Most sofa manufacturers simply don’t make ones with built-in storage, and those that do generally do so at the expense of style. Not these eight. Here, streamlined and stylish sofas and sectionals that do double-duty as hidden storage:
Above: Ikea’s Vallentuna Modular Sectional is completely modular and can be set up in multiple ways, but best of all, the seats each flip up to reveal storage. The chaise section even pulls out to create a bed; $1,545. Above: West Elm’s Harmony Sleeper Sectional features a sofa with a queen-sized fold-out mattress and a chaise with storage, and comes with three lumbar pillows and two throw pillows; currently on sale for $3,038. Above: Article, a company formerly known as Bryght, offers a range of sofas (and other furniture) in the $1,000 to $3,000 price range. The Soma Sleeper Sectional has a fold-out memory-foam bed and a chaise that flips up to reveal ample storage for pillows, linens, and blankets; $1,999. Above: Room & Board’s Oxford Popup Platform Sleeper Sofa has a trundle bed that pulls out and pops up to form a queen-sized bed; storage is hidden in the chaise. The sofa comes in two sizes, 93 inches and 123 inches (pictured); from $3,898. Above: Crate & Barrel’s Reston Collection offers a wide range of modular options to suit your needs; the Reston 2-Piece Trundle Sleeper with a storage chaise starts at $4,299. Above: A recommendation from Annie: “My sister has the Friheten sofa from Ikea. It’s comfortable, folds out into a spacious bed, and one whole panels lifts up to reveal spacious storage within—a godsend for a petite apartment with a baby. She uses the storage for spare guest linens and pillows, for when family (like me) comes to stay.” The Friheten Sleeper Sectional is $599. Above: The entire seat of Joybird’s midcentury-inspired Huges Sofa flips up to reveal a hidden storage compartment; currently on sale for $1,469. Above: Pottery Barn’s Townsend Roll Arm Sectional features plush seating and a chaise with storage; to access it, simply remove the cushion and the lid that covers the hidden compartment. It starts at $2,495.
