Our story so far
Sophie Home began with a simple idea: that bold colour and thoughtful, affordable design can help
transform a space – removing the need to change a whole room. Founded in 2013, in the corner of Sophie’s sitting room, the brand launched with a modest collection of nine throws, seven cushion covers, and four shower curtains. The online customers didn’t come flocking immediately, as per the business plan, so it was time to think differently, and Sophie took her products to market - literally – every weekend.
Her designs had a great reception – and people started asking to stock them in their shops. Fast forward to now and the range has grown from 3 products categories to 22. Sophie no longer wears all the hats, and is supported by a small team, trusted freelancers and a dedicated warehouse.
After working with a single manufacturer for over 10 years, the brand now works with seven carefully chosen suppliers, and is proudly stocked in over 500 independent shops worldwide. Staying true to the original vision, and the values behind it – even when it felt impossible - has been central to Sophie Home’s growth. Alongside, has been a constant stream of new ideas… and plenty more still to come!

Our values
Our Suppliers
Our manufacturers bring our ideas to life; it is crucial that we are working with the right
people and we are immensely proud of the partnerships we have nurtured over the past 12
years. We meet all our suppliers in person before we work with them and choose to partner only with suppliers who share our sense of social and economic responsibility.
We pay fair prices to all our suppliers, and in turn, set the fairest prices we can for you.
Our Credentials
All our cotton knit products are made from 100% Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certified cotton. Our toys are filled with a market-leading biodegradable filling. The very nature of knit and weave means we generate little waste. Every nursery toy and accessory is UKCA & CE tested, and our packaging and marketing materials are recyclable or biodegradable. We also import by sea to keep our footprint lower.
Our Purpose
Kindness is at the heart of Sophie Home. We care for our suppliers and customers, building genuine relationships with our stockists and retail customers alike. We focus on good design, great quality, and fair prices - while donating 5% of our annual profits to Choose Love, supporting refugees and displaced people in their greatest time of need.
Our Commitments
We’re always working to improve, whether it’s sourcing better materials, upgrading eco-credentials, refining packaging, or considering the stories we share. Our promise remains the same: to deliver thoughtful design, quality products, and fair pricing.
