IKEA STOCKHOLM Collection – Timeless Scandinavian Design with a Modern Twist

20.08.2025

The IKEA STOCKHOLM collection is one of IKEA's most exclusive and beloved ranges, known for its focus on craftsmanship, natural materials and timeless design. Unlike many other IKEA series, STOCKHOLM is created with the idea of long-lasting furniture pieces that bring a sense of luxury while still being accessible to a wide audience.

These images were taken by Mauritz Interior & Design at IKEA Berlin, Germany. While charging my phone in a corner of the showroom, I could clearly hear the reactions of customers walking in.

"Wow."
That was the most common word from visitors as they entered the IKEA STOCKHOLM room setting. The collection instantly impressed with its bold green accents, natural oak furniture and timeless Scandinavian design.

What is the IKEA STOCKHOLM Collection?

The STOCKHOLM series was first introduced in 1984 and has since been relaunched several times with updated designs and new materials. It represents IKEA's premium line, where more attention is given to details, finishes and durability. The 2025 collection continues this tradition by combining oak, leather, glass and textiles in a range of furniture and home accessories that feel both modern and timeless.

Dining Room Highlights

One of the most striking parts of the STOCKHOLM collection is the dining room furniture. The oak veneer dining table offers a natural surface with soft lines, while the chairs feature woven rattan backs and comfortable leather seat pads. Together, they create a warm and inviting atmosphere that feels elegant yet relaxed.

The bold green sideboard adds a pop of color and works beautifully with natural wood tones. Styled with a round mirror and decorative accessories, it becomes the centerpiece of a modern dining area. The black and white rug seen in the showroom adds contrast and ties the space together with a Scandinavian touch.

Living Room Essentials

The living room pieces in the STOCKHOLM range are equally impressive. The collection includes sofas with generous proportions, TV benches in oak veneer and storage units designed with a clean and refined look. In the Berlin showroom, the dark velvet sofa was paired with light oak furniture, rattan armchairs and glass lighting, creating a harmonious and sophisticated setting.

Lighting is another highlight. The STOCKHOLM floor lamp with a marble base and linen shade offers a stylish alternative to traditional designs. Pendant lamps with glass cylinders add a touch of elegance and help to define the space.

The Iconic STOCKHOLM Rug

No introduction to this series is complete without mentioning the STOCKHOLM rug. Its bold black and white geometric pattern has become a design icon in many homes around the world. The rug adds character to both dining and living areas and pairs perfectly with the natural wood furniture of the series. It is a statement piece that has stood the test of time.

Materials and Quality

The STOCKHOLM collection sets itself apart from many other IKEA ranges through its focus on natural and durable materials. Oak veneer, solid wood, rattan, glass, leather and high-quality fabrics are combined to create furniture that feels both robust and elegant. This focus on craftsmanship makes the collection an investment in design that lasts.

How to Style IKEA STOCKHOLM in Your Home

One of the strengths of the STOCKHOLM collection is its versatility. The natural oak and rattan elements blend seamlessly into modern Scandinavian interiors but also work in more eclectic or classic settings. Adding a bold color, such as the green sideboard, can make the furniture stand out as a statement piece. Combining the sofa and storage units with the iconic rug creates a stylish and cohesive living area.

Conclusion

The IKEA STOCKHOLM collection continues to prove that timeless design and quality craftsmanship can be accessible. With its mix of natural materials, thoughtful details and iconic pieces, it remains one of the most inspiring ranges in the IKEA catalog.
