Story
Carlo Colombo, 2017
Poliform's technical details credit Carlo Colombo with the design, dated 2017. The page names the wrap-around headboard as the distinctive feature of the bed.
Two small wings
The headboard wraps round to form two small wings. The page says the shape recurs in the chest of drawers and bedside tables of the same series, though it does not name that series.
