The PS 2026 Lamp, part of IKEA's new 35-piece PS Collection, debuts in Milan and features a patented hinge enabling transformation between uplight, spotlight, and reading light.
Pott's design, inspired by broomstick prototypes, emphasizes playful functionality and minimalism, with the lamp available in butter yellow, cobalt blue, and Bordeaux red for €39.99.
This launch marks the 10th IKEA PS Collection since 1995, continuing the brand's commitment to accessible, democratic design and interactive, multifunctional products for a wide audience.
