About us

What is it all about?

We offer a wide selection of custom made slipcovers that fit perfectly to IKEA's most popular sofas and armchairs. Buying a new slipcover in our web shop is easy and more convenient than shopping at IKEA! No searching for free parking space, you can combine any of our high quality fabrics with your favorite sofa model and we have no queues at the checkout. In addition, we are open round the clock and we deliver your purchase to your door. What could be easier?! To be sure that the upholstery will fit you and to see what we mean by good quality, we gladly send you free fabric swatches.

So who are we behind savemysofa?

It all began in the fall of 2005. We bought a nice IKEA sofa without slipcover because we did not find any cover that suited us. We were going to make our own! In the car on the way home, the idea behind savemysofa was born. We just could not be the only ones who liked IKEA's design, quality and price, but could not find a slipcover that suited our taste and style. In addition, one could enjoy her old IKEA sofa longer by only changing the cover and that is good for the environment! We were brooding on the idea for a while but in the spring of 2008 we finally launched the web shop savemysofa.com. Our headquarters is located in south of Sweden, in the picturesque medieval town of Ystad by the sea, but we deliver our products to customers throughout Europe. What would we do without internet!

Our partners

Enthusiasm and passion are the motivating forces - not just for us, but also for the specialised companies with which we work. It’s much easier and more fun to work with professionals who are 100% behind our idea and our products.

Curt Ekblom

In Curt Ekblom, we found a photographer who was able to convey, in images, exactly the concept we had in mind. Curt:

Curiosity has been my primary driving force for the past 35 years when I embark on a new assignment. The enthusiasm of savemysofa.com is something I recognise from my early career. Ideas develop, creativity flows freely and ever-faster. Every assignment should be like that.

All the way to Paris

The all-female graphic design consultancy All the way to Paris (ATWT Paris) understood perfectly what we had in mind for our visual identity. Simplicity, value for money, environmental awareness and a dash of humour – these are just a few of the key words we gave them. ATWT Paris:

It’s always a great thrill to take on a visual identity from scratch. As "savemysofa" says it all in the name, we worked with a typographic logo complemented by the silhouette of a sofa. Making the silhouette understated yet distinct, we hope for a flexible use while retaining a highly recognisable shape. Savemysofa has all along had a strong belief in what they want to create, which has made the process open yet firm, fun and straightforward. And now finally! The pleasure of watching it all come together. We think that it has turned out beautifully!
