When it comes to curating a space, there’s no brighter idea than nailing the lighting. Flick a few switches and zing, suddenly the room is warmer, cozier, and more layered, with pools of light creating depth and shadows adding another dimension. Even better if your table lamps, floor lamps, sconces, and pendants look just as good switched off as they do switched on.
That’s something IKEA has understood with its new VARPTROSS series. Across a table lamp, sconce, floor lamp, and linear pendant, the collection uses clean strips of bamboo bent into a softly curving silhouette that feels rooted in the traditional East Asian lantern while retaining a distinctly contemporary character.
