3. What The Experts Say: Ikea (Image 3 of 13)
Mikael Beryyman, Ikea, says: ‘In the current economic climate, moving house is not such a viable option, so updating your existing nest with affordable, functional design is the reality for 2009. With the credit crunch upon us, it’s not all doom and gloom. Ikea believes 2009 is all about bright colours and bold patterns. The new Stockholm collection includes a bright new range of sofas and armchairs, and they are a brilliant way to see out the long winter months and liven up a room.
Don’t forget to accessorise your home in 2009, you won’t need to break the bank to get the look you desire. Small flourishes, such as introducing new vases and lamps, as well as inter-changing lampshades and cushion covers, are all great ways of bringing life to a room. Choose a colourful piece of furniture and make it a focal piece. Be bold, make a statement with your furniture. Functional design doens’t have to cost a lot. Ikea has got a range of great iconic pieces that suit everyone’s taste and budget.’
