bed, bedside table, desk, cabinet, and bookcase. Here's everything you need to know about this beautifully coordinated furniture line.

A Bedroom that Breathes Serenity – The TONSTAD Bed

At the heart of the series is the TONSTAD bed frame, designed with both comfort and storage in mind. The oak veneer adds a natural, high-end feel, while the under-bed drawers provide smart, discreet storage for linens or seasonal clothes. The tall, smooth headboard offers a clean backdrop perfect for neutral or earthy-toned bedding.

Key highlights:

  • Wide and sturdy wooden frame

  • Integrated storage drawers

  • Natural oak finish for a warm, grounding look

Matching Bedside Tables – Sleek and Functional

Flanking the bed are TONSTAD bedside tables, designed with simplicity and usability in mind. Their clean shape and matching wood tone blend seamlessly into the room. With a smooth top for lamps or decor and a discreet drawer for small items, these tables are both beautiful and practical.

Perfect for: Minimalist bedrooms, cohesive storage, warm-toned interiors

The TONSTAD Desk – Work Meets Calm

For those who appreciate a tidy and peaceful workspace, the TONSTAD desk fits right in. With its generous surface, soft-close drawer, and timeless design, it's ideal for home offices or bedroom corners. Paired with a comfortable neutral chair, the setup encourages focus without sacrificing style.

Great for: Home offices, student rooms, hybrid work setups

Smart Storage with Style – The TONSTAD Cabinet and Bookcase

One of the most striking elements of the room setup is the long TONSTAD cabinet and its accompanying bookcase. These units are not just about aesthetics—they're built for real storage. The cabinet offers closed compartments for organization, while the open bookcase displays books, decor, or glassware in a warm and welcoming way.

Their oak finish ties the whole room together, creating a sophisticated yet cozy atmosphere.

Ideal for: Living rooms, reading corners, family spaces
