A preview of Abstrakt gray
Spotted yesterday in a display at the Ikea Paris Roissy, the new Abstrakt gray. Very nice and soft, a good match for the orange backsplash.

Re: A preview of Abstrakt gray
How pretty! It's a really interesting mix of the "hardness" and "sharpness" of abstract mixed with a really soft color. And, it helps that I love orange, so the photos are particularly nice.

Smile Re: A preview of Abstrakt gray
Hi Albertsok,
Wow, thanks for the pictures!
I heard that there was going
to be grey door so I've been
planning my grey + orange
kitchen in Sketchup using
your Akurum models. My plan
is not too far off from your photos.
I'll be gutting a 1940s kitchen
and going as modern as possible.
I've attached a jpeg of my plan so far.

Re: A preview of Abstrakt gray
So what else can we expect new? According to this site, the Tampa Ikea should be open with the new 2010 kitchen stuff? Anyone live near Tampa and want to go take some pictures?

;-)

Tampa's new Ikea to feature 2010 style - Business Exchange

I still like Solar Beech, but this gray is really nice!

Re: A preview of Abstrakt gray
I saw this photo and thought how perfect if would be with Abstrakt Gray and Avsikt glass doors.



(PS it is also a great layout for a long narrow kitchen that is too wide for a galley 9'6" - 10')

Re: A preview of Abstrakt gray
I found the perfect sinks for this kitchen!!


I was at the Kohler showroom and they had a model kitchen set up with 2 Vapor Orange sinks. Oh WOW!!! They were amazing!!
Big Single Basin

Small Trough Sink


This colour isn't any old school orange. It is the most delicious shade of cantelope or sherbet. It would be absolutely fabulous with the Abstrakt Gray. They would be the ulitmate centrepiece of any kitchen.
