Ikea Varmblixt Matter Support 2026: The Iconic Donut Goes Smart
Ikea reveals Varmblixt Matter support 2026 at CES. The iconic donut lamp gets a matte redesign and smart home integration for a seamless experience.
The 'forbidden glowing donut' just got a lot smarter. At CES 2026, Ikea announced it's expanding Matter support to its existing design icons, starting with the fan-favorite Varmblixt series.
Key Features of Ikea Varmblixt Matter Support 2026
According to reports from The Verge, the original Varmblixt donut lamp has undergone a subtle but significant redesign. The new smart version swaps the previous glossy finish for a matte white look, specifically chosen to highlight its new color-changing capabilities. Additionally, a new pendant lamp in the collection now allows users to fine-tune the warmth of its white LED lighting.
Ikea's Aggressive Smart Home Expansion
This move follows Ikea's massive push in November 2025, where they debuted 21 new Matter-compatible devices. By bringing the standard to existing furnishings, Ikea is bridging the gap between traditional interior design and the modern smart home ecosystem.
