Ikea launches a streetwear-inspired line of home goods

Cool kids only In case filling your apartment with Ikea couches, lamps, and bed frames isn?t enough, the company is now launching a new line that promises to put the finishing touches on your urban lifestyle. The Spänst line is a collaboration between the Swedish furniture retailer and the Los-Angeles-based fashion designer Chris Stamp.
Think of Spänst as a cool-kid starter kit for your home. The line, debuting in U.S. stores in May, orbits around sneakerhead-meets-skateboarding street culture with an Ikea-made skateboard and the rack to match. There?s also a wardrobe, clear shoeboxes for your rare sneaker collection, a duffle bag, and a ?light stick,? a minimalist LED lamp that you can prop up against the wall. Ikea describes the Spänst demographic as ?young, aesthetically-conscious consumers living active, urban lifestyles.? Translation: Do you shop at Supreme" Browse the racks at Kith" If so, this Ikea line is for you.
