Abstract

Systems and methods for a transportable sofa are provided. The sofa may include a seating unit that comprises a base, a back, a first set of hinges, and a second set of hinges. The sofa may be configured such that in a folded position the back lies in a substantially flat position, and the back unfolds to an unfolded position by swinging the top edge of the back upward and pivoting the back into a substantially upright position. The second set of hinges may include a left side hinge and a right side hinge that may be configured to fold at pivot points when the back is in the folded position, unfold at the pivot points when the back is in the unfolded position, and secure the back in the substantially upright position and prevent the back from pivoting further backwards. The sofa may also include a right armrest unit, a left armrest unit, a set of cushions, and a plurality of legs.
