Castaway Bed introduces a new way to share sleep space without compromise.
Designed to move beyond traditional split-king and adjustable systems, Castaway Bed allows two individuals to maintain distinct sleep zones while preserving the presence of a unified king bed when desired.
At the core of the system are two motorized Twin XL bases paired with a concealed, patent-pending center platform anchored beneath the frame. When closed, the bed presents as a cohesive king. When opened, the bases separate to reveal defined individual spaces—offering true physical separation within the same footprint.
The center platform remains grounded at all times, ensuring structural stability while simplifying the mechanism. Beyond separation, the expanded configuration can also create additional usable space for co-sleeping, offering flexibility that standard king dimensions cannot provide.
Castaway Bed is compatible with select adjustable bases, allowing users to retain elevation and comfort features while gaining spatial adaptability.
By rethinking how boundaries function within the bedroom, Castaway Bed expands the possibilities of shared sleep—introducing configurational flexibility without sacrificing stability or design integrity.
