TREND ALERT: Natural shapes

Get on trend with new lighting from IKEA

Designers are taking their lead from nature this season, re-creating the organic shapes and contrasting textures found in the natural world.

Look out for shapely vases, rippled tableware and twiggy woven metals, as well as leafy bronzeware, honey comb textiles and sculptured light fittings like this one.
