The WSL and Swedish furniture and home accessories giant Ikea have launched a collection in collaboration with the WSL designed by specialists and surfers such as Rob Machado and Kassia Meador.
Within the line called KÅSEBERGA, Machado was in charge of designing a balance board and Meador a glass. The products will be on sale in 2022.
According to various specialist publications, the line has a strong environmental focus and the products are recyclable.
Surfers and designers Kim Hogan, Jason Penning, Daniel Willon, Mikael Axelsson, Wiebke Braash and Mehmet Mehmetalioglu also participated in this project.
“As surfers we are close to the ocean and see first-hand the pollution affecting the ocean. We are happy to see the KÅSEBERGA collection becoming a reality and our common effort to make society more sustainable,” said former longboard champion Meador.
