If you’ve got a LEGO super fan at home, you’ll know the eternal problem: bricks everywhere, and nowhere sensible to put them. That’s exactly what LEGO and IKEA set out to solve when the two brands teamed up to create the BYGGLEK collection – a clever range of storage boxes and bricks designed to bring play and tidy-up time together.

IKEA describes BYGGLEK as a way to bring play and storage together to fuel creativity, while also freeing up more space for play in the home. The range was developed with input from both parents and children, so it’s built around how families actually use LEGO – building, displaying, and (eventually) tidying away.

What’s in the LEGO x IKEA BYGGLEK Collection
The BYGGLEK line includes a mix of storage boxes and a dedicated LEGO brick set:
- A 201-piece LEGO brick set, described as a curated selection of existing LEGO bricks and play starters – think food items and minifigures in different colours and sizes – designed to inspire free play and creativity for ages 5+.
- BYGGLEK storage boxes, available in a few different sizes. Every box has LEGO studs on the lid and inside, so kids can build directly on the box and display their creations on top, or simply pop the pieces inside and snap the lid shut.
It’s a simple idea, but a genuinely useful one for LEGO-loving households – a storage system that doubles as a building surface, so tidying up doesn’t have to mean the end of play.
As availability and pricing for BYGGLEK can vary by store and by year, it’s worth checking your local IKEA or the IKEA website directly for current stock and prices before you head out.
