*silly post, i think this interview is so weird*

alan talking about the aesthetics of bed design in 1999

“musician alan wilder’s ‘brutally contemporary’ hover bed looks like something out of a low-budget, sci-fi fantasy (red dwarf, perhaps, or blake’s seven). "what i look for in a bed," says the former member of pop group depeche mode, "is sleep, sex and aesthetics - the bed has to look good." he and partner hepzibah sessa snooze under a rubberised duvet, framed by polished aluminium panels, their heads resting on neoprene….

"an overlapping duvet ruins the aesthetic," says wilder, who now writes and produces music. there is no denying that the hover has a striking aesthetic, but both bed partners admit that it’s not the most comfortable of things to sleep in - especially if daughter paris is around. "If you extend your leg beyond the duvet, you tend to hit cold metal," explains wilder.”
