Description
The Hinge sofa bed's minimal design makes it well suited to contemporary and mid-century spaces alike. It features deep button cushion detailing and its unique tilting mechanism allows the back of the sofa to be set at two different seating positions or to be laid completely flat. When set up as a sofa, the back rest has a gentle lean offering a comfortable recline that can be styled with colourful scatter cushions for extra support.
Our Stylist Says
I love this sofa bed for its sleek mid-century inspired design and rich slate velvet finish, making it a versatile statement piece. It works particularly well in contemporary or Scandinavian interiors where clean lines and bold colours are key. Its velvet upholstery adds a touch of luxe without feeling overly formal, while the deep blue tone introduces a wonderful pop of colour that can be easily complemented with neutral or patterned cushions. Practical styling tips include pairing it with minimalist wooden or metal accents and adding textured throws for comfort. It’s perfect for smaller spaces, guest rooms, or multifunctional living areas where style and functionality go hand-in-hand.

About Heal's
A Rich Legacy in Furniture Design
Heal's is a well-known British furniture store with a history that spans over 200 years. It began in 1810 when John Harris Heal and his son started a business for feather products but soon moved into furniture.
By the 1900s, almost everyone in London knew Heal's for its great furniture. Interestingly, they were also among the first to sell electric lights in Britain. During World War II, their main store even helped by making parachutes for soldiers.
Influences and Design Philosophy
A significant part of Heal's story is Sir Ambrose Heal, who worked there for 60 years, from 1893 to 1953. He had a unique idea combine the beautiful designs from the Arts and Crafts Movement with affordable manufacturing.
This meant more people could buy well-designed furniture without breaking the bank. If you visit the Heal's store on Tottenham Court Road in London, you'll see a cool spiral staircase and a statue of a bronze cat, both of which show off the company's unique style.
Modern Expansion and Growth
While Heal's has a long history, they're always looking forward. In 2001, a company named Wittington Investments bought Heal's, helping it to grow and open stores in many cities, including Manchester and Leeds.
They've also started selling products online, aiming to be a modern e-commerce store with physical showrooms. Their main Tottenham Court Road store celebrated 200 years in 2018. Recently, they revamped it, making it even better for shoppers.
