So creative . Love it.
I love your design. and since I'm an interiordesigner and minimalist at heart your furniture are perfect for my style. it's hard to find unique minimal pieces and I'm from Jamaica and the culture here is very different. you inspired me and I'm happy you are doing this for people like me and others. thank you.
Parez Morris I'm Jamaican also. I'm making my own furniture because everything that I like is super expensive and I don't want my home to look like the traditional Jamaican home.......aka pack every inch with huge, bulky furniture...still holding onto the old European way.
Really love the idea of plywood beams!! Since plywood is so flat and you used your super nice saw blade there is no need for a planner or router making this accessable to so many people :) Also plans look great!!
it's really interesting that you never run out of new ideas. keep creating!
That's really awesome man!
Not for my place, but man, I love the design of this sofa! Great job
I had such a visceral to your work up until recently, I thought your scale was too small and your materials too simple. I still watched every video. It was great to hear about your background from the podcast and how you determined your materials you use in your projects. Thanks!
Really great method for doing the leather around the cushion, Ben! Good video!
I saw this earlier this year on his Instagram, and couldn't wait for the video it looks great can't wait to see what is coming next!!
Good Work, a video has to watch several times
One of the best tutorials ever. Great format & editing - direct and to the point.
Really cool project ! I really like that kind of design where you just add layers together and they interlock to create the joints !!
I love the design and how simple it is!
Nice work Ben. That's a pretty amazing design!
Nice! I'm happy to see more stacking going on.
Freaking love this man!! Simple, elegant and affordable!!! 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
looks great. i love it!
Using plywood to make plywood. :) I love it! Great design. I bet it is both super heavy and super sturdy.
Great design, and I love that the plywood construction makes this more "doable" for people without a lot of professional equipment or a real workroom. And it would probably be easy to make a similar design that can be converted into a guest bed.
Thatt looks sofa king heavy! Awesome build love it!!!
Seriously great! Thanks Ben!
Cool, wonderful job! loved it!
Awesome project. Nice way to reuse the footage of the leather work from the zigzag sofa too! It was only when the dog walked across I noticed! 😂 Hey no point reinventing the wheel! The end result is really cool looking. Clean and modern.
Love the video and creativity. Keep inspiring us
this is amazing!
You should build a cat tree playground thingy that doesnt look as horrid as the pet shop ones. pretty please!!
Love this sofa!!!
this is a really good method, we get bamboo delivers and to protect it the company sandwiches them between chip board, i often rip strips of it and glue it up to make work shop cabinets and doors, really strong and looks cool, nice one dude
fantastic...and so simple!!!
Love this simplistic design...
Love this one!
I like a larger seat space, and a shorter back in my modern style, but I really like your use of plywood "stacks." Cool!
love this design
Nice job! I saw what you did there with the cushion tho, I have seen that before ;)
yes same cushions from the zig zag sofa
it looks very nice!!!
genius! fantastic!
thats awesome!!!
Great job my friend.

Nice job brother, i want to see more this videos like this
Hi there from Portugal,
Nice Sofa :D
Obrigado(Thanks)
thanks for watching!
wow!!! absolutely beautiful and clean looking. I love it. how much would you say it would cost just for materials, including the leather?
I like the built in end-tables this design has.
Hi Ben, I found your videos a couple of years ago and have fallen in love with the idea of making my own furniture. But I have no idea where to start. What tools should I buy first? What projects should I start out with to help teach me the basics? Could you possibly do a video about where to start from nothing? Thank you for your videos.
Hey man....great project!!!
Just a thought: maybe the back rest could be foldable and rest on the seat to transform the sofa into a bed...
Keep up whit the nice work...
Great project. I like the way it is so straight forward. Can this design be extended to a three seater? If yes, what would be the things to consider?
Hope instructions are posted soon!
will give an update when posted!
I don't have much space but like the concept as a chair with the sides which would eliminate the need for side tables etc.
exactly, maximizing on minimal space
this is sweet!!
Those cushions look mighty familiar !!!
Bad Azz Yo !
I really like your videos and I was wondering if you could possibly show us how to make a leather press? I was looking through youtube and I didn't find any videos on how to make one but there were videos on how to use one.
I am not really into DIY, but this was so interesting, enough to get me into it.
SUPER COOL!!!
Your channel is awesome!!!!👍👌
Fantastic!!!
Perfect!!!
Je trouve ça super!!
this is quite similar to another build
He used the same clips to the leather.
Amei muito lindo mesmo.
Great one
Muito bom amei todos lindo de mais
Cool! How long do you wait till glue become strong and you become to glue next level? Do you polish plywood before adding second coat of lacquer?
exellent!!!
Yes! these are the same cushions as the ones on the Zig Zag Sofa: czcams.com/video/kibNILjgORE/video.html
AMAZING
that is so nice
Fantastic
Nice luv all your vedios
Show de bola 👏👏👏
brilliant
Very well done. How much was the wood and leather?
I really focused on sofa till the frenchy came to the scene. Than it all came to thinking about that cute bulldog. French bulldog obsessed 🐶 😍
Nice design ben! Looks a bit japanese so long and close to the floor!
would you do a concrete and resin project?
Great!
I really like this design.. is it possible some how to turn it into like a fold-down the bed?
Joe basement woodworking "get hands dirty" on youtube has a really nice sofa bed build that you should check out!
YES!! I was thinking the exact same thing.
Joe basement woodworking that's what I thought, too! It almost screams convertable...I'm sure it could easily be done - the plywood construction let's you play around with the design at will, after all. It's almost like building a lego bedcouch ☺
Rara Avis that's true about the plywood and funny you say that about the Legos cuz when I was watching the video it made me think of Legos LOL
Rara Avis could even cut a couple cup holders into the sides possibilities for this are almost endless
Add cup holders
Did you share the link for the foam? I saw the Tandy links for the leather. Thanks.
Just looking at this, am thinking wow could use this as a bed by making the headboard so it lies flat, what about giving my idea a go?
Question for you. If someone hefty were to sit dead center. Would the wood not begin to bend without a slat in the center extending from the front to the back to help prevent it from bending?
l love the design of this new sofa but I'm not a fan of the déjà vu part of the video. With that said, coming up with a new brillant idea every week is very challenging, so no worries... Keep up the good work :-)
can also we making storage below the seating??
Beautiful! I want for my cat's room
Dig it!
Do you have a diy Murphy bed video?
nice dude
Good thing to have a sofa for those 4 ton surprise visitors!
Would love to see a futon version of this.
muy bueno
Vc é muito FODA!!!!!!PARABENS!!!!!!!!!!
muito bom
What kind of blade did you use for your circular saw?
Did you put that saw blade on backwards?
woow!!!!
Curious, if you were to paint it what color would you have gone with?
instantsiv
Blacker than the blackest black. Times infinity.
You should've made some sort of hook or tie to connect the upholstery to the wood frame to prevent sliding. Nice build though
Good
I dont find the Description for this project On you Website :/
i only see the beauty
How much was the total build ? If you dont mind me asking?
