BEMZ Slipcovers Now in Designers Guild Patterns

Transform IKEA Seating in Tricia Guild Style

Tiring of that plain-vanilla IKEA armchair? Or when the neighbors come for dinner, does that pasta stain make you shuffle your dining chairs?

Check out the slipcovers from Stockholm, Sweden-based BEMZ, which are designed to fit most IKEA chairs and sofas – even discontinued models. And now, you can adorn your furniture with the innovative patterns of Designers Guild.

For many years, I’ve been a devoted fan of Tricia Guild and her team’s fearless use of color in its designs. I remember devouring Guild’s first design book in kaleidoscopic intoxication.

BEMZ ships to many countries, including the U.S. Nearly all of its slipcovers are machine washable. (Excellent – put on that pot of pasta!)

First Marimekko, and now Designers Guild. Love what you’re up to over there, BEMZ!

What a fun way to personalize in a new way! I was impressed when Marimekko jumped on this concept and I suppose it makes sense that where Marimekko goes, others will follow. I espeically love the quilted effect in the blue fabric. Who do you think will be next to design coordinating fabrics for Ikea?

Hi Sonu,

Such an affordable way to incorporate designer patterns in a space, isn’t it? That patchwork-quilt-look fabric is a colorful example of the resurgence of traditional handicraft elements in a contemporary decor – I think it adds a level of comfort to a room, don’t you? Good question about who will be next….What do others think?

Hello Honey,

I think they just make slipcovers for IKEA items. Here is BEMZ’s website: http://www.bemz.com/en-us/. Their contact info. is at the bottom of their web pages. I bet you have great plans for some furniture transformation!
