Do you think you’ve already seen it all when it comes to decor collaborations? Wait a bit. A new collection has just arrived, and it could well shake up what you think you know about low-cost design.
IKEA x Gustaf Westman: a fresh breath of fresh air for end-of-year decor
Behind this collaboration, there is a clear desire: to break the fixed traditions around winter decoration. IKEA therefore asked Gustaf Westman to inject his joyful and uninhibited universe into the VINTERFINT and STRÅLA range. Result ? Twelve objects that mix design, functionality and a nod to childhood.
Between the generously curved lamps, the playful geometric plates and the vases that resemble works of art, each piece seems to tell a story. And if you’re a fan of plump shapes, soft silhouettes and bold colors, you might fall in love with this collection.
Objects made to surprise and make you smile
Here, everything is designed to shake up the ordinary. The plate is no longer just a food support, but becomes a graphic object. The saucer, too big for its cup, gives you room to place your biscuits. The chandelier twists the neck of the classic by assuming sinuous shapes.
In terms of colors, we are far from polar white or classic gold. Make way for bright red, deep green, soft pink and pastel blue. Assumed choices, which nevertheless fit easily into any interior, precisely because they stand out.
You will quickly notice that these objects are not incidental. They catch the eye, capture attention and set the tone of a space. And that’s perhaps the best thing: they transform the atmosphere of a room, without ever seeming to do too much.
Twelve pieces and one ambition: to move you
Are you wondering what exactly we find in this collab? Here are the key objects:
-
A square plate with a round center, to play with geometric contrasts
-
A tray for dumplings (but you can put whatever you want on it), with perfectly aligned compartments
-
An oversized cup and saucer, with a childhood snack spirit
-
A spiral vase, full of tension and poetry
-
Candle holders and lighting fixtures that look like they came from a child’s drawing
Each of these objects can live alone… but their strength lies in the whole. You can create an entire table, a reading corner or a shelf just with this collection, and you will immediately get a wow effect.
Accessible, designed to last, and already cult
Price-wise, IKEA remains faithful to its promise of accessibility. The items in this collection are sold between $6.99 and $29.99, which allows you to test, to dare, without blowing your budget. You can go for a strong piece like the vase, or opt for a plate + cup set for less than 20 euros.
And be careful: the collection has been available since the beginning of October 2025, in stores and on the site. Some items are already out of stock in some countries. Suffice to say that if you have a crush, it’s better not to hang around too long.
Why you’re going to fall for it (and it’s not just for Christmas)
What makes this collaboration special is that it’s not just about design. She speaks of emotion. Reinvented rituals. Moments that we share differently. Westman doesn’t just invite you to put a beautiful plate on the table: he invites you to see it differently.
Do you want a party decoration that is unlike any other? Do you want a strong piece in your kitchen without breaking the bank? Do you want something that triggers a smile? This collection ticks all the boxes. And even if you don’t celebrate Christmas, you’ll find something to make your home vibrate. No fuss, no fixed codes. Just with style, and a lot of joy.
