Until 17 January 2026: Ikea: Magical Patterns
Dovecot Studios, 10 Infirmary Street, Edinburgh, Scotland
IKEA: Magical Patterns takes visitors on a journey of printed textiles within the IKEA brand. Yellow-striped walls and a series of wall-mounted motifs greet visitors as they enter the exhibition. The introductory text emphasises that “Textiles at IKEA are more than decoration. They are a canvas for creativity, innovation, and collaboration.” Recognised as fundamental to daily life, textiles are identified as IKEA’s second-most-used material after wood.
The exhibition celebrates innovative thinking, bold ideas, and colourful printed textile designs that have shaped Swedish interiors and brought accessible modern design to homes worldwide. This introductory framing positions textiles as a key part of the company’s development and central to IKEA’s identity as a home-furnishing company.
