Description
The Nuvola Bed by Danish design studio Says Who for Heal’s – literally meaning ‘cloud’ in Italian – lives up to its name with cloud-like curves in a choice of fabrics. Soft and pillowy, the design creates a chic but comfortable frame for sweet dreams, while sitting low to the ground with solid wooden feet in a selection of finishes. Effortlessly stylish.
Our Stylist Says
I really like this bed because of its understated elegance and versatile design. The boucle tweed fabric adds a subtle textural interest that works well in contemporary or modern interiors, as well as more classic settings when paired with cosy textiles and layered bedding. The black painted beech feet give it a sleek, grounded look that complements a variety of colour schemes-from neutral palettes to more vibrant schemes. It’s particularly good in bedrooms aiming for a minimalist or Scandinavian vibe, but I’d also recommend styling with plush cushions and throws for a softer, more inviting look. Practical tips include keeping bedding simple to highlight the fabric's texture, or mixing in patterned cushions for a bit of personality without overwhelming the sleek design.

About Heal's
A Rich Legacy in Furniture Design
Heal's is a well-known British furniture store with a history that spans over 200 years. It began in 1810 when John Harris Heal and his son started a business for feather products but soon moved into furniture.
By the 1900s, almost everyone in London knew Heal's for its great furniture. Interestingly, they were also among the first to sell electric lights in Britain. During World War II, their main store even helped by making parachutes for soldiers.
Influences and Design Philosophy
A significant part of Heal's story is Sir Ambrose Heal, who worked there for 60 years, from 1893 to 1953. He had a unique idea combine the beautiful designs from the Arts and Crafts Movement with affordable manufacturing.
This meant more people could buy well-designed furniture without breaking the bank. If you visit the Heal's store on Tottenham Court Road in London, you'll see a cool spiral staircase and a statue of a bronze cat, both of which show off the company's unique style.
Modern Expansion and Growth
While Heal's has a long history, they're always looking forward. In 2001, a company named Wittington Investments bought Heal's, helping it to grow and open stores in many cities, including Manchester and Leeds.
They've also started selling products online, aiming to be a modern e-commerce store with physical showrooms. Their main Tottenham Court Road store celebrated 200 years in 2018. Recently, they revamped it, making it even better for shoppers.
