Gervasoni | Strap

Strap Bed treats the bed itself as a metaphor for the human body. It starts with a wooden frame structure, acting as the skeletal framework for the other elements to come together cohesively. Upon the frame rests a soft upholstery layer, like the musculature of our bodies, giving both strength and suppleness. A second layer draped onto the headboard and secured by a leather strap are like skin and ligament, providing a delicate balance between softness and tension.

From the sturdy wooden frame to the tactile upholstery, along with the gently bound headrest, the Strap Bed unfolds in a progression of softness, accompanying the body from sitting and leaning to sleeping. It is an intimate dialogue between body and structure—a quiet threshold that seeks balance between firmness and softness, holding a sense of calm between support and release.

Wood as bone, upholstery as flesh, bound by leather—together they form a cohesive figure, stable yet light, a still place for the body to dwell.
