Coming this August, IKEA will be releasing its PS Collection. The collection will be a more high-end design line from the company, but at IKEA prices.
One particularly cool design is the palm leaf lamp. Designed by Wiebke Braasch, the Vava lamp is an interesting new approach for IKEA using a natural material like palm leaves.
Definitely a beautiful statement piece that people will love to own come August!
