Basic Futon

The Karup Basic futon is an 11 cm-thick mattress made from 90–95% cotton, with 5–10% PU foam inside, giving it greater density and thickness than traditional Japanese futons. The outer cover is 100% cotton. The cotton in the futon moulds to and supports your body, whilst the foam layer absorbs slight movements.

Karup’s design stems from the perfect blend of minimalist, essential Scandinavian design and Japanese futons. All its creations are convertible solid wood furniture: teenagers’ rooms, guest rooms, first homes and summer houses. Karup harnesses the benefits of futons to find new, unexplored solutions. All beds and sofa beds are made entirely from natural wood, thus ensuring a perfect balance between a culture of personal well-being and an eco-sustainable philosophy.
