Coupe Bed
Made by Poltrona Frau
Designed by GamFratesi
GamFratesi's Coupé Bed takes its formal cues from the aerodynamic profile of classic sports car bodies. The tall upholstered headboard and low-slung frame are conceived as two distinct geometric forms, meeting in a fluid, compact composition that defines the bedroom with quiet authority.
Hand-upholstered in Pelle Frau leather, the piece reflects Poltrona Frau's century-long tradition of Italian saddlery craft. Every seam and panel is the work of artisans in Tolentino, where each hide is selected, cut, and stitched by hand. The result is a surface that carries warmth without softness of form.
- Slim metal feet create a suspended, weightless base
- Headboard and frame read as a single cohesive silhouette from across the room
- Available in a broad range of Pelle Frau leather colors and fabric options
- Made to order in Tolentino, Italy

What is Pelle Frau leather?
Pelle Frau is Poltrona Frau's proprietary leather, produced under strict quality standards and available in an extensive palette of colors and finishes. Each hide is selected and treated by hand at the company's atelier in Tolentino, Italy, resulting in a material with exceptional consistency, suppleness, and longevity.
Where is the Coupé Bed manufactured?
The Coupé Bed is made to order at Poltrona Frau's historic workshop in Tolentino, in the Marche region of Italy, where the brand has practiced its craft since 1912.
What upholstery options are available for the Coupé Bed?
The Coupé Bed is available in the full range of Pelle Frau leathers as well as fabric options, allowing the piece to be configured to suit a wide variety of interior palettes and architectural contexts.
How does the Coupé Bed's design reference automotive form?
GamFratesi drew from the aerodynamic silhouettes of classic European sports car bodies, specifically the coupé body style, to inform the relationship between the tall headboard and the low, horizontal frame. The two elements are geometrically distinct but resolve into a single, fluid composition.
