IKEA — the place where families and young couples flock to for reasonably-priced, fix-it-yourself furniture (and Swedish meatballs) — is launching another series of affordable art in April. This time, the limited edition collection consists of 12 posters featuring hand-drawn motifs by international up-and-coming artists, who use everything from crayon and charcoal to watercolor and graphite to explore social issues, reflect on cultural experiences and tell personal stories.

Just how inexpensive are they? Each one costs $12.90, so you can even buy a bunch if your ultimate aim is for your apartment to look like it came out of an IKEA catalogue.

Check out some of the posters below.

‘Shelfie’ by Jean Jullien – inspired by a quote from ‘Fight Club’ on how ‘the things that we possess end up possessing us’.
‘We Are One’ by Hell’O – the mix between humans and animals, painted with patterns influenced by African tribal, Memphis design and pop culture.
‘Rainbows’ by Amandine Urruty – the idea behind this was to construct a mental labyrinth, a reflection of imaginary life, from dreams to cute nightmares, using characters from popular culture.
‘Big Audio Dyn-O-Mite!’ by Kevin Lyons – a funky portrait of the artist’s favourite Monster characters stacked atop one another.
