- Distinctive paper-clip inspired feet wrap around the upholstered corners, giving the bed an instantly recognisable detail that sets it apart from conventional designs
- Slatted beech plywood base with adjusters enables personalised support
- Extensive fabric and leather upholstery selection makes it possible to tailor the bed's character from tactile and relaxed to rich and sophisticated
The Softbay Bed by Porada surrounds the bedroom with generous curves, sumptuous upholstery and beautifully crafted walnut feet. Its enveloping form creates an irresistible centrepiece designed for slower mornings and deeper relaxation.
Designed for the Art of Switching Off
The Softbay Bed by Porada brings a wonderfully indulgent quality to the bedroom, with generous curves and softly upholstered forms that make the bed feel inviting before you even climb into it. Designed by Giuseppe Viganò, its rounded silhouette moves away from rigid bedroom furniture, creating a more relaxed and enveloping centrepiece. The result is a bed with an unmistakable sense of comfort, designed to make the bedroom feel warmer, softer and more inviting.
Softness, Framed in Walnut
The beauty of Softbay comes from the contrast between its generous upholstery and the precisely crafted timber elements that hold everything together. At each corner, solid Canaletta walnut or ash feet extend around the upholstered structure in a distinctive shape inspired by a paper clip. Canaletta walnut brings warmth, strength and lasting appeal, while its naturally varied grain ensures that every set of feet has its own character. For the upholstery, Porada offers an extensive selection of fabrics and leathers, with the sumptuous Bouclage fabric particularly suited to the bed's rounded form.
A Bedroom Built Around Comfort
Softbay is made to become the natural focus of the bedroom. Its generous upholstered body creates an inviting sense of softness, while the rounded edges soften the overall architecture of the room and make the bed feel beautifully approachable. Choose a tactile fabric to emphasise its cocooning character, or introduce leather for a more tailored expression. The natural timber feet add just enough definition beneath the upholstery, giving the design a sophisticated balance between softness and structure.
Let Softness Set the Tone
The character of Softbay lends itself beautifully to a bedroom layered with tactile fabrics, warm timber and atmospheric lighting. Pair it with the Porada Pileo Table Lamp on a bedside table to echo its organic forms, or introduce the Porada Giove Mirror elsewhere in the room to bring an expansive reflective element into the scheme. For a bedroom that feels deeply considered rather than overly styled, Softbay provides the perfect foundation. The Porada Softbay Bed is a piece designed around one of the simplest luxuries of all: wanting to spend a little longer in bed.
