Maker Laura Kampf shows how plain plywood becomes a sofa bed that converts from seating to a bed in seconds, with storage built in. Comfort, flexibility and smart storage drove the design.
"Having a good idea is one thing, but implementing something is quite another," says Kampf. The project is a good example of how execution separates a concept from a finished piece of furniture.
Festool publishes the construction plan as a free download, taking you from raw sheet material to the finished piece, and the full build is on Laura's YouTube channel alongside the drawings.
