Our kitchen taps come in a wide range of styles, but there's more to them than that. They save you money, too. Each has as a little device that mixes in air with the flow so you use less water, which is good for your wallet and the whole planet.
How to use less water – without even trying
Of all the water in the world, less than 3% is fresh. So, the careful use of it makes sense – financially and environmentally. Happily, some modern products can do the water-saving for you.Every time you rinse salad, fill a kettle or wash dishes, you're helping with something essential—saving water. How? Thanks to the small aerator in every IKEA kitchen mixer tap that reduces water flow while maintaining pressure. We didn't invent aerators, but think they are an important example of how we can work together to save water for everyone's benefit.

Scandinavian-style rental home in Tallinn city centre
Our business client has a furnished rental apartment in need of a complete makeover. IKEA interior designers were given free rein to create room solutions and choose products. The result is a bright and cozy Scandinavian-style rental home with modern rooms that are both practical and eye-catching.
Small on space, big on storage
There are many ways to give even the smallest kitchen some serious style and make it feel more spacious than it is. Use clever storage solutions to stow away things when they’re not in use and, if possible, try a simple design trick: white fronts reflect light and help create the illusion of a bigger space.
