HOLMSUND – The Sofa That Works Overtime

25.06.2025

Some sofas are made for relaxing. HOLMSUND is made for real life. It's more than just a place to sit – it transforms, it stores, it adapts. Whether you're watching a movie, hosting overnight guests, or just needing extra storage, this sleeper sofa fits right in. And it does it all without looking like a compromise.

At first glance, it's a classic IKEA sofa with high arms, plush back cushions, and a neat profile that suits both modern and traditional homes. But behind the everyday look hides a practical feature – it's also a bed.

What makes HOLMSUND stand out isn't just the fact that it's a sleeper sofa. It's how easily it transforms. One simple pull and you have a full-size bed, perfect for overnight guests or a quick weekend nap. No heavy lifting, no complicated steps. Just a smooth, satisfying slide.

The design feels thoughtful. The angled backrest makes it comfortable to sit upright without needing extra cushions. The armrests are firm enough to lean on with a book or a cup of coffee. And the storage under the seat is a bonus. It's the perfect spot for extra bedding, seasonal throws or that spare set of sheets you only use when guests come over.

HOLMSUND comes in a range of colors, often seen in grays, beiges, and soft blues. The upholstery fabric is tight and durable, giving the sofa a structured shape that holds up well over time.

It's not a flashy piece. But that's part of the charm. HOLMSUND is made to fit into real homes – small apartments, guest rooms, multipurpose living areas. It's not just somewhere to sit. It's a smart solution that adapts to your life.

These Holmsund sleeping beds are filmed by Mauritz Interior & Design at IKEA, Sofia, Bulgaria.

Choosing the perfect kitchen system is one of the most important decisions when designing your home. IKEA offers two popular options: METOD and ENHET. While both provide stylish and functional solutions, they cater to different needs in terms of customization, durability, and budget.

When you step inside IKEA's wardrobe displays, one thing becomes clear: the PAX system is designed to give you structure and order. As you can see in this example, every shelf, drawer and rail has its place – making it easy to imagine how it would look in your own home.
