HONBAY was founded in 2018 by a former apprentice of a leading sofa manufacturer on a mission to change our relationship with our sofas. Rather than being a much treasured but often heavy burden that people felt obliged to commit to (sometimes for more extended periods than a relationship!), he thought - why can’t we change our sofas like we do our seasonal wardrobes? As time passes, so do our tastes and the wants and needs of our living space, so why should we be suppressed by a sofa instead of being set free?
