Two twin beds pushed collectively equals a king-size mattress (“tremendous king” by UK requirements). With that easy equation in thoughts, Harriet Churchward and Matt Pescod of The Quist—see The King of Treehouse Lodges within the UK—got here up with a intelligent headboard that permits them to supply visitors an inviting bed room with both two twins or a king-size mattress.
The key to the design? A pair of upholstered headboards are suspended on a wooden hanging pole, and might, just like the mattresses, both be pushed collectively or aside. Have a look.

Above: The hanging headboard concept was launched in a temper board created by Sophie Rowell of Côte de Folks, who consulted on the design of The Quist’s different bed room, the top-floor Tent Room (see it right here). “We went in a unique route in that room,” says Harriet, “however I discovered this to be an amazing answer for a mattress that wanted to be convertible from twin to tremendous king.”
Above: The acquainted hanging headboards are modeled after old style leather-based gymnasium mats. Harriet felt all leather-based could be “too chilly for bedtime,” particularly paired with the room’s thatched ceiling, and determined so as to add colour by utilizing Upholstery Denim procured on-line from The Fabric Store. The headboards had been made to Harriet’s specs by Shane Allard Upholstery. The striped coverlets are from Australian line Society of Wanderers. “Arrange as twins, the beds are ready for a few younger adventurers to leap into them on the finish of the day,” says Harriet.
