Designing a bedroom goes beyond aesthetics; ultimately, it is a purpose-driven space that needs to facilitate sleep. So, how do you build a bedroom that works as well as it looks? Ferris Rafauli, the Ontario-based interior designer who has designed stunning homes for Wayne and Janet Gretzky, Drake, and Mark Zuckerberg, has a few ideas.
As part of his continued collaboration with the Swedish Family-run mattress company, Hästens (famed for their $1 million mattress), Ferris sat down with Homes & Gardens to discuss how to design a bedroom that prioritizes performance. Alongside the launch of the newly refined Grand Vividus and drēmər® 'sleep instruments' (Hästens' word for mattresses), we discussed how these products support restoration and performance, the evolution of Ferris's partnership with them, and how the best bedrooms are about taking away, not adding.
