This unusual bed — from a new interior concept called The Greate Dandy. We asked Eleonora Cavalli, art director of Visionnaire, to tell about her.

Eleanor Cavalli: “The desire to explore beauty in all its forms led us to the concept of The Greate Dandy ... We were fascinated by the era of dandyism and the phenomenon itself. Much has been done for men in our new collection, but it would be wrong to think that the topic of dandyism is exclusively male. This bed for a girl's bedroom is really an unusual item. Just look at the headboard — and you will feel the atmosphere of a child’s dream, a fairy tale, England of the 19th century, an old estate and a mystery hiding behind its gate. The ornament on the fabric is created in the fashionable style of hyperrealism: multi-colored roses, as if crumpled by rain, seem to emit a luscious scent. And from the coal-black darkness peeping crows. (In our “fairy tale” the raven is the mistress's hand bird.) The headboard around the perimeter is lit by the light — it has its own role in the overall “drama”. The foot is covered in leather. The laconic form emphasizes the status of this thing. "
