Our client’s original idea was an enclosure which could surround a sofa, and provide privacy for work and play, or for occasional guests spending the night; it’s like adding a tiny room to any space. This embodiment illustrates one method of turning the original concept into a believable product. In this approach, two fabric-covered frames expand, accordian-style, from two case halves; when the frames are compressed and folded down, the case halves then fit inside one another, clamshell-style. The closed case can  slide under a bed, or stand out of sight behind a door, making the SofaTent great for dorms, small apartments, and shared houses; it’s also fun for families with children (sleepovers…!). These images show one plausible interpretation of the concept; most of the functional details have been considered, but further engineering will still be required to create a working product. However, our happy, satisfied client (see endorsement) has the renderings necessary to clearly communicate his vision and enhance the presentations he delivers when pursuing that licensing deal.
