Twils. Design by Achille Castiglioni (1992), re-edited by Twils.

Description
There are armchairs that convert to beds. Polet is a bed that becomes an armchair. Or, perhaps it would be more precise to say a throne, with its soaring backrest that makes it a delightfully ironic and functional piece of furniture, a design dreamt up by the genius Achille Castiglioni thirty years ago.

It's the simple things that change our lives. Polet adapts to our needs and makes us feel at home. Castiglioni designed Polet to open and close as intuitively as possible, just like a deck chair.

A mixture of the nomadic and the permanent, a bit like a camp bed but also a throne. Polet is the creative genius of Achille Castiglioni, who came up with the idea for his seaside house. The wood is black lacquered beech and the pins are brass: the beauty of this armchair-bed is in the details.
