IKEA, the Swedish furniture giant known for its affordable and functional designs, has announced a new line of Bluetooth speakers in collaboration with renowned designer Tekla Evelina Severin. Dubbed the Teklan collection, the partnership brings together IKEA's focus on affordability and accessibility with Severin's signature colorful style.
The Teklan collection includes three standalone Bluetooth speakers and two lamp speakers, each featuring distinctive designs that pay homage to Ikebe Severin's aesthetic. The line is notable for its use of bright colors and geometric patterns, which will be available in a range of options including green, red, yellow, blue, white, and black.
Available in various sizes, the speakers can be categorized into three distinct models: Solskydd, Vappeby, and Kulglass. The Solskydd series boasts portable designs ranging from 8 to 18 inches in diameter. While the smallest version comes with a rechargeable battery and sells for $80, the larger two require wall outlets and retail at $100 and $140 respectively.
One of the standout features of the Teklan collection is its emphasis on versatility. The smaller Solskydd speakers can be easily displayed or mounted to walls, while also being able to connect with other compatible IKEA Bluetooth speakers for multi-speaker mode. Spotify Tap support allows users to seamlessly pick up their music from within the Spotify app.
Another notable offering in the Teklan collection is the Kulglass lamp speaker series, priced at $130. The lamp's unique design features a built-in volume knob and comes in both green and red shades inspired by soft-serve ice cream. To complete the collection, IKEA has also released a new version of its Vappeby Bluetooth speaker, which boasts waterproof and ultra-portable designs.
With an expected release in early 2026, the Teklan collection seems to be arriving ahead of schedule. As such, it marks another significant step for IKEA as it seeks to fill the void left by its partnership with Sonos earlier this year. The new products will arrive in December, with exact launch dates varying depending on market location.
