I believe the furniture industry was in its prime back in the ’60s when Mid-Century Modern design style took the world by storm and astoundingly furniture pieces began pouring into homes and offices. The iconic Eames Lounge Chair and Florence Knoll Sofa are among my favorites from the era.
After a period of not-so-great designs, today’s furniture designers and artists alike are creating revolutionary pieces with timeless grace and comfortable functionality. Take Lattice Day Bed by Mexican artist Andrés Monnier, for instance, who sought the coveted synergy between art, design, and sculpture for this unique daybed.
Known for creating pieces with fire and art objects; functional furniture with rock, glass, concrete, wood, and metal; Andrés unveiled his first collection made from rock, establishing it as his signature material. One of his most revered pieces, the Lattice Day Bed, is currently on exhibition in Galerie Philia, Mexico.

Part of the Psicosis Mineral Collection, it is a minimalist daybed made of grey quarry stone. The original design for the piece features a stainless steel and marble base, with variations made from white marble, travertine, volcanic rock, basalt, or granite rock.
The unique furniture design represents the designer’s interpretation of dreams, while it serves as a conduit for transformative energy and actualizing those dreams.
Monnier’s design has left people in awe of its various interpretations and the way it can be incorporated into an interior. The roughly hewn form of the sculptural Lattice daybed is perfect for all sorts of spaces and adds a nature-inspired austere aura to it.
