My dream bed

was presented at Milan Design Week 2016. Designed by Giuseppe Viganò for Bonaldo “Alvar” has upholstered module for the headrest, bed surrounds and foot and allows customisation which also concerns the type of quilting, the upholstery cover (which is fully removable) and the colour (a maximum of 8 different textile/leather covers can be ordered).

Unusual new designs at Milan Design Week 2016

It is always interesting to see some new ideas and unexpected approach to design like in the objects below:

"Book is a bookcase sofa created for people who enjoy reading, dreaming, tweeting or merely relaxing on their own or in good company. Shaped along the word Book, the sofa has a charming “pop” soul to fit every living space, where informality reigns and where friends gather. Book is perfect also to suit different settings such as museums, bookstores and stores." prospettivadesign.com
