Today on Modern Builds I'll show you How To Build this Modern Box Sofa / Couch completely out of 2x4's! This is also a limited tools project and all cuts were made with just the circular saw! Free Plans are linked below :)

FREE PLANS:

Launching The Simple Cushion Co. is something we've been working on for a long time and I'm happy to provide a product that I've wanted as a DIY'er / woodworker. Repurposing old cushions, using a mattress, or settling for scratchy outdoor furniture cushions have been the 'standard' for handmade sofas and daybeds, and custom upholstery is expensive. The goal for Simple Cushions is simple :) to enable makers to build a sofa, couch, or daybed without compromising on cushions. we've got multiple sizes and covers:

MATERIALS AND SUPPLIES:
2x4's: Home Depot

MODERN BUILDS

Hi, My name is Mike Montgomery and I'm a MAKER; a designer, builder, and full-time content creator. Accessibility is my focus with Modern Builds, not simply accessibility of designs, but accessibility in materials, information, and projects themselves. I've focused on creating furniture and DIY projects that are simple enough that any beginner maker can accomplish, yet interesting enough that any expert might be inspired. Building and making is becoming less and less of an exclusive hobby and profession. My goal is to reduce that separation even further.

Well, I love it. Being a furniture/upholsterer consultant, this is a fab DIY project. As for The Simple Cushion Company--go get it! Let me know if you need any extra cushion promo. Upholstery is my jam.

nice work mike. You might want to consider adding some structural support. 2x4 on the flat won't carry the weight of an adult male and your couch will sag in weeks. Cheers!

Man, I love what you do with this Channel. Me and my dad are trying to build a dining room table with a hidden recessed middle for playing board games. It would be amazing if you made something like that in the future!

Great work on this project!

First and last 2x4 on the bottom cushion side could be sideways for a stronger frame. Really beautiful sofa! Good stuff!

That couch now costs $14, 000 due to lumber prices.

This sofa is versatile. I can put it in the living room or outside. Nice work, man!!

What might be cool is using wider cuts for the center boards on the sides. Then you could have a little shelves for your remotes and decor and stuff like that.

congratulations you nailed the design and also are a few of the youtube builders that is actually wearing work shoes dust and eye protection SAFETY IS #1 this is something that should be monitored by safety experienced viewers and collaborate with other builders that are showing videos of themselves in flip flops no shoes and even have kids walking around the work area without any shoes . THOSE ARE SOME OF THE FOLKS YOU OFTEN SEE WALING AROUND MISSING A TOE OR A FINGER OR AN EYE ETC.
