Alcove bed by Maxalto: The inspiration

Maxalto Alcove Bed

The image of the four-poster bed immediately evokes a fantastic, almost dreamlike dimension, as well as associating with a more classic, dated style. 

With
Alcova by Maxalto
, all this is transported into the contemporary, without, however, omitting its essence: the reinterpretation of the company part of the B&B Italia group has, yes, the objective of making this fascinating piece of furniture more modern and up-to-date through a simpler and more essential design, which, however, does not take away from Alcova’s role as the main protagonist in the environment in which it is placed.

Maxalto Design a World Famous Brand

Known in particular for its production of sofas, which has made the Veneto-based brand famous throughout the world, Maxalto is distinguished more generally by a philosophy marked by excellence, as the name itself, coming from the Venetian dialect, suggests by its meaning, namely “the highest.”

This approach is also fully visible in the attention to detail of the Alcova canopy bed, from the headboard to the construction of the internal frame, to the different finishes available, all in the service of a single goal: to create iconic objects that can stimulate the customer’s imagination while guiding their choice.

Alcove Bed Design and Concept

Alcova by Maxalto is nothing less than a modern reinterpretation of a furniture item that has always been associated with the concepts of charm, elegance and romance: the four-poster bed.

Maxalto has successfully tried to detach the essence of the four-poster bed from the classic style to which it is traditionally juxtaposed, retaining the key elements of this furniture but re-proposing them in a minimalist way: the result is a clean and essential design in which all components are clearly visible and present more rigorous geometries.

While all this may take away some of the “mystical” aura surrounding an object such as a canopy bed, Maxalto has placed a firm focus on the materials used and their unquestionable quality. 

The look then flows neatly from the four vertical elements to the headboard to the wooden platform that supports the upholstered structure, all components that give Alcova a distinct personality, capable of changing the tone of the room.

Finishes and Features of the Alcove Canopy Bed by Maxalto

As per Maxalto’s philosophy, details are not additions, but rather the very essence of a piece of furniture, coming to define it and make it unique from others. Finishes, materials, or processing techniques are in fact the result of carefully thought-out choices and a craftsmanship approach that gives due importance to timing.

Alcova by Maxalto was also made following these logics, visible in every single element. Flaps of fabric can be attached to the structure that “wraps” the bed, almost encircling it within a cube formed by four vertical supports, to recreate the intimacy typical of a four-poster bed, or in case of need to shelter from the presence of insects.

Alcova also boasts a one-size-fits-all solid wood frame that can be declined in various finishes, including light and black brushed oak, gray oak, and brown oak. Net and mattress, on the other hand, are available in different sizes. Adding an extra touch of style is the headboard, which, depending on needs and tastes, can be made of fabric or leather.

Finally, for those who cannot give up the ultimate in comfort and aesthetics, Alcova can be combined with a collection of solid wood nightstands, including a bedside footboard that can also accommodate a convenient open compartment, for cramming in objects both to keep in sight and to always have at hand.
