The Design

About Pearl Inna Seng

Pearl Inna-sengen er den første i en serie produkter som implementerer den presenterte formfaktoren for soveplass. Den tradisjonelle rektangulære og estetiske runde formen tar ikke hensyn til særegenhetene ved kroppsbevegelser under søvn. Sengens formfaktor i form av en sirkelsektor oppfyller kriteriene for ergonomi. Denne formen åpner opp plass for bevegelse av bena og hindrer ikke frihet for hendene. Estetikken og emosjonaliteten er sammenlignbar med virkningen av en sirkelkontur, samtidig som den har en betydelig overlegenhet i funksjonalitet.

Unique Properties
The Pearl Inna bed noticeably differs from the well-known rectangular and round counterparts in its form factor of a sleeping place in the form of a circle sector. This form factor is closer to the criteria of ergonomics. Optimizing space, it gives freedom of movement and gives a comfortable sleep. The aesthetics and emotionality of this form is comparable to the effect of the contour of a circle, while having a significant advantage in functionality.
Dimensions & Packaging
4500 (L) x 2600 (D) x 380/510/1280 (H), mattress 3700 (L) x 2000 (D)

Production Technology
The manufacture of the product does not require expensive technologies and complex technical solutions. Bed materials are natural and environmentally friendly. The ribs of the frame are cut out of plywood on a CNC machine. Between them is a voluminous cardboard forming a spherical profile. The headboard and its sliding elements are made of bent plywood. The outer belt of the mattress is covered with a layer of high density foam. Upholstery materials can be leather, eco-leather, textiles.
Design Challenge
The most difficult thing about this project was to find a balance between maximum functionality, perfection of form and and the manufacturability of the content.
Research
Despite its dimensional characteristics, the Pearl Inna bed will organically fit into a room with dimensions of 6x4 meters, which is not uncommon for modern rooms. And even there, the bed will not be bulky thanks to two features: an external contour that leads the eye to infinity and a spherical console that hides the base in its shadow. This creates a feeling of floating, which, however, does not affect the reliability of the design.
Inspiration
The inspiration for this product was the shape of the seashell, which gives birth to the miracle of pearls.
The muse of this inspiration is my wife Inna, after whom this project is named. In Ukrainian, pearl sounds like perlina - Pearl Inna.
Project Duration
The Pearl Inna bed was designed in Kyiv, Ukraine.
Operation Flow
This bed has many additional features. 18 degree headboard angle, comfortable for reading and meditation. The soft outer belt of the mattress serves as a bedside bench anywhere along the contour. The spherical console of the body eliminates obstacles for the legs, and the space under it is easily cleared. The side facade in the open position turns into a mobile serving table with LED lamp. In the same position, access to the shelves for linen and cosmetics on the full extension rails opens.
