Choosing the right door for your PAX wardrobe can be tricky, especially if you want to coordinate it with wall paint, flooring or other furniture.
IKEA VEDDINGE Grey Kitchen – A Sleek Scandinavian Design with Open Shelving

Mauritz recently explored a beautiful kitchen setup at IKEA Gdańsk, showcasing the modern and functional VEDDINGE kitchen system in a sleek grey tone. If you're looking for inspiration for a small space that doesn't sacrifice style or storage, this IKEA kitchen might just be your dream solution.

Minimalist Design Meets Smart Storage
The VEDDINGE kitchen fronts are known for their smooth, matte finish and handleless, clean look, perfect for a minimalist or Scandinavian-inspired aesthetic. The grey color adds calm and sophistication, ideal for both small apartments and open-plan homes.
This kitchen uses the METOD system as its core structure, which allows endless flexibility in layout and organization.

Open Shelving That Invites Personality
One of the standout features in this IKEA setup is the use of open shelving. Instead of closing everything behind cabinet doors, the open wood bracket shelves invite you to showcase beautiful everyday items—glassware, plates, plants, or even a pop of color through decorative jars.
Open shelving makes the kitchen feel more spacious and airy, while also keeping essentials within reach.
Compact but Fully Functional
Despite its compact size, the VEDDINGE kitchen on display includes:
-
Integrated oven and induction cooktop
-
Built-in sink with drying rack
-
Clever use of vertical storage
-
Hidden waste bin mounted on the door
-
Space-saving fridge tucked in at the end
The layout is clearly optimized for both form and function, making the most of every square meter.

Perfect for Urban Living
This IKEA VEDDINGE kitchen is ideal for urban dwellers, especially in apartments where space is at a premium. With its modular elements and soft-toned aesthetics, it offers a refreshing take on what a compact kitchen can be.
Final Thoughts
If you're considering a kitchen upgrade or starting fresh in a new space, the IKEA VEDDINGE grey kitchen is a stylish and budget-friendly option that doesn't cut corners on quality or aesthetics. Open shelving, clean lines, and modular storage, this setup checks all the boxes.
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.
The IKEA EKHOLMA sofa offers a relaxed and inviting look, perfect for anyone who wants a practical yet stylish seating solution. Shown here in the cover Hakebo dark grey, it has a versatile tone that blends seamlessly with both modern and traditional interiors. The fabric feels soft to the touch while still being durable enough for everyday use.
When space is limited, every detail matters. At IKEA Tempelhof in Berlin, Mauritz filmed a striking example of how a staircase can be combined with a kitchen to create both style and function.
Choosing between IKEA's BODBYN and STENSUND kitchen fronts can be surprisingly difficult. Both styles offer a timeless, traditional aesthetic with framed panel doors, soft colors, and matte finishes. But the differences in design detail, material, and overall feel can significantly impact the look and mood of your kitchen.
IKEA never stops surprising us with fresh designs, smart solutions, and stylish updates. During my latest visits to IKEA stores in Berlin, I discovered several new arrivals that stand out – from elegant tables to practical storage and updated classics. Here are five of the most interesting new products you can now find at IKEA.
