(i’m not complaining but) this bed has been all over cyberspace now — and i’m writing about it anyway, because it is too cool. behold the scoop bed from by guido rosati for saba italia. it’s a bed and a sofa, a very handy design if living in smallish dwellings where space is limited. they make a delicious square version too, if you must be linear.

it’s too bad we don’t have availability in the states, because that square one looks like a big fluffy sleepy swimming pool to me. that i would like to go swimming in.

i must say that i haven’t seen anything this swinging since larry gordon’s photo of hef’s bed (not that i’ve seen it in person!).

    Too fun, Gigi! Hmm…another to add to my dream house. The only thing is, do you fall through the crack in the two parts when your sleeping?

    the square version of this “sofa/bed” would solve almost ALL of my furniture needs. love it!

    it’s like a giant swimmin hole. and the waves are sheets. ahhhhh…

    seriously, i love both the multitasking round and square versions. they were very thoughtfully designed.
