IDS 2026 visitors can explore an inspiring 600 sq. ft. IKEA kitchen featuring TERRSJÖ — a distinctive textured door style debuting April 2026

BURLINGTON, ON, Jan. 22, 2026 /CNW/ - IKEA Canada is making a bold return to the Interior Design Show (IDS) in Toronto, Canada's premier design event attracting over 33,000 visitors. This return reflects IKEA Canada's commitment to better living through smart, affordable design solutions for Canadian homes.

"IDS is Canada's leading design event, and it's the perfect stage for IKEA to showcase our commitment to kitchens—the heart of the home," said Rob Kelly, Chief Commercial Officer, IKEA Canada. "Kitchens are a key growth area for us as they represent where life happens—where families gather, meals are shared, and memories are made. Our presence at IDS reinforces our ambition to make a better everyday life for the many Canadians in their kitchens through smart storage solutions that are functional, high quality and affordable."

At IDS, IKEA Canada will unveil a 600-square-foot booth centered around the theme of Cooking & Eating that celebrates the kitchen as the heart of the home and showcases IKEA leadership in design, quality, and affordability. The immersive space features a main kitchen highlighting SEKTION's flexibility and style, a hidden prep kitchen for behind-the-scenes functionality, a walk-in pantry for smart storage and organization, and a dining area with a beverage workstation that brings people together. This thoughtfully designed booth demonstrates how IKEA combines beautiful design with practical solutions for real Canadian homes—addressing everyday challenges like waste sorting, organization, and maximizing space.

"Our IDS booth reflects what we hear in real Canadian homes," said EJ Middelhoven, Head of Home Furnishing & Retail Design, IKEA Canada. "People want smart storage, clutter‑free countertops, and the kind of pantry they've always dreamed of. Our SEKTION kitchen system delivers this through flexible, beautifully designed solutions that make everyday life easier—and keep great design affordable for the many."
