Scandinavian lifestyle, design and traditions are words that best describe Skräddaregatan. A company that bases its traditions back to King Gustav II Adolf’s time, when he himself stood in the place where the street Skräddaregatan is today. Design Studio Skräddaregatan takes its name from the street on which it is located, which in English directly translates as “tailors street”.
The design studio follows the time honoured crafts and tailoring of seafarers that once existed on the street more than 200 years ago.History tells us that a fire devoured 218 houses on this street in the year 1804. Today there is only one house left which is the present day location of Design Studio Skräddaregatan. This is where history ends, and our story begins. The pillow The Swedish Love Affair was shown first at the Stockholm Furniture Fair 2008 and has been featured in 11 Design and Lifestyle magazines as well as Swedish national television. Each pillow is hand crafted out of the highest quality worsted yarn. All materials are made in Sweden.

Stockholm Furniture Fair provided us with a great opportunity to present The Swedish Love Affair. The response was beyond our expectations. Visitors came from around the world and sat and lay on our unique lounge pillow while relaxing with an espresso in their hands, just the way we anticipated them to do while at home. It appeared as though our lounge pillow was more popular than the chairs from the cafe next door. We are both proud and pleased with the fantastic reception we have received through publications in various design and lifestyle magazine in Sweden and beyond. On top of this we even had celebrities visiting us during the fair; we enjoyed the presence of Edelkoorts’ trend team and had great conversations with the guest of honour, Mr Giulio Cappellini. He even found a likeness to the traditional Swedish shortbread that we served guests and sent him a box of it to his Milano based office, the value of which should not be considered a bribe.
