IKEA00 The Small Space Inspiration Behind the New IKEA Catalog

Late summer always brings a new IKEA catalog, and the new one has just been released. This year, they’re focusing on making the most of small spaces and learning how to get the most out of your home without sacrificing storage or style. IKEA was inspired to go even more modern this year too, but with their trademark Swedish style.

You can browse the entire 2012 IKEA catalog, and check out a few of the clever ways they maximized space below!

Free-standing PAX wardrobes can add a ton of storage to a relatively small room, and you can install them yourself.

You can request a printed copy of the 2012 catalog to be sent to your home, or you can browse the entire catalog below. There will soon be an iPad app available too.

Can’t wait to browse throught this catalog! I love that it’s focusing on small spaces – my house is less than 900SF and I can use some inspiration to freshen it up!
