Fron­zoni ​’64 Bed

The Fron­zoni ​’64 Bed is avail­able in three sizes ranging from a single, matri­mo­nial and finally a Euro King. The frame and legs are made of square metal tubing and include cross bracing across the bottom of the end legs for addi­tional support. The Bedstead is made up of wooden slats. The complete unit is avail­able in matte anthracite or matte white lacquer finish. 

Fronzoni’s work was deeply influ­enced by both Mies van der Rohe’s and Marcel Breuer’s philoso­phies of synthe­sis and subtrac­tion and is evident in his mini­mal­ist ​’64 Collec­tion designed in 1964 for Cappellini that included a coffee table, dining tables of various sizes, a dining chair, a lounge chair, and even beds of varying sizes. Fron­zoni used squared tubular steel to render recti­lin­ear shapes that func­tion as the outlines of his furni­ture, defin­ing planes of space. These slim-profile outlines create an exquis­ite levity within the result­ing objects – their respec­tive support struc­tures allow the viewer to liter­ally see through them. Exam­ples of Fronzoni’s ​’64 Collec­tion are included in the perma­nent collec­tions of numer­ous museums worldwide.
