Missed out on our last exhibition? Join us for an online tour with Dovecot Curator Heather Carroll as she takes you through our new exhibition.
Magical Patterns explores six decades of groundbreaking textile design by IKEA. The exhibition provides a behind-the-scenes look at the creative process that has defined the iconic patterns of IKEA. Discover the playful and vibrant designs that have shaped Swedish design, from the famous stripy RANDIG BANAN to the bold, colourful ANNIKEN broccoli motif. Join us on an exploration of winding patterns, explosive colours and bold combinations and learn about the history of the IKEA textile department.
Exhibition by the IKEA Museum.
