Understanding beauty’s organic and inextricable relationship with inherent goodness is at the heart of the award-winning Kalon Studios. Founded in 2007 by Michaele Simmering and Johannes Pauwen, the design studio quickly established itself as a beacon of sustainable American design. Based in Los Angeles, Kalon’s reverence for the items that surround us and compose our environments resonates with design enthusiasts with modern sensibilities. A seamless blend of contemporary aesthetics and American furniture craftsmanship come together to produce Kalon’s heirloom-quality furniture and décor for every room of the house.
Kalon’s design philosophy starts and ends with the elevation of everyday objects. Believing them to have an inherent beauty, the brand highlights the emotional resonance of the items we hold and use on a daily basis. What makes them so important, functional, and desirable? With this question in mind, Kalon designers approach each piece with a thoughtful emphasis on material integrity and user experience. No detail is too small, no improvement too impossible; the home demands intentionality in everything and Kalon partners with notable designers who hold the same belief.
Kalon Studios Simple Bed
Embodying the Kalon goal of simple and quiet aesthetics, the Simple Bed exudes an organic presence in modern bedrooms. Utilizing locally sourced American Ash wood, the modern bed frame has a light and luminous appearance that is coupled with delicately rounded edges, hand-crafted brass feet, and a luxuriously smooth, oil-rubbed, bare finished surface.
Part of a collection of Simple pieces that includes dressers, side tables, and a bench, the Simple Bed embraces its living materials heritage, letting the wood’s natural grain act as the primary detail. This authenticity in design is seen in every aspect of the Simple Bed and its fellow Simple furnishings and is reflected in Kalon’s commitment to honest, real furniture that serves each and every user.
Addressing a variety of spaces, the Kalon Studios catalogue includes living room furniture, kids' furniture, and dining room pieces. Each creation, from the Simple Side Table to the Trunk Bench—reflects Kalon’s deep respect for the environment. Natural wood, non-toxic finishes, brass details, and Scandinavian-inspired simplicity speak to a desire to reconnect the beauty of nature with the harmony of interior spaces.
