Furniture company IKEA has launched the limited-edition Konstrunda collection, an assortment of furniture and homeware objects that reimagine collectible design from the likes of Andu Masebo at an affordable price point.

Konstrunda, or Art Tour, consists of 22 pieces by seven designers, including work from Masebo, Italian designer Emanuele Stamuli and Swedish talents like Lisa Hilland, all for under £200.

"We at IKEA feel that collectible design shouldn't have a barrier to entry, that to collect things you love and that speak to you should be available for the many," Konstrunda creative leader Karin Gustavsson told Dezeen.

"Konstrunda can be that entry point for a younger person who is just beginning to collect pieces for the home."

The objects range from a £19 black-and-white vase designed by architect Emanuele Stamuli to Masebo's £149 Konstrunda side table, wrapped in a chunky frame reminiscent of the Tubular Chair that first catapulted him to international attention.

The London designer also contributed two geometric stools that can double as side tables or plinths, one of which is made of raw pine and the other covered in a bright blue paint.

Swedish artist Lisa Reiser created mouthblown glass vases informed by her own daydreams for the collection, including a bright-green "gummy candy" version, while Hilland contributed a pinewood stool and a bent orange sculpture.

Designers Ingrid Leander and Igor Holtermann worked together on boldly patterned cushions and a rug informed by zebra crossings and caution banners they observed in the Stockholm streetscape.

In-house designer Akanksha Deo hoped to address the contemporary loneliness epidemic with two expressive vessels, one of which resembles a "character" made of stacked blocks to give people a sense of companionship.

Despite their functionality, Gustavsson refers to all of the pieces in the collection as "art objects", since she says the furniture giant doesn't see "art and design as separate worlds".

"This brief was about artistic expression, not about beginning with a functional need or everyday challenge that needed to be solved," said Gustavsson.

"By elevating everyday objects into art pieces, we give people the opportunity to live with art, rather than just viewing it from a distance in a museum," she added. "We have the ability to offer this at a price that people can afford."

IKEA also recently released its 2026 PS collection, which is similarly playful and affordable. Writer Debika Ray recently explored the impact of the collection, while Dezeen discussed if the price point was "too good to be true" on a recent podcast.
