IKEA has recently released the VARMBLIXT collection, a collaboration with Dutch-New Zealand designer Sabine Marcelis. Focusing on home decor, sculptural lighting and playing with light to create a sense of warmth and positivity, this collection is sure to brighten up your home.
The name VARMBLIXT – translating to “warm lightning” in Swedish – gives an indication of what’s to come. With products set to be available from February, the VARMBLIXT line offers limited editions pieces amongst those that will become part of IKEA’s permanent selection.
Sabine is no stranger to transforming spaces through her creations; she had previously designed the installation “No Fear of Glass” at the Mies van der Rohe Pavilion in Barcelona and was also lauded among Architectural Digest’s Top 100 Creatives for 2021 and 2022!
Let’s discover the VARMBLIXT coming this spring at IKEA.
IKEA VARMBLIXT LED pendant lamp
The IKEA VARMBLIXT LED pendant lamp is a perfect fusion of form and function. With its curved, frosted white glass pipes, it stands out as the signature piece of the collection. However, when illuminated, it truly shines – transforming into a mesmerising glow of warm light that you can customise and adjust however you like.

With its circular design that protrudes from the wall, the VARMBLIXT circular wall lamp offers a perfect mix of form and function. When lit, it creates a soothing, warm ambiance that completely transforms the look of your room. The fun part? When switched off, it’s still an eye-catching piece of art that beautifies any space. Thus, making it an unique combination and a must-have for any home or office.
This fixture can be hung horizontally or vertically, and if you want an even bigger impact you can group multiple lamps together to create an interesting light installation in your home.
An ode to donut lovers
The latest addition to Sabine Marcelis’ VARMBLIXT collection is her iconic “donut” shape. This delightful glass bowl, which comes in both amber and mint green. This is perfect for storing snacks or displaying table decorations with its translucent curved shape that reflects light in an almost mesmerizing way. Whether open or closed, it’s sure to add a touch of sophistication to any room!
The VARMBLIXT donut-shaped lamp offers a unique and eye-catching design that can be mounted on the wall or placed happily on a table or shelf, depending on your desired atmosphere.
Timeless design
Hand tufted wool rugs are a part of the VARMBLIXT collection and offer an eye-catching use of color. These rugs incorporate several overlapping styles for extra dimension and create an illusion of depth with the gradient coloring. Same designs can be found in the napkins from this range.
The IKEA VARMBlIXT collection is the perfect accompaniment to any home. Featuring an elegant carafe, champagne coupe, tumbler, tray with metal panels and drink stirrers. This set adds a subtle sophistication to any evening gathering or celebration. When placed in light, these glass objects create enchanting reflections and shadows—what Sabine calls “moments of wonder.”
