You can really loosen up and relax in comfort because the high back on this chair provides extra support for your neck.

Bringing new life to an old favourite

Bringing new life to a home can sometimes mean bringing an old favourite back to life. Like STRANDMON, an improved version of the classic MK armchair that IKEA released in 1951. In the first IKEA catalogue, published in 1951, the armchair was featured for its “top of the line quality”. In 2013, 61 years later, we figured that people still want a high back wing chair that provides comfortable seating when relaxing at home, in a place of their own.

The design is so timeless and universal, that the STRANDMON on the 2013 catalogue cover is actually an MK armchair from the ‘50s, belonging to the founder of IKEA, Ingvar Kamprad.

Story

From vintage sitting to modern life

Do you sometimes get a little nostalgic? We do. That’s why we created STRANDMON wing chair. Its design is inspired by an IKEA chair from the 50’s called MK – a favourite of the IKEA founder, Ingvar Kamprad. It was even on the cover of our first catalogue. But how could it be refreshed and adapted to today’s demands? Well, we found a few ways…

Now in bits and pieces

The aim was to create a comfortable and high quality chair that was a real bargain. For example, Ulf and his colleagues decided to put it in a flat pack. “It has made it possible to have a lower price and reduce emissions during transportation, explains Ulf. The flat pack will also make bringing home STRANDMON a whole lot easier, especially for everyone who doesn’t have a car that can fit a pre-assembled wing chair.

Some things never change

The wing chair perhaps had its golden era long ago, but who knows, it might be considered a must-have in people's homes once again. “People have changed the way they live since the 50's, but the need for affordable quality furniture is still the same. I think that is one of the reasons to why STRANDMON is so popular,” says Ulf. The flat pack and the lower price, together with new colours and patterns, will definitely make it easier for more people to find the right spot for STRANDMON in their home. And – of course – experience some well-deserved comfort.

Material

Velvet

Velvet is made using a traditional weaving technique, which gives the fabric a dense pile that reflects light and gives a fine lustre with a slightly shiny look. Thanks to the dense pile, the colour looks deep and warm ‒ and the fabric feels cosy and soft against the skin. These qualities have contributed to velvet’s association with luxury. At the same time, it is a material that, if correctly cared for, withstands wear ‒ and that’s why it’s ideal for home furnishing.
