IKEA Live LAGOM Event
Lagom: It’s a simple Swedish philosophy on everyday life that means ‘just the right amount’. We can strike a healthy balance with the world around us without having to make extreme changes, and without denying ourselves the things we love. It’s a powerful idea that’s all change and no fuss.
From Wednesday 22nd to Sunday 26th of February living LAGOM is coming to IKEA Order and Collection Point at Westfield Stratford City. Join us at one of the Live LAGOM workshops listed below and see how to live life in balance.
WHATS ON?
Workshop: Curry in a hurryCreate your own healthy meal in a third of the time using our induction hob. We’ll reveal the marvels of the pressure cooker and how it can save you time and energy in the kitchen. All it takes is some clever cookware and thoughtful planning.
Workshop: An intent to fermentDiscover how fermenting can revolutionise your pantry. Turn your leftover fruit and veg into tomorrow’s tasty treat. It’s easy, saves you money, plus it’s good for you too.
Workshop: On your bikeCity cycling can be scary sometimes, but it doesn’t have to be. Join us for some handy tips and ideas on how to make your cycling commute feel like a walk (or cycle?) in the park. To help you figure out what you need most when you’re peddling around, we’ll have our SLADDA bikes on hand to test out and explore too.

IKEA Live LAGOM ProjectWith LAGOM in mind, we think you can live a more sustainable, healthy and cost-conscious life at home without any dramatic upheaval. In fact it’s often the smallest changes that can have the biggest impact. Turning the tap off while brushing your teeth, switching to LED light bulbs- you'd be surprised how much these small tweaks to the everyday can impact both the world and your wallet.
As part of our Live LAGOM project, we supported IKEA customers and co-workers with products, workshops, bespoke advice and an active community to help save energy and water, reduce waste and promote a healthy lifestyle. Through their experience we wanted to learn how to make sustainability affordable and easy to achieve. We hope you will be inspired to Live LAGOM too!
