See 15 Space-Saving and Green IKEA Products Before the New Catalog Drops Next Month

Have you ever woken up "on the wrong side of the bed"? It may be just an expression but the functionality and comfort of our bedrooms and bathrooms really do affect our quality of life, which is why <a href="http://inhabitat.com/nyc/tag/ikea/">IKEA</a> decided to center their 2015 catalog around those two very important spaces. Yesterday, Inhabitat attended a preview of the mailer, themed "Where the Everyday Begins and Ends", and discovered a slew of efficient, <a href="http://inhabitat.com/nyc/ikea-unveils-ps-2014-collection-filled-with-space-saving-furniture-and-double-duty-designs-photos/ikea-ps-2014-lead-image/?extend=1">space-saving and eco-friendly furniture</a> and other products. Step inside our <a href="http://inhabitat.com/nyc/see-15-space-saving-and-green-ikea-products-before-the-new-catalog-drops-next-month/ikea-2015-catalog-malm/">photo gallery</a> to sneak a peek before the catalog drops next month.

“Everyone goes to sleep and wakes up, but everything in between those moments is very personal," said Patty Lobell, Sales Manager, <a href="http://www.ikea.com/">IKEA</a> U.S. "We all have individual needs when it comes to our morning and evening routines. IKEA understands how people live and we use that knowledge to create solutions to help you make the most of your personal spaces so you can make the most of you.”

Because not everyone has enough space to put their bed in the middle of the room (some of us need to push it all the way up against the wall) the popular <a href="http://www.ikea.com/us/en/search/?query=malm+bed">Malm high bed frame</a> has been updated to allow customers to choose whether they want two storage boxes or four.

The<a href="http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/60257182/"> Komplement valet hanger</a> ($5) allows you to plan out outfits for the next day to avoid frustration when getting ready. The metal punched out to create the holes is also reused as rod ends in other IKEA wardrobe systems.

The Knopparp loveseat ($99) is light enough to be folded up and carried home on the subway and has a removable, washable cover that comes in either yellow or grey.

This storage bed is part of IKEA's new Hurdal collection and features a rustic look. Pieces of wood with knots in them that might usually be discarded were used to add character and reduce waste.

These Stugvik hooks with suction cups ($14.99 for 4) are perfect for renters who can't drill holes in their walls.

Tiny bathroom? The Lillangen cabinet and sink has a slim profile and comes with a space-maximizing towel hanger, soap dish and tray.

The Knapper mirror doubles as hanging clothes storage ($69.99) and the Duken queen bed frame ($199) has a swappable headboard cover that allows you to re-style your bed without buying a whole new one.

Did you know that many IKEA faucets are designed to save energy by dispensing only cold water unless the user deliberately turns the handle to the left for hot water? They also have built-in aerators to cut water usage without reducing user comfort.

The Ragrund bamboo chair ($49.99) doubles as a towel rack.

Group two IKEA PS rolling wardrobes ($24.99 each) together to create a headboard for your bed or combine a whole bunch of them to make a room divider.

Miss Expedit? Meet Kallax ($64.99), the lighter version that gives the same functionality while reducing shipping emissions and materials. And don't worry. Your existing Expedit inserts and boxes will still fit fine in a new Kallax.

These delightful rugs are actually made up of older rugs that have been washed, cut up and stitched together. No two are exactly alike.

If underbed storage drawers aren't enough for you, the Malm queen storage bed ($499) pops open to give you even more space to store larger items.
