FABRI is a family-run furniture brand specializing in customizable upholstered furniture, particularly sofa beds and corner sofa beds. The name comes from the Latin word fabri, meaning "craftsman," reflecting the brand's deep connection to traditional furniture making. While FABRI itself represents a new generation, its roots go back more than 30 years. The story began when the founders' father started producing upholstered furniture and developed extensive expertise in comfort, construction, and durability. Today, that knowledge forms the foundation of the FABRI brand.
Over the past decade, the European furniture market has undergone a noticeable shift toward flexible and multifunctional design. In many urban environments, living spaces are becoming more compact, encouraging furniture solutions that can serve multiple purposes. Sofa beds and modular configurations have therefore become increasingly relevant.
FABRI responds to this development with designs that combine comfort, practicality, and aesthetics. By integrating seating and sleeping functions into a single piece of furniture, the brand creates solutions that optimize space without compromising on design. These pieces are designed to adapt to contemporary lifestyles, where living spaces often serve multiple functions throughout the day.

Although FABRI is still a relatively young brand, it builds on a strong foundation of experience. The family company originally worked with wooden furniture before specializing in upholstery, providing valuable insight into materials, construction techniques, and long-term durability. This background remains a key element of the brand's identity today.
Another defining characteristic of FABRI is its focus on personalization. The company integrates digital tools such as a 3D configurator and augmented reality (AR) visualization, allowing clients to customize dimensions, fabrics, and configurations in an intuitive way. Customers can experiment with different options and visualize how the sofa will look in their own interior, making the design process more interactive and transparent.
The growing demand for personalization reflects broader changes in the furniture market. Consumers increasingly expect products that match their individual lifestyles and aesthetic preferences. Beyond selecting colors or fabrics, many customers want to adjust dimensions, functional elements, and layouts to suit their living space. FABRI's digital tools make this process accessible while maintaining a clear design structure.
In terms of design, the brand focuses on clean, balanced silhouettes that remain relevant over time. Current collections reflect the growing popularity of neutral color palettes, minimal forms, and textured upholstery fabrics that add warmth and depth to interiors. Functionality is carefully integrated into the design. In many of FABRI's sofa beds, the sleeping function is almost invisible at first glance, preserving a refined and lightweight appearance.

Broader European market
International expansion is the next step for the company. While most production has traditionally been distributed within Poland, FABRI is increasingly looking toward the broader European market. Western Europe, including countries such as Germany, the Netherlands, and the Scandinavian region, is particularly interesting due to its strong design culture and appreciation for functional, high-quality furniture. Participating in international trade fairs such as Meble Polska in Poznań allows the company to connect with potential partners and strengthen its presence beyond its domestic market.
Next five-ten years
Looking ahead, FABRI aims to continue developing its product systems while expanding its international network. At the same time, the company remains committed to the values that define the brand: craftsmanship, durability, and thoughtful design.
'Over the next five to ten years, we aim to strengthen our presence across the European furniture market while continuing to develop our product systems and digital tools. Expanding international partnerships and reaching new markets will be an important part of this strategy.'
'The strength of our company lies in its family heritage. Over the years, our family has developed deep experience in furniture production, and today, the next generation is actively involved in shaping the future of the brand.'
Multiple perspectives
FABRI represents a continuation of family craftsmanship combined with a new generation of ideas. While the company is built on decades of upholstery experience developed by our father, the next generation is now actively involved in shaping the brand's direction.
With backgrounds in architecture, marketing, and finance, we approach furniture design from multiple perspectives. By combining production expertise with digital tools such as configurators and AR visualization, we aim to create furniture that is flexible, refined, and well-adapted to contemporary living.
