A Multi-Purpose Metal Bed for Indoors or Out
Investing in a piece of furniture requires a lot of thought. How will you use it? Who will use it? When and Where? The beauty of our Classico Metal Bed is not just in its stylish design but its versatility too. Fashionable and functional, it can be used for resting or relaxing; day or night, indoors or out.
Patio Day Bed – Day beds have been used since ancient times. The Greeks knew them as ‘Klines,’ (from which the word recliner was derived). The Victorians, as Fainting couches, for ladies suffering from over-exertion – a daily occurrence since their tight corsets restricted breathing! Use yours as a comfortable place to relax and unwind in the open air.
Guest Bed – Use as a stylish guest bed in your spare bedroom. The Classico metal bed is perfect if you don’t have overnight guests very often because it doubles as a sofa. This means the room can be used for other purposes the rest of the time and you can enjoy a stylish sofa in your reading room, games room, dressing room etc.
Conservatory Set – Besides the metal bed, our Classico range also includes a 2 seater sofa, armchair and m
atching coffee table. This makes the perfect conservatory suite; creating an elegant space with the added bonus of a day bed to lounge on or guest bed for visitors.
Outdoor Living Room – Or why not create a charming lounge area in your garden with the Classico range and spend more time outdoors! Anti-rust treated with hot-zinc bath, your lounge-garden will stay looking beautiful for years with virtually no maintenance. The sofa bed can then double as a lounger for relaxing in the sunshine and there’s plenty of room for two.
Hall or Reception Room – give your hallway or 2nd reception room a sophisticated look. Available in anthracite grey, pure white or cream, with a choice of 4 different patina finishes, it will complement any décor.
Making Our Metal Beds – New Technologies
We thought we should write something about laser cutting technology that we use with two of our latest metal beds and we plan to use in the future for new products.
You’ve probably noticed that the new forms of expression that have replaced austere white minimalism favour much more intricate designs, such as lace-inspired patterns.
In fact, lace, that has first been having a comeback in fashion, has been followed by similar designs in furniture, lighting and interior decorating in general in the last two years.
This was enabled by advanced technologies such as laser cutting machines that that can transfer a complicated design onto a metal sheet that can then be incorporated into an object such as bed.
Laser cutting technology uses so-called CAD (Computer-Aided Design) to CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing) techniques. The cutting edge technology means we can create highly elaborate designs, allowing us to produce striking, contemporary furniture for 
your home.
As the laser directs directs a high-powered laser beam that enables total precision cuts, this means the design can consists of almost anything, from detailed crochet-like mesh to having love words or your name written over your headboard!
Using laser-cut lace-like patterns is utterly modern, giving the ‘lace’ a new look and feel, accelerating the process of manufacturing and enabling utmost precision and detail. But at the same time it exudes nostalgia for the bygone times and re-invents the idea of superior craftsmanship. No wonder designers say the trend of giving everything a ‘lace make-over’ is here to stay.
Below are two examples where we introduced this technology, but we plan to introduce more products with this innovative and inspiring technology in the coming year!

Our Metal Beds in London Hotels and Hostels
Some of the summer visitors to London Olympics will sleep on our metal beds! We are very excited that Dover Castle Hostel & Flatshares decided to fit their accommodations with our Maya Metal Beds system.
