IKEA MITTZON – A Stylish Mobile Room Divider for Offices and Beyond

24.08.2025

If you're working with an open space and need a way to divide it without building walls, IKEA's MITTZON system is a clever and attractive solution. Whether you're creating calm zones in a busy office or adding privacy to a shared living area, this rolling frame offers flexibility, greenery and functionality in one.

Designed to Move and Adapt

Unlike bulky partitions, MITTZON is designed to roll. Its smooth wheels make it easy to move as needed, which makes it perfect for co-working spaces, hybrid offices or creative studios. It measures 85 cm wide, 205 cm high and 50 cm deep, making it large enough to define a space but slim enough to stay out of the way.

You can use it as

  • a mobile green wall

  • a divider between desks

  • a decorative lounge backdrop

  • or simply as a flexible shelving system

Add Plants, Books or Storage

Each MITTZON unit can be customized with add-ons like deep white containers (80×14 cm) and flat shelves (80×4 cm). These are perfect for storing plants, books or workplace essentials. The frame holds up to four containers and one shelf, but you can mix and match depending on your setup.

In the photos below, MITTZON is shown in two completely different contexts:

  2. Between two sit-stand desks in a modern and active workspace

Subtle Scandinavian Aesthetics

The clean white frame blends effortlessly into most interior styles. Whether you're working with minimalistic, Scandinavian or biophilic design, MITTZON adds structure without feeling heavy or intrusive. Its vertical design also helps draw the eye upward, giving the illusion of more space and height.

A Smarter Way to Divide Space

MITTZON doesn't require any tools, drilling or wall attachments. It ships flat-packed like most IKEA furniture and is simple to assemble. Once built, it's easy to move and reposition as your needs change. This makes it a great option for renters, creative professionals or office managers looking for temporary solutions.

MITTZON is not just a piece of furniture. It's a mobile tool for better zoning, greener environments and flexible layouts that grow with your space.

The LERHYTTAN kitchen in blue is one of IKEA's most character-rich kitchen fronts, blending classic craftsmanship with a slightly rustic, Scandinavian feel. During my visit to IKEA Stuttgart, I filmed two different LERHYTTAN blue kitchen setups, each showing a distinct interpretation of the same front.

Choosing the perfect kitchen system is one of the most important decisions when designing your home. IKEA offers two popular options: METOD and ENHET. While both provide stylish and functional solutions, they cater to different needs in terms of customization, durability, and budget.

When you step inside IKEA's wardrobe displays, one thing becomes clear: the PAX system is designed to give you structure and order. As you can see in this example, every shelf, drawer and rail has its place – making it easy to imagine how it would look in your own home.
