IKEA and Xbox have teamed up to launch a gaming-inspired furniture collection, YXSTABY.
Confirmed console details
IKEA and XBOX have partied up to launch a new gaming-inspired collection, YXSTABY, designed for gaming at home. Whether locking in or lounging out, in-game or on the sofa, the collection makes room for gaming everywhere without sacrificing function, comfort, or style.
The nine-piece collection was co-developed by IKEA and XBOX, with designers from each team working together on every piece, combining performance, comfort, and storage solutions for new everyday wins.
The XBOX controller is a recurring source of inspiration for the collection, shaping how several pieces look, and how they work. The classic D-pad becomes both a comfortable cushion and a decorative platter in shiny stainless steel.
A mirrored display box showcases a controller from every side, alongside figurines and other collectibles worth showing off. The collection also includes a gaming lounge chair, monitor stand, TV stand on castors, side table on castors, and laptop support with storage and accessories.
But the thumbstick stool takes the idea furthest. Developed from the XBOX Wireless Controller’s original 3D design files, provided by XBOX device designers, it seamlessly transforms an object moved by a thumb into one designed to sit on. Even the grip texture has a new purpose, helping to keep a person in place just as it keeps a thumb from slipping.
