Designer Barbara Barry Chooses a FloBeds Mattress
Los Angeles designer Barbara Barry creates calm, refined interiors and furniture. So, when Barbara Barry named her own mattress in two leading design magazines, we paid attention. In both cases, her pick was a FloBed.

In Elle Decor‘s “What the Pros Know” feature, she explained why she recommends it:
“Flobeds is a fully customizable mattress that’s made with four layers of latex. In a bed for two, each person can adjust his or her side to get a suitable firmness level. I don’t know of any product like it.”

Barbara Barry’s Mattress Setup in House Beautiful
When House Beautiful asked Barbara Barry to list her favorite home products, from peonies to espresso machines, her mattress made the list. Specifically, it was a FloBed with Extra Firm and Firm latex layers underneath and Medium on top. She also pointed out that you can swap the layers for a custom fit.
What Her Setup Means
Her combination is a smart one. First, the Extra Firm bottom layer gives the spine solid support. Next, the Firm middle layer keeps the hips from sinking too far. Finally, the Medium top layer adds cushion at the shoulders. Of course, the right mix depends on your weight and sleep position, so your ideal layers may differ from Barbara Barry’s mattress setup.
Why Designers Like a Layered Latex Mattress
Designers care about how things are made, not just how they look. That is why we build every FloBed from separate layers of natural Talalay latex inside an organic cotton and wool cover. As a result, each side of the bed can have its own firmness. Also, if your needs change, you can swap one layer instead of buying a whole new mattress.
