Dune is a modular sofa designed for living spaces. The collection includes single-seater, single-seater with armrest and two-seater modules, each 100 cm deep and 75 cm high. Curved forms and warm gradient tones recall sand dunes. High-resilience memory foam and a lightweight, high-strength frame allow each module to be compressed for packing and to regain its full shape after unpacking. Compression lowers transport volume and cost. The modules can be joined to form different layouts. The gradient knit fabric is durable, wrinkle resistant and stretchy.

Production Technology
At the technological and research level, to enable compressed transport, we adopted a combination of high-resilience memory foam and a high-strength, lightweight frame, ensuring that the sofa modules remain structurally sound during compression and swiftly regain their full, inviting form when unpacked. Moreover, through innovative modular assembly, we refined the connection structure, allowing users to effortlessly create a multitude of configurations.
Design Challenge
The Dune Sofa draws inspiration from the undulating contours of sand dunes and the stunning colours of the sunset, combining modular assembly with compression technology to achieve a balance between aesthetics and practicality. The primary challenge was to ensure that the materials do not deform after compression, to optimise the stability of the modular connections, and to faithfully capture the artistic essence of the dunes in the design—ultimately achieving a seamless fusion of function and art.
Project Duration
The project will start in Shenzhen in June 2025 and be completed in Shenzhen in July 2025.
Operation Flow
The intention behind the creation of the Dune Sofa is to transcend the traditional constraints of cumbersome transportation and immovable layouts, forging a home furnishing that harmoniously unites ornamental charm with practical functionality. Meticulously refined compression techniques in packaging ensure effortless portability and transport, while premium high-resilience foam preserves both the comfort and the unwavering elasticity of every seat.
Research
Inspired by the landscape of sand dunes, the Dune modular compression sofa has been designed to address the challenges of traditional sofas in terms of transportation and layout. Through modular assembly and innovative compression technology, issues of bulkiness and inflexibility are resolved. High-strength, lightweight materials and high-resilience memory foam ensure convenient transport and versatile combinations, seamlessly blending decorative appeal with practical functionality. The Dune Sofa offers a fresh choice for the modern home.
Inspiration
Inspired by the gentle curves and shifting light of dunes at sunset, we sought to infuse the aesthetic beauty of nature into home design. Our aim was to address the limitations of conventional sofas, which are often bulky, cumbersome to transport, and poorly adaptable to diverse living spaces. We aspired to create a piece that seamlessly combines flexible configuration, convenient mobility, and refined contemporary style.
