Innovative design for the evolving home

Koala exists to disrupt a furniture industry that has settled for the status quo. For over a decade, we’ve refined a design philosophy that blends engineering precision with aesthetic clarity. Creating products that are adaptable, sustainable, and built for modern living. With innovation embedded at every stage of development, we’re reimagining how furniture integrates into everyday life. Ensuring it’s responsive to shifting lifestyles, intuitive in function, and timeless in form.

Where innovative ideas become engineered solutions

At the core of Koala’s innovation engine is our Global R&D Centre in Sydney. A hub of designers, engineers, and material specialists dedicated to pushing boundaries. We believe in constant experimentation and collaboration. From initial concept to final design, every product undergoes rigorous iteration and testing. We’re driven by curiosity and guided by real life challenges, evolving each product through a process of refinement, exploration, and purposeful design.

Engineered fabrics.
Designed for longevity.

Durability meets style in our custom developed fabric range. Crafted to elevate both form and function. While others settle for standard, we’ve pioneered premium, high-performance textiles that deliver on aesthetics, comfort, and resilience. Engineered to be washable for real life mess and wear, our materials offer future proof solutions that extend the life of your furniture, without compromising on luxury.

Modular design for a dynamic life

Adaptability is the future of furniture. In response to an increasingly mobile and fast-evolving world, we’re designing modular systems that adapt to your space, your lifestyle, and the moments in between. Whether you’re scaling up or simplifying down, our pieces are built to move, reconfigure, and grow with you. Engineered for longevity and circularity, every component reflects a commitment to sustainable design and is future ready furniture for people and planet alike.

Precision comfort. Engineered to indulge.

We don’t do “good enough”. And neither should you. Drawing on a decade of expertise in sleep innovation, we’ve applied the same performance led thinking to reimagine comfort in sofas and sofa beds. Through advanced materials and ergonomic design, each piece is calibrated for optimal support and plushness. Whether you’re lounging, laying back, or getting a full night’s rest. This is comfort, fine tuned and elevated for every way you live.

Smart features. Seamless living.

In a world that’s evolving at speed, our designs are built to keep pace. We’re constantly integrating the latest in material science, furniture technology, and clever innovations to create products that do more… Smarter, faster, and better. From our famous Kloudcell® comfort, to our cooling PolarBand™ tech, we build functionality and intuitive features into our products. Elevating everyday comfort and delivering a more comfortable living experience.
