about
A great option for modern family rooms, Richard is a high sectional sofa bed with tapered metal legs of 13 cm of height, slim track armrests and boxed sided seat and back cushions. With its stunning dynamic look it sports a sleek structure raised from the floor, which is great for a sleeper sofa worthy of a place in a busy living area. It is available as a 2 or 3 seater or in a corner L-shaped design, as well as in larger u-shaped layouts. Depending on the model the built-in fold out bed comes as a single, large single, small double or standard double bed for two persons.
What sets this sofa bed apart is its mechanics. Mounting a metal action mechanism on a frame with high legs is not child's play. Working with Italian mechanism manufacturer Lampolet, Bodema has created a sofa bed that is actually raised from the floor, without central supports. The entire weight of the mechanism and bed base unloads onto a frame that sits on tall feet. The final aesthetic result is impeccable, just like a true living room sectional sofa. No longer a mere decorative accessory, the tapered legs are an essential component.
The actual opening is easy, safe and smooth: just pull the backrest towards you to fold out a ready to use slatted bed and reveal a pillow storage compartment.
For maximum comfort we have chosen a Simmons pocket sprung mattress. The huge amount of independent springs ensures a good night’s sleep. Coils are compressed using the exclusive Lap-seal technology, which makes them flexible but resilient to stress. The result is a high-end mattress that adapts to the shape and weight of the body, limits the motion transfer when shifting position while sleeping and gently supports the spine.
The backrest and seats are filled with polyurethane foam in different densities. Upholstery comes in a wide choice of fabrics, velvets or leathers in many colours and patterns. The high “stiletto” legs are available in chrome or matt black finishes.
In Richard, every construction detail reveals a love for craftsmanship at its best. The encounter between technological innovation and winning aesthetics makes for a sleeper sofa that is both beautiful to look at during the day and simply cozy and welcoming as a bed during the night.
