Story
High sides and seams
The page names two features that define the bed: high sides running along the perimeter, and seams made with the insertion of a prominent profile, which it calls sartorial.

Any mattress support
Because the lateral sides are tall, the bed accepts any type of mattress support, from traditional fixed ones to those with a manual headboard and footboard mechanism.
