About Khoy 梳化床

Khoy係一款專為空間有限嘅家居而設計嘅梳化床。Khoy採用經過測試嘅雙層海綿床褥，可以由梳化轉換成一張完整嘅床。喺梳化模式下，坐面係一層150毫米嘅中等硬度承托海綿。喺床模式下，一層40毫米嘅記憶海綿形成較柔軟嘅睡眠表面，能夠貼合身體。模組化靠背可以移動、拆除或者用作扶手，而且每次轉換模式都無需任何工具。套面由再生聚酯纖維製成，可拆卸並可機洗。海綿部件經真空壓縮處理，方便平板包裝運輸。

Unique Properties: This sofa bed is a two-in-one furniture solution developed to address contemporary requirements for comfort, space efficiency, and adaptability. It converts from a sofa into a full-quality bed using a tested dual-foam mattress system that ensures consistent support in both configurations. In sofa mode, the seating surface is formed by a support foam layer providing medium-firm comfort. When transformed into a bed, a 4 cm memory foam layer becomes the sleeping surface, offering a softer feel that adapts to the body for improved sleeping comfort. Modular components, vacuum-packed delivery, and removable, washable covers contribute to flexibility, durability, and a user-oriented design approach.
Dimensions & Packaging: Sofa mode dimensions: W 2000 mm × D 900 mm × H 420 mm (seat height). Bed mode dimensions: W 1800 mm × D 2000 mm. Mattress construction: dual-layer foam system with 150 mm medium-firm base foam and 40 mm memory foam comfort layer. Upholstery: 100% recycled polyester, removable and machine washable at 30 °C. Foam elements vacuum-compressed for compact flat-pack shipping.

Production Technology: The design was developed through iterative prototyping and ergonomic testing, with a strong focus on material performance and modular construction. A dual-density foam system was selected based on compression, resilience, and lifecycle tests to ensure long-term comfort. The structure is optimized for vacuum compression and flat-pack logistics, while removable textile covers support maintenance, repairability, and extended product lifespan.
Design Challenge: The hardest part was designing a sofa bed that combines high-end elegance with broad home compatibility while being produced entirely in Europe. We had to simplify every manufacturing step, remove costly elements, and create a neutral yet premium product that stands out in its category, balancing quality, aesthetics, and efficient European production constraints.
Research: Type of Research: Applied design research for a commercial multifunctional product. Objectives: Enhance comfort, adaptability, modularity, and sustainability. Methodology: Iterative prototyping, material and ergonomic testing. Data & Tools: User surveys, interviews, observation, 3D modeling, foam testing. Participants/Experiments: Early users, small-scale home trials. Results: Optimized mattress layers, modular system, compact shipping. Insights/Impacts: Showed how modular design improves usability and environmental performance. Real-Life Effects: Supports modern living, reduces shipping footprint, informs sustainable furniture design and e-commerce strategies.
Inspiration: The project was inspired by everyday living situations where limited space conflicts with the need for genuine comfort. The motivation was to replace compromise-driven sofa beds with a solution offering true bed-quality sleep. Research focused on ergonomics, foam performance, modular systems, and logistics efficiency, resulting in a design shaped equally by user behavior, material testing, and contemporary living patterns.
Project Duration: The project was initiated in 2023 and developed between 2023 and 2025 in Hungary and Helsinki. The product exists as a fully realized item and has been sold as part of our e-commerce brand for the past two years. During development, a full-scale prototype was created to refine the design and production process.
Operation Flow: The sofa transforms easily between sofa, bed, and day-bed by rearranging its cushions and frame. Users lift or slide elements without tools, guided by intuitive positions. The modular backrest can be moved, removed, or used as armrests. This simple, playful interaction ensures comfort in every mode, quick setup, and adaptability to different spaces, while maintaining the product’s high-quality feel and ergonomic performance.
