IKEA Color Codes
IKEA works in a blue, hex #0058AB, and a yellow, hex #FBD914, the colors of the Swedish flag. The IKEA color codes in Hex, RGB and CMYK can be found below. Ingvar Kamprad started the company in 1943 at seventeen, building the name from his initials and the farm and village he grew up on; furniture came later, flat packs later still. Its nearest peer on this site is Walmart.

What the IKEA Logo Colors Mean?
The IKEA logo colors are the Swedish flag, stated plainly. The yellow oval holds the blue wordmark like a badge, and the pairing has been consistent long enough that the shape alone reads as IKEA in a car park from a distance. It is a deliberately loud combination for a company that sells calm interiors.
IKEA Logo Color History
IKEA logo color history has a few early steps. The 1950s marks were red script and a red-and-black roundel; the blue-and-yellow oval arrived in 1967 and was tightened in 1983 into the version still in use, with only small refinements since.
IKEA Logo Fonts
IKEA logo fonts were Futura for decades, then a licensed Verdana cut in 2009 that drew complaints, and since 2019 a custom face, Noto IKEA. Futura Bold is the closest match to the wordmark most people picture.
IKEA Logo JPG
IKEA logo in JPG. No transparency, so it is flattened onto white. Safe for documents and slide decks.
IKEA Logo PNG
IKEA logo in PNG, with a transparent background. Use it over a colored surface.
IKEA Logo WebP
IKEA logo in WebP. Same transparency as the PNG at about a third of the file size.
IKEA Color Code Shades
IKEA color code shades step evenly from the primary toward black, for hover states, borders and shadows.
These are interface steps, not IKEA paint or trim names.

Brand colors are chosen for recognition, not for legibility. A failing value here is normal. It means use it as a fill, not as text.
