Just in time for spring, Ikea is introducing a new collection of pastel furniture and tabletop accessories in stores on February 1. The collection is called Bråkig—that's Swedish for "rowdy"—and includes a US-available reissue of the Frosta Stool, a design directly influenced by the iconic Alvar Aalto Stool 60 (though the Frosta has four legs rather than of three). Here's a sneak peak at some of our favorite items in the forthcoming Ikea collection (note that product names and prices are not yet available).

Above: We predict a run on this covetable desk made from copper-toned sawhorses and a simple piece of ply.
Above: The Frosta Stool, currently in full birch ply for £8 each in the UK, has not been available in the US for some time. With the introduction of the Bråkig collection, the stool is back with seats painted in pastel colors.

Above: A pine wood dresser, ideal for a playful setting such as a kid's room, has a mismatch of colorful knobs and sits on orange-painted legs.
