TAIPEI
Double bed with upholstered headboard
Taipei is a double bed in fabric and canaletto walnut with upholstered headboard.
There has been a long time in the development of this project and in-depth research into the use of the different ones
sustainable materials with the aim of creating a product technically innovative and eco-sustainable.
Giant bamboo is a valuable natural resource: a hectare of this plant offsets the annual CO2 emissions of approximately 40 people, removing from the atmosphere 36 times more carbon dioxide than a mixed conifer and broadleaf wood. When we started to create the new Taipei bed, we were inspired by two concepts: the Orient and nature. Bamboo, from the outset, represented a creative fusion of these. We chose not to actually use it as a material but to use its shapes as a starting point to enhance the design with intriguing evocations. Evocations that led us to the capital of Taiwan and its most famous skyscraper. The development of this project involved long, indepth research into the use of various sustainable materials with the aim of creating a technically innovative and environmentally sustainable product.
