Inspired by history; designed for today PAGE INDEX 03 IKEA PS in the past 04 Behind the collection 05 Product gallery The past contains something the mind can’t resist. For the new IKEA PS 2012 collection, we asked our designers to find inspiration in more than 60 years of IKEA design history. Instead of simply looking back, we challenged them to bring the designs forward by updating and innovating forms, functions, materials and sustainability. And of course, we asked them to do it all with affordability in mind since we believe design – even design statements like IKEA PS – belong in real homes. A better everyday life at home for the many people is our mission for the past, present and future. 15 Materials and technologies 16 Product spotlight stories 19 IKEA PS in real homes 20 The designers 25 Contacts IKEA PS 2012 QUICK FACTS: • 46 products • 19 designers • 7th IKEA PS collection • Inspired by 60+ years of IKEA history • Designs innovate form, function, sustainability and materials • Materials like bamboo, recycled PET plastic, wood plastic composite and linen • Includes chairs, tables, lamps, bowls, textiles, pictures and more IKEA PS 2012 Available in USA August 2012 2
