Koala’s Byron is the ultimate deep-seated sofa and comfy queen bed, now with washable covers and bigger hidden storage—all wrapped in the award-winning, innovative FlipBed™ design.
Deep cushions by day, genuine rest by night—the Byron flips from a sink-in sofa to a queen-size bed in one move.
Byron Sofa Bed [3rd Gen] in Ocean Salt Luxe Edition.
Koala’s Byron Sofa Bed [3rd Gen] pairs a generous sofa with a true queen-sized bed—now in its third generation with removable, machine-washable covers and even more hidden storage.
Byron is the ultimate deep-seated sofa and comfy queen bed, now with washable covers and bigger hidden storage—all wrapped in Koala’s award-winning, innovative FlipBed™ design.
The updated upholstery selection spans four core fabrics—Blush Sunset, Green Wattle, Currawong Grey, Cappuccino—and three bouclé finishes—Aussie Moss, Ocean Salt, Sand Bank. The bouclé covers are water-resistant to tackle accidental everyday spills.
Switching from sofa to bed is quick and fuss-free. One pull drops the sofa to a queen-size platform—no bars, no springs—topped with a 15cm Kloudcell mattress and a washable topper. It reads more like a considered sleep system than a fold-out, borrowing comfort logic from Koala’s mattress range to keep guests supported and cool.
By day, the Byron is a serious lounger. Deep 62cm cushions deliver stretch-out comfort, while a fastening system keeps everything planted. Bedding lives under-seat so the room resets fast after an overnight; the footprint stays clean and the look stays composed.
The awards tell the story: the Byron received a 2024 Good Design Award (Product — Furniture & Lighting) for uniting a sculptural sofa form with a genuinely comfortable bed that’s useful for small apartments and multi-use rooms where every piece has to work twice as hard.
Materials and make are considered. Expect FSC-certified timber, recycled content in fabrics, and construction designed to come apart for cleaning.
Choosing Koala means investing in considered furniture and supporting a brand committed to the environment. Koala’s sustainability stance sits behind the product story. The brand is a B Corp, part of 1% for the Planet, and reports donating over $6.5 million in the past three years to certified environmental partners, alongside a long-running partnership with WWF-Australia, with a staggering $3.5 million contributed since 2017.
If your spare room is also your study, or your living room needs to moonlight for guests, the Byron Sofa Bed fits the brief—a deep (and incredibly good-looking!) sofa that sleeps like a bed when required, then resets for daytime.
