IKEA and Gustaf Westman Unveil 12-Piece Holiday Collection at Seoul Launch

The tie-up brings the cult designer’s chunky, colorful aesthetic to mass-market prices.

Overview

  • The limited-edition range, part of IKEA’s VINTERFINT program, was revealed at a press event in Seoul with a playful showcase built around Westman’s signature forms.
  • The lineup features a dedicated meatball plate, sculptural porcelain plates and cups, candleholders, a rechargeable lantern, an LED candelabra, and a spring-like vase.
  • Prices are listed far below Westman’s own brand, with outlets citing roughly $7–$25 and £4–£29, positioning the collection for a broader audience.
  • Availability details vary by outlet, with some reporting an online debut on September 9 and others citing IKEA Family pre-sales on September 19 and general in-store access on September 20.
  • IKEA’s creative lead says the collaboration reimagines seasonal rituals through bold shapes and a palette mixing red and green with bubblegum pink and baby blue, even as designs pushed against flat-pack constraints.
