BEND-E - Fabric double bed with upholstered headboard by Bolzan
Description
Bend-e by Zanellato/Bortotto is the re-edition of the Bend bed, a classic from the Bolzan catalogue with contemporary shapes, where the headboard and footboard form a single body, upholstered and covered in fabric, that runs along the structure and rests on wrought iron legs. A bed with a strong craftsmanship matrix, which brings the ancient workmanship of wrought iron into the world of design and enhances it with the fabric of a manufacture with a centuries-old history. With Bend-e Zanellato/Bortotto and Bolzan continue the revisiting work begun in 2022 to also become a tale of the land. Each element derives from the contribution of a zero-kilometre manufacture with a strong sustainable vocation: Bend-e transforms the iron structure into craftsmanship, drawing on older manual techniques, which the industrial approach has since pushed aside.'The original design of Bend-e,' explain Giorgia Zanellato and Daniele Bortotto, 'was inspired by furniture of the past made of wrought iron, whose shapes and curves were obtained by handwork directly on the material. Industrial evolution eventually pushed wrought iron away from design and relegated it to the production of traditional furniture with distinctly decorative characteristics, including beds. That's why we wanted to draw on that ancient imagery and rework it into a contemporary product, combining traditional craftsmanship with a design product.' The recovery of tradition prompted Zanellato/Bortotto to investigate possible colourings, eventually choosing natural pigmented waxes applied manually on iron. The investigation into the short supply chain then led the designers to Torri Lana, the natural fabric factory in the Bergamo area, a point of reference for architects and designers since the middle of the last century, with which Bolzan is starting a collaboration in 2022, once again directed by Zanellato/Bortotto. This meeting led the designers to explore for Bolzan the immense archive of Torri Lana, which chronicles the evolution of Italian textile design over more than a century. The fabric chosen, Filled, is a cotton and wool composition designed in the 1980s by Jole Gandolini and used, over time, for international fittings and furnishings signed by great masters. Rescued from over 500,000 samples in the Torri Lana archive, Filled has been revisited for Bolzan in five colours that perpetuate and modernise a chapter in the history of Made in Italy creativity. 'Investigating the Torri Lana archive allowed us to discover fabrics that were designed decades ago and that over time have clothed some historical pieces of Italian design,' explain Zanellato/Bortotto. 'We then selected one of these designs and worked to rework it with contemporary material and colour compositions.' Bend-e is a new chapter in the long tale of territory in the form of design that is the Bolzan catalogue.
