Lines and proportions.
This custom made bed is made of pickled metal, wood and Plexiglas. The heavy metal sheets are fitted together almost like paper which, once assembled, create a three-dimensional structure, used as a bookcase or headboard for the bed. In the upper part there are four holes. Two used for insert lights that fall from the ceiling and create a luminous compartment for evening readings and the other two can accommodate two plants that frame the structure.

The bed surface, entirely made from wood, is perforated for the natural breathing of the mattress and suspended from the ground with four metal elements of the same size as the headboard, to highlight its modularity and material consistency. These thin but strong elements lift the mattress leaving it suspended. The Plexiglas that interrupts the bookcase is used as a support surface for the cushions, interrupting the cold metal and creating warmth.
