Our Review.
Retro looking and very minimalist of a sofa from IKEA introduced in 2008 to replace the Karlanda range – the Karlstad can be made even more Scandinavian with custom vintage legs, tufted cushions, or by giving it a long skirt. It truly is the ideal sofa for DIY hacking.

Hi!
I’m desperately looking for a corner module to make my existing 2 and 3 seaters into a cornersofa. Would you have any ideas where to find one?
