Taking inspiration from the geometric, honest forms of Bauhaus and classic mid-century Scandinavian furniture, we have created a modern, elegant sideboard.

It meets the expectations of high-priced furniture with the unique IKEA approach.
The starting point of this project was the aim to make rounded pieces of furniture FLATPACKED.
With the new technology of cutting veneered particleboard, it is finally possible to turn flat objects into three-dimensional forms.

And since it is IKEA, it needs to be possible over and over again. This innovative approach ensures that the sideboard is not only easy to assemble but also retains its structural integrity through repeated use, making it a Customer friendly and SUSTAINABLE solution.
Designed to be free-standing, its back is as important as its front, making it perfect for placement anywhere in the room — whether against a wall or as a centerpiece.
Much like Scandinavian furniture tradition, this sideboard was built to withstand the rigors of everyday life, while aging with grace. Its wooden veneer brings warmth and a natural elegance to any environment.

Its versatility makes it suitable for both home and professional environments, while its well-thought-out proportions and ergonomic features ensure practical storage without compromising on style.
