About St. Genève
Founded in 1988 by Michael and Annette de la Place, St. Genève has become one of Canada's most respected names in luxury bedding. Built on more than 50 years of industry experience, the company is dedicated to creating products that combine exceptional comfort, premium natural materials, and meticulous craftsmanship.
Every St. Genève product is thoughtfully designed to transform the bedroom into a place of comfort and relaxation. From lightweight summer duvets to luxurious winter bedding, each collection reflects a passion for quality that has remained unchanged since the company was founded.

Their commitment to excellence has earned the trust of homeowners, interior designers, luxury hotels, and discerning sleepers throughout Canada and beyond.
The Story Behind St. Genève
The inspiration for St. Genève began long before the company officially opened its doors.
As a young man, founder Michael de la Place experienced the remarkable comfort of a traditional European down duvet while visiting his family. At a time when duvets were virtually unknown in North America, he discovered how dramatically premium bedding could improve sleep. That experience inspired a lifelong passion for creating luxurious bedding that combines warmth, softness, and exceptional comfort.
Michael's appreciation for fine textiles was also influenced by his family. His grandmother, a talented designer, inspired him to value craftsmanship, creativity, and attention to detail—qualities that continue to define St. Genève today.
Together with Annette de la Place, Michael founded St. Genève with a vision of bringing world-class luxury bedding to Canadian homes. Since then, the company has become internationally recognized for producing premium duvets, pillows, bed linens, and sleep accessories using carefully selected natural materials sourced from trusted suppliers around the world.
Michael's expertise has also helped shape the Canadian bedding industry. During his more than 20 years as President of the Down Association of Canada (DOWNMARK®), he contributed to improving quality standards, consumer education, and ethical practices throughout the industry.
