comfortable against our skin than man- made fi bres, so it is with the materials used to upholster your mattress. Natural materials such as lambswool,
bamboo, cotton and horsehair allow moisture to be absorbed and released from the mattress, making it naturally more hygienic to sleep on. Some synthetic beds can make you uncomfortably hot, a natural bed keeps you cool in July and snug in January.
Fabrics A truly bespoke bed maker will offer a wide choice of mattress and divan fabrics to suit any bedroom design scheme. Why not take fabric swatches and wallpaper samples in store to co-ordinate the look and feel of the bed with the rest of your room design, in terms of both fabric tone and texture. The current trend is for beautifully
upholstered divans and headboards in luxurious, textured fabrics; velvet, satin, faux suede and leather. Co-ordinating piping detail also makes a real statement.
Headboards, heights and fi nishing touches Choice of headboard defi nes the style of your bed; over-sized, curved and buttoned headboards remain popular. From art deco inspired shapes and dramatic architectural arches to traditional detailed buttoned designs, the headboard really completes the look. With the divan base upholstered in matching fabric, you can do away with messy valances and showcase your bed with beautiful matching bed linen and accessories.
www.thimagazine.com July 2010 | Traditional Homes & Interiors 67 Bespoke craftsmanship extends to
every aspect of bed design. Practicality, height and proportion should be important considerations. Zip and link allows two
separate mattress and divan bases in one that can be separated, if the bed is for a guest room, for example. Three different heights create three very different looks, choose from; 17 centimetre shallow divan on legs, 25 centimetre medium depth sprung divan or 31 centimetre deep depth divans that can be climbed into like the princess and the pea! Wooden legs and traditional bun feet
add the fi nishing touches to shallow divans. We advise lockable castors on medium and deep depth divans to enable you to easily move the bed, if required.
