Lao K Sleep Culture Museum Introduction
The Old K mattress brand was established by founder Ms. Cheng Li-Hua in 1971, driven by a commitment to excellence and innovative design. Introducing Swiss spring machines and American tufting machines, Old K created ergonomic balance springs, fostering a comfortable and healthy sleep environment. As a renowned mattress brand in Taiwan, Old K has received the CNS certification, ISO9002 certification, and the MIT smile mark, becoming a representative of mattress quality in Taiwan. From the Red Sleeping Bed to Premium Beds: A Timeless Journey of Mattresses. Stepping into the Old K Sleep Culture Museum, visitors are greeted by an exhibition showcasing the evolution of mattresses across eras, from the vintage "Red Sleeping Bed" at grandmother's house to antique spring mattresses from the 70-year-old Japanese colonial period, and advanced mattresses that combine modern technology and ergonomic design. Moreover, the museum features a "Global Bedding Culture Experience Zone," where immersive walls and interactive devices guide visitors in exploring sleep cultures from around the world, telling the story of beds in both interesting and profound ways. The upgraded "Old K Craftsman Hall" resembles a living textbook factory, delicately portraying the spirit of craftsmanship and the evolution of mattress-making over the past half-century. Every detail in the exhibition conveys Old K's dedication to sleep quality and craftsmanship. Among the most surprising exhibits are the "Classic Old K" mattresses donated by long-time customers—these once hard-to-find bestsellers still demonstrate remarkable durability, with an average lifespan of up to 33 years, earning their place as legends in the mattress industry. It's not just about looking at beds, but also "playing" with them! The interactive experience in the museum includes a wealth of family-friendly activities, among which the "Dream Mini Bed" crafting experience is a favorite for children. Each little craftsman can create their own dream bed, allowing their creativity to run wild! Under the guidance of professional instructors, children learn about the basic structure and design logic of mattresses while crafting, and they can take their creations home as doll beds, which hold significant commemorative value. For adults, the "Guided Trial Experience" is a major highlight. Professional guides teach trial-laying techniques to help you find the mattress that truly fits you, delving into the entire mattress-making process, from internal structures to spring arrangements, without holding back! After visiting the mattresses, the museum also features a colorful sound and light maze and fun photo walls, while the outdoor area showcases a fairytale-style castle setting to satisfy children's curiosity.
