It's a Monday, so a short one.
A subjectively questionable bed made by hydroforming
Hydroforming is when you take a flat sheet of metal and use water pressure to push it into a die to take the shape of the cavity. This bed is called the Agnes bed which was displayed at Milan Design Week 2026. It's pink, sheet metal, with a soft puffed surface. It looks like an inflatable that solidified.
No takeaways and hence refreshing. The story it represents is art in its purest form. It's apparently rooted in the figure of Agnes Sampson who was a Scottish healer executed for witchcraft. The shape of the bed appears as work-in-progress caught 'mid-development.' Read about this story, it's interesting and refreshing. I also think no one should use this bed; it's clearly unsafe.
