"TAKO", means "kite" in Japanese, and the image is light and airy, as if flying into the sky in a dream. A bed with a curved backrest that combines the lightness of solid wood with the comfort of a sofa and bedroom furniture collection. We consider the concept of "rest and sleep" comprehensively, and design the bed room space to create a sense of peace when all items are in harmony. As an expression of the peace of sleep, we geometrically capture the Japanese traditional tool “Magewappa'', which has both softness and solidity. We have made it our design language. While emphasizing craft elements created by human hands, we combine industrial elements with high production efficiency to create an intermediate area that is neither industrial nor craft. It is a design work that optimizes the combination of human wisdom and industrial knowledge, and was realized by the Italian company Conte. Products such as beds, bedside benches, nightstands, wardrobes, bar cabinets, writing desks/vanities and standing mirrors are made from the best and most suitable materials, wood, marble, metal, fabric, leather and glass.

These components are made of welded metal sheet, which when crossed together determine the main parallelepiped structure of different sizes, including a horizontal upper part inclined at 45 ° inwards, which is the base on which the top will be placed marble and a lower flat frame connecting the vertical support elements. Frame tables are created for both indoor and outdoor environments: the first ones made from a painted metal structure and a marble top of different finishes; the latter instead of a structure entirely in painted and treated metal.
