With the new Ikea x Virgil Abloh collection launching in just a few weeks, we take a look at the full collection—which includes a table, chair, day bed and more—and how to cop it
After designing a rug for Ikea that sold out within minutes of its launch earlier this year, it's only natural that founder and CEO of Off-White and artistic director of Louis Vuitton's menswear Virgil Abloh and the Swedish furniture giant are back at it again.
This time, with a full collection of 15 pieces comprising a day bed, table, chair, mirror, lighting, bed textiles, cabinet and accessories.

Perhaps the most eye-catching piece in the collection is the low-pile 3x7 foot rug, fashioned to look like a giant Ikea receipt for the rug itself. Cute.
Abloh's signature in-your-face lettering makes several appearances throughout the collection, which is named Markerad. A smaller green rug is inscribed with the words “Wet Grass”, an all-white wall clock reminds you that time is "Temporary", there's a tote that reads "Sculpture" and a bright pencil case emblazoned with the word "Homework".
