How to Expertly Style Popular IKEA Furniture

Let me know your favourite and how you'd score/improve these down in the comments! Also, just bear in mind that these are just collages so I think the scale is likely to be off for some of these items.

Correction:
09:30 The HAVBERG chair's sitting surfaces are made from genuine top grain leather. They also have fabric options available too.

As a swede I really like hearing your pronunciation of the names getting better for each video, I'm impressed at how well you pronounced "Vittsjö" at 10:05

[pieterpauwels]

small note but I find the music a bit loud compared to your voice. Perhaps that's something you can keep in mind for future videos

[emanuelneves]

A masterclass of how can you can do a 17min video and keep your audience interested the whole way through. Great job Daniel, I'm a massive fan.

Incredible! Not only did you present some really cool & realistic pairing options, but you gave us a system to think through the value of our purchases. Other Youtubers focus largely on the value and the aesthetics, and rarely if ever talk about the comfort, durability, and utility. I also tend to think about purchases in isolation, so it was cool to watch you choose items batched by style and design.

Could you do a video on furnishing a small outdoor area such as a balcony or patio? I'd love to have your input on this as an inspiration for the upcoming summer. I love your videos and your design style!

one of these days Daniel is just gonna move to Sweden to fully embrace the IKEA furniture

[haisojybab]

Thanks for making videos gearing towards Ikea furniture design as it helps many people around the world appreciate various aesthetic and also be able to afford it.

Great video. Would love to see a similar take for a "reading corner" - 2 comfy chairs/chaiselounges, a coffee table, a lamp, and a bookshelf .

[jinlu]

I thoroughly enjoyed this video, Daniel!! I'd love to see it become a mini series and expanded to the bedroom and dining room next 😍😊

[marjoriebelt]

These videos are a great help to me. In my new and pared down living situation, I will need to be combining some vintage pieces with some new pieces of furniture - and the success of the whole project will depends lot on how the furniture works together.

[TallMChannel]

I love this video idea!!! Please do more videos like this in the future. I struggle combining furniture with each other, so this was very helpfull!

I have to say as some one who is looking to invest in property and always looking for biudget firendly ideas to show the property as an actual living space and not just an empty building this video is great. It shows some budget friendly options I can re-use in different properties that look amazing. I'd love to see more videos like this especially for bedrooms and living rooms

I love the colour option, plus it’s the most comfy sofa.
I’m in Spain so colour is good in our sunny climes

Hey, small critique but this isn't showing us how to pair furniture (which i would have enjoyed more), but is showing us items that pair well in your opinion. So, I would have appreciated if you switched the segments around; showing us how to do it ourselves first and then briefly showing us these combinations.

I was at friends' for dinner last evening, and we spent a considerable time over stories of the impracticality of white and beige furniture and rugs, ruined by spilled tea, red wine, etc. It's surprising how velvet is actually very practical, in that the nap is very wipable. I love the MCM option; you could choose it in shades of grey to make it more soothing if colours are too much, I suppose.

[rickygarbaj]

I'm getting ready to move and I've been watching your videos more frequently for inspiration and advice. Thanks again for this!

[edivaniald]

Hey, great video! Thank you for this. I just wanted to add that the Havberg chair is not all synthetic leather, parts of it are real leather! I don’t own it myself, but I just double checked as I remembered that it was real leather from when I first encountered it on the website.

Have a great day!

[sarahrzewnicki]

Great video! I like the Japandi style and the last one with the day bed! I love the functionality of the day bed and the aesthetic of the Japandi style! I like seeing all of the colors and textures be put together to make really great options !

[jecat]

What a great topic!! Please do more of these pairing furniture videos. So inspirational

[lukenatewilson]

I honestly love each of these combinations. My favorites are 2 & 4, simply because I think they look the most visually appealing and I could see them in my own home. I think for option 4, I would swap out that glass top coffee table for something more organic. The leaf shaped, wooden coffee tables at IKEA keep catching my eye.
