the upholstered headboard is evocative of a shell: it is an invitation to read, to watch tv or even write. the impression of continuity between the headboard and the base confers great visual lightness, even in the case of the version with the high headboard. the desdémone bed beautifully reflects the trend for a variety of uses, unencumbered by objects. in a way, the bed becomes the centre of the universe. the bed is a cocoon : it brings protection and serenity, becoming the ideal refuge.
enveloping, reassuring and above all evocative : of basking in the natural pools of the forest waterfalls of evisa, corsica, whose columns of water could have inspired the ridges of the headboard. unless the latter are more evocative to you of a ‘madeleine de proust’ such as sponge fingers or the gluttony of a clafoutis... moreover, this is a bed which merits being located in the very centre of a room, given that such a high degree of attention has been lavished on all of its aspects.
as with the ruché settee, the ruché bed is lifted from the ground by a simple, fine structure which supports a comfortable sleep platform. the headboard and frame are dressed with a distinctive quilting, a kind of boutis stitch of padding made using a cross-hatching of interrupted seams. alternately flattened by the stitches then set free, the fabric 'curls' in places, giving rise both to its unique appearance and to its name, ruché.
companion bed: frame in panels of black, white laminated particleboard (ribbed on the exterior), equipped with 4 lockable castors. intended to take a slatted base and bultex mattress h16cm. lower section can take either a storage drawer (internal height 17cm) or an occasional bed with slatted base, which takes a specially adapted bultex mattress 88 x 187 x 9cm. when pulled out, this occasional bed rises to the same height as the main bed, thanks to its automatically-unfolding feet.
