The Top 5 Design Trends We’re Stealing from IKEA’s 2019 Catalog

The Top 5 Design Trends We’re Stealing from IKEA’s 2019 Catalog

It's the most wonderful time of the year — no, not Christmas, but the arrival of the new IKEA catalog! If, like us, you immediately canceled all plans to pour over its glossy pages, chances are you spied a few (dozen) clever space-saving solutions, and something else too... TONS of 2019-approved trends sprinkled throughout each dazzling spread. (Um, hello buzzy jewel tones.) Click through to see the looks we'll def be stealing.
Floating Storage: There's just something whimsical about floating storage. Whether you're replacing a more traditional sideboard with a line of floating cabinets, trading a standalone desk for a wall unit, or looking for a way to showcase a few treasured objects in a display box, wall-mounted pieces are what you need right now. How gorgeous is the EKET Wall-mounted Cabinet Combination ($85)? Slide through for other floating finds.
Natural Textures: Rattan is still a huge decor trend and we love how IKEA is making it v accessible at a low pricepoint. Pepper in natural wood accents and even a bit of bamboo to really lean into the boho, natural vibes. Start by picking up the SNIDAD Rattan Basket ($28>, KANELSTANG Rattan Plant Stand ($15), and UTLÄGGA Seagrass Table Runner ($8). Then scroll through to see even more woven goodies!
Moody Pastels: Move over, millennial pink. Muted lilac has dethroned this trendy shade as the new most-talked about pastel, and we're not mad about it. Feminine yet subtle, this color is poised to have a major moment. Just look at the GRADVIS Vase ($10) and HANNALILL Curtain Set ($25)! Click on for more buys.
Jewel Tones: Good news: dramatic, dark, and rich jewel tones are here to stay. IKEA's latest offerings include deeper-hued colorways of some favorite storage options, as well as new things to love, like plush velvet in emerald and lapis. Case in point? The gorgeous STOCKHOLM 2017 Sofa ($1699). Scroll through to see other ways to bring the trend home.
Maximalism: Though IKEA has traditionally been synonymous with a more minimal look, we're loving how the new catalog embraces the "more is more" philosophy. Pattern-mixing FTW. Say hello to the FRANSINE Cushion Cover ($15) and MURBINKA Cushion Cover ($7). Then check out more maximal buys.
