Week 6 : Bed design

According to wikipedia, a bed is a large piece of furniture used as a place to sleep, and as a primary place for relaxation and sexual activity. Today's beds usually consist of a mattress places on top of a box spring inner-sprung base. The box spring is a large mattress-sized box containing wood and springs that provide additional support and suspension for the mattress.

As for me, bed plays an important role which effects the environment of a place. For example, the overall environment of a room depends largely especially on the shape of a bed. Why i said so??? This is because nowadays, people are getting more and more fussy just because their urge are hunting more on the design of their bed.
