IKEA Krux LED Lamp 90s – Monika Mulder Design – Colourful Adjustable Table or Wall Lamp in Green

This is the IKEA KRUX LED Work Lamp, a playful children's desk light designed by Monika Mulder. 

Originally introduced around 2018, its animal-like design with forward-facing "ears" mimics a small creature or a stylised giraffe.

Key Features

Adjustability: Both the main support arm and the lamp head rotate to easily position task lighting over building projects or drawing areas.

Integrated LED: Utilises an energy-efficient, built-in light source designed to remain cool to the touch for maximum child safety.

Discontinued Colourway: This specific vibrant green finish is no longer sold directly by IKEA, making it a highly popular and collectable vintage item on secondary markets

These lamps are real eye-catchers and fit perfectly in a children's room, a creative workspace, or as a colourful accent in your interior.

Thanks to the adjustable shade, you can easily direct the light.

Monika Mulder studied at Design Academy Eindhoven. When it came time for an internship, she was eager to explore opportunities in Sweden. She was drawn to the country’s easy-going, non-hierarchical way of doing business and found an opening at the IKEA design hub in Älmhult. Here, she would often walk around the store and look for what solutions were missing – then start sketching. Among the products she designed as an intern were the FIBBE waste basket and a wooden box for CDs. She was also involved in one of the first IKEA PS collections that bolstered the IKEA concept of Democratic Design.

In 2007, Monika started her own design studio in Gothenburg, Sweden. She continues to design for IKEA and other brands. Her design process remains the same: starting with sketching, she moves on to building models and using 3D computer software, whether she’s creating the candlestick SILVERPÄRON or the office chair HATTEFJÄLL.

She lectures regularly at design schools like Parsons in New York City, advising young designers to stay close to their roots. “Be open, and don’t underestimate what’s right in front of you,” she says. “Your experiences and instincts are just as valuable as anyone else’s. And dare to be different!”
