Louis Vuitton Unveils New ‘Bed Trunk’
Louis Vuitton presented its new ‘Bed Trunk’ at the Louis Vuitton Milano Via Bagutta store as part of Milan Design Week held in April.
The new piece draws inspiration from the first ‘Bed Trunk’ designed in 1865 by the company’s founder, Louis Vuitton, for explorers around the world, reinterpreting it with a unique idea that merges tradition and modernity.
The exterior is covered in Louis Vuitton’s classic Monogram canvas, while the interior houses an elegantly structured bed. An innovative combination of aluminum and beech wood allows the trunk to quickly and easily transform into a stable bed frame.
The mattress, specially tailored in four sections to support the owner’s comfort, is covered with memory foam impact-absorbing, low-resilience pads, and supported by the same cotton straps that have served to keep belongings safe during travel since the earliest Louis Vuitton trunks.
The mattress is encased in a waterproof cotton embroidered with the classic Monogram pattern, and the bed’s head can be elevated to the optimal angle. A small beech wood side table is also included on the edge of the trunk. It is currently available for pre-order.
