The Laputa Bed

Fascinated by Eastern Mythology? Or just a Literature Freak who happens to love Jonathan Swift’s Gulliver’s Travels? Well then the Laputa Bed may just catch your fancy whose design can be best described as surreal!

“in the tinted aluminum ‘laputa’, named for the fantastic island in jonathan swift’s’gulliver’s travels’, he reconfigures the double bed for two sleepers lyinghead-to-head or toe-to-toe, enforcing physical separation between the absent lovers’ bodies. thebed’s uncanny deformation, heightened in the silk coverings printed in disturbingly faux version of kuramata’s star terrazzo, evokes its function of dreams, memories, and nightmares as well as the locus of the life cycle:of suffering, of rest, of birth, sex, and death.”
