blAnKet bed Warmth, softness and a sense of protection are the feelings which inspired the Blanket bed designed by Alessandro Busana for Bonaldo. The roles have been inverted and the blanket has been transformed from a mere accessory to the main star. Indeed, a large, soft quilt makes up the base of this bed, supporting the mattress and, from the foot of the bed, it has been folded over thus forming the headrest.
“The bed is an object we interact with for a long period and with the most of our body”, explains designer Alessandro Busana. “Making it comfortable not only materially but also in terms of perception seemed to me an essential starting point. Hence the choice of a blanket, considering the symbol it represents in the collective imagination”. The almost archetypal nature of this concept makes Blanket an iconographic bed immediately recognizable, one that is capable of playing the starring role and arousing emotions through a simple yet extraordinary rolled up blanket. Bed surface sizes: queen size 154x205 cm / 160x200 cm / 180x100 cm / king size 194x205 cm Bed sizes: L 260/265 cm x W 180/200 cm wide Headboard: 300 g. rolled up quilt Upholstery: fully removable fabric cover
thedUcK cOffee tAble Theduck is a surreal and functional coffee table, an ironic and fun metaphor of an unusual pet. “The picture of a faithful duck sitting beside the sofa, with a coffee table on its head, ready to hold remote controls, smartphones, books and magazines, was so absurd and unlikely to me that I was immediately captured by it”, the fun comment of designer Alessandro Busana. Thanks to the different colour options, the illuminated version and its eccentric nature, Theduck can be both amazing and functional anywhere in the home, from the living room to the bathroom, the bedroom and even the garden. Material: coloured polyethylene available in many colours, also for outdoor use. Dimensions: 43 cm high, 41 cm deep, total width of 34 cm, table top diameter of 33 cm. Light version: illuminated version with rechargeable battery and remote control to change the colour of the light.
