About the project
BADESOFA was founded with the goal of revolutionizing the bathing and wellness experience, originally in Germany and now globally. Our Bath Sofa is a direct translation of the brand name from German Badesofa. Bathtubs have one thing in common: they are often too large or steep, and they are almost always too hard and uncomfortable. For our founder, even bathing in her beautiful but oversized bathtub felt more like acrobatics than relaxation. This discomfort was the catalyst for her to tackle the problem and develop the first comfortable bathtub cushion: BADESOFA
