Story
Soft and welcoming
B&B Italia describes the Husk bed as soft and welcoming, simple yet complex in its geometry, with a headboard of strong personality punctuated by tufting.
The sheet ties the bed to the armchair of the same name, which started the series, through a shared research into softness and comfort.
