Oversized Beds: For More Than Just Sleeping

A bed larger than necessary. It is one size larger than the room requires, almost filling the width of the room; its height is very low, with the mattress placed directly on a platform close to the floor. Because it is large enough, it is not just a place for sleeping—the image shows a laptop, several open books, a tray with a coffee cup, a half-folded blanket, and three or four mismatched pillows on the bed, indicating someone is working, reading, and eating on it. The bedding is washed linen, wrinkled and soft in texture, loosely and unevenly spread. There is no formal bedside table, but rather a low stool casually pulled over. Avoid: using a standard-sized bed, making the bedding neat and crisp, having the bed completely clean with only pillows, adding a high bed frame and upholstered headboard.

一張尺寸超過需求的床。它比房間的需要大了一號,幾乎佔滿房間的寬度;高度很低,床墊直接放在一個貼地的平台上。因為夠大,它不只是睡覺的地方——畫面中床上同時有一台筆電、幾本攤開的書、一個托盤上有咖啡杯、一條摺了一半的毯子與三四個不成套的枕頭,顯示有人在上面工作、閱讀、吃東西。寢具是洗過的亞麻,質地皺而柔軟,鋪得鬆散不平整。床邊沒有正式的床頭櫃,而是一張隨手拖過來的矮凳。避免:使用標準尺寸的床、把寢具鋪得平整挺括、讓床上完全乾淨只有枕頭、加入高床架與軟包床頭。
