Vintage Modern Issue

The breadth and scope of Habitus has always been extraordinary. With how we live at heart of every issue, we have stepped it up with Guest Editor David Flack of Flack Studio shaking the ‘how’ and looking at new ways to make a house a home. With Vintage Modern as the issues theme, we look at the way iconic design has stayed with us, how daring pieces from the past can add the wow factor and how architecture and good design defy the pigeon hole of their era.

Habitus loves …sleeping

As Charles Caleb Colton once pointed out, bed is a bundle of paradoxes: ‘we go to it with reluctance, we quit it with regret; we make up our minds every night to leave it early, but we make up our bodies every morning to keep it late’. Here we look at 8 designs that help make sleeping even more pleasurable.


Alcova

Designed by: Antonio Citterio

Why we love it: This four poster bed places the bed centre stage. Clean lined and spacious, the Alcova by Maxalto suits voluminous rooms and warehouses spaces.
