At night and in dreams, completely different worlds open their doors. You might even say we all have two lives! In our waking lives, we do all that we want and can – and some of what we should and must. When it’s time to sleep, our true free time begins, when all we have to do is let go. But the transition to dreamland is not always easy, as you might know. A beautiful bedroom can help – as can the right bed. It’s often on holiday that you discover a whole new set of bed options: a luxurious box-spring bed in a fancy vacation home, or a heavenly night in a hotel that makes you question your own mattress. But you don’t have to travel that far to take your bed to the next level: Next week, the Auping Essential pop-up store is making a stop in Berlin. The Dutch brand has been dedicated to the dark half of the day since 1888. Yes, the Dutch have had a few years under their belt to perfect comfortable sleep. They know that some people prefer to sink into their mattress a bit, or even feel embraced by it, while others prefer firm support.
A brief assessment of your preferences is all it takes to design the bed of your dreams. And if the mattress fits, the rest is a piece of cake. This is where it starts with the Auping: choose your topper, headboard and slat base. Then it’s time for the frame. One of Auping’s bestsellers, the “Essential” frame, is sustainable and made from 100 percent recycled materials. To celebrate its 10th anniversary, it’s available in a limited edition in “Sunny yellow”. If you dream of waking up in a bright and sunny bed, you might want to stop by the pop-up store in Mitte where the bed is currently being displayed. And maybe you’ll be lucky: an Essential bed in Sunny Yellow is being raffled. But in case this dream doesn’t come true, investing in a good bed is probably the best way to ensure a good night. Sweet dreams indeed.
