When it comes to modern kitchen design, balance is everything. Clean lines, functional storage, and clever material choices all play their part. This IKEA HAVSTORP kitchen, photographed by Mauritz in Berlin, Germany, is a perfect example of how simplicity can meet warmth to create a space that feels both sleek and inviting.
IKEA ÄNGSJÖN/OXMYREN – A Sleek Bathroom in Black and Wood

Designing a bathroom that feels both stylish and practical can be a challenge. With the ÄNGSJÖN/OXMYREN combination, IKEA shows how modern design and smart storage can come together beautifully.

A Statement in Black and Wood
The first thing that catches your eye is the dramatic black countertop with its marble-inspired pattern. On top sits the OXMYREN black glass wash-basin, a glossy and sculptural piece that instantly elevates the look of the bathroom. Paired with the warm wood finish of the ÄNGSJÖN vanity unit, the result is a clean, contemporary, yet timeless design.

Storage that Works in Everyday Life
Every element of this setup feels carefully considered. The round backlit mirror softens the geometric lines of the tiled wall, while the matte black soap dispenser and cabinet above add to the modern monochrome palette. The SÖDERSJÖN bath mat completes the space with a soft, practical detail underfoot – simple but effective for everyday comfort.

Details that Matter
