Monumental Scale. Soft Architecture. A Personal Canvas.
Standing at a commanding 162cm (64"), The Solstice is not merely a sleeping surface—it is soft architecture. Designed to dominate the vertical plane of the primary suite, the massive arched headboard acts as a "sunrise" silhouette, creating a dedicated "room within a room" that envelops the sleeper in tactile luxury.
This piece bridges the gap between the playful "Neotenic" sculpture of the 1970s and the bespoke tailoring of Savile Row. A solid oak rim defines the curve, while the body is fully wrapped in premium architectural wool. The result is a bed that looks like art but feels like a protective cocoon.
-
The "Mural" Effect (162cm): Most retail beds stop at 120cm. At 162cm, this headboard draws the eye to the ceiling, dramatically increasing the perceived scale of the room. It eliminates the need for artwork above the bed, acting as a fabric mural that grounds the space.
-
Acoustic Dampening: In modern homes dominated by glass, stone, and hardwood, sound can be harsh. The massive surface area of this wool headboard absorbs sound, hushing the room’s acoustics to create a hotel-like sense of calm.
-
The Split-Arch Logic: A tailored vertical channel runs down the center of the headboard. This is not just a visual detail to emphasize verticality; it creates a modular structure that allows this massive piece to fit through tight elevators and stairwells.
-
Curated Customization: We recognize that the bed must anchor the room's color story. This frame is the canvas for your vision—whether that requires a calming Oatmeal Bouclé, a moody Olive Velvet, or a stark Terracotta Wool.
Bespoke Fabrication

Frequently Asked Questions (
Q: How do I select a custom color?
A: We view the Solstice bed as a commission. While we stock our signature neutral wools for quick delivery, you can select from our "Atelier" color range (including Earth, Moss, Navy, and Rust). Simply select "Custom Commission" at checkout, and we will mail you a swatch kit to confirm your choice before production begins.
Q: Will the 162cm headboard fit in my elevator?
A: Yes. We engineered the Solstice for urban access. The headboard is designed as two vertical "quarter-circle" panels that lock together seamlessly during assembly. This ensures the bed can fit through standard elevators and stairwells despite its monumental installed height.
Q: Can I use my own fabric (COM)?
A: Trade Only: Yes. For verified trade accounts, we accept Customer’s Own Material (COM) to ensure the bed perfectly matches your drapery or lounge seating. Please contact our Trade Concierge for yardage requirements.
Q: Is the wood trim durable?
A: Yes. The arched rim and spherical legs are solid oak (not veneer), sealed with a matte commercial-grade lacquer. They act as a "bumper" for the fabric, protecting the edges from wear and tear while providing a sturdy structural foundation.

Built Different, Built Forever
Here's what separates a Hulmara bed from mass-market furniture.
Master-Grade White Oak
From responsibly managed forests. Each piece is hand-selected for its grain character, density, and structural integrity.
Anti-Warp Engineering
Solid-core construction with high-density birch plywood cores and thick hand-selected oak veneers. Stays perfectly straight for decades.
Silent Joinery
Heavy-duty bed-bolt hardware and traditional mortise-and-tenon joints. 30–40mm thick rails — zero squeaks, zero vibration.
Orthopedic Beech Slats
Premium European Beech slats (18–20mm) for superior strength, natural spring, and optimal airflow for your mattress.
Hand-Sanded 2K Finish
Every bed is hand-sanded and sealed with a diamond-tough 2K performance lacquer. Raw oak beauty with stain-proof protection.
No MDF. No Shortcuts.
Zero particle board anywhere in the build. Solid timber meets precision high-end engineering — what you see is what you get.
Thirty Days of Craft
From raw timber to your bedroom — what happens in between.
01 Timber Selection Day 1–2
Every bed begins with a single board. Our master selects European white oak for grain consistency, density, and character — rejecting roughly 40% of timber before a cut is made.
02 Milling & Joinery Day 3–12
Mortise-and-tenon joints are cut by hand and machine in sequence. No cam locks, no dowels, no shortcuts. Each joint is test-fitted dry before final assembly.
03 Fluting & Shaping Day 12–18
The signature reeded panels are milled from solid oak veneer — each flute precisely routed to catch light at varying angles. Rounded corners are shaped and sanded through four grits.
04 Hand Finishing Day 18–25
Three coats of low-VOC matte lacquer, hand-sanded between each layer. The finish is designed to develop a subtle patina over decades — a living surface, not a sealed one.
05 Inspection & Documentation Day 25–30
Your completed bed is photographed and filmed in our workshop — a verified record of its condition before packing. This archive protects both you and the integrity of our work.
A $2950 Bed That Costs Less
Than the Alternative
Furniture that lasts isn't expensive. Furniture you replace every four years is.
Solid oak · 25-year lifespan
Total: $2950
MDF · cam locks · 3–5 year life
Total: $5625
Every Hulmara bed is individually crafted to order — and we go further. If our standard collections don't match your exact vision, our artisan workshop can build it to your specifications.
✓ Custom Sizing — Non-standard room? We'll adjust the length, width, or headboard height to fit your space perfectly.
✓ Alternative Wood Finishes — Beyond our four standard stains, choose from a full spectrum of tones — from bleached driftwood to deep espresso.
✓ Fabric & Upholstery — For our upholstered collection, select your own linen, bouclé, or velvet to match your bedroom palette.
✓ Modified Construction — Need an adjusted slat system, specific mattress height, or integrated storage? We'll engineer it.
How it works: Simply reach out with your idea — a sketch, a photo, a description.

We'd Rather You Ask Now
Than wonder later.
I've seen beds that look identical for a fifth of the price.
What you've seen is printed MDF with a photograph of oak laminated onto a hollow-core panel, held together with cam locks designed to last three to five years. A Hulmara bed is solid European white oak — the same timber specification used in heritage restoration — with mortise-and-tenon joinery engineered to last decades. The material cost alone exceeds the retail price of most flat-pack alternatives. These are fundamentally different products that happen to share a silhouette.
Sixty days is too long. I need a bed now.
Your bed doesn't exist yet — and that's the point. We don't hold inventory because every piece is built to your exact specifications after you order. This is how bespoke furniture has always been made: Savile Row suits, custom kitchens, fine cabinetry. The alternative is warehouse stock in limited sizes and finishes, with the compromises that entails. If you're furnishing a primary bedroom, a two-month wait for a twenty-five-year piece is a very good trade.
How do I trust quality on a purchase I can't see in person?
Three safeguards. First, we ship complimentary wood and finish samples to your door — you'll feel the weight and grain before you commit. Second, every completed bed is professionally photographed and filmed in our workshop before packing; you'll see your exact piece, not a stock image. Third, standard collection pieces carry a thirty-day return window. We assume the risk because we know what arrives will exceed your expectations.
Is 'handmade' real, or is that marketing language?
Every Hulmara bed is built in our workshop by the same artisan from timber selection through final finishing. Handmade means one craftsman selects your oak, mills the joints, hand-sands between lacquer coats, and signs off on the completed piece. We photograph and film the process as proof. This isn't a factory line with a handmade label — it's a workshop.
What if the colour doesn't match my room in person?
Our product photography is colour-calibrated to be as accurate as possible, but we always recommend ordering a free finish sample first — it takes five to seven days. For bespoke finishes, we can colour-match to a photo or physical sample you provide. If a standard collection piece doesn't work in your space, you have thirty days to return it.
Why should I choose you over a well-known luxury furniture brand?
Large luxury retailers deliver excellent product within a business model that funds global showroom networks, designer licensing, and retail staff — their margins reflect that overhead. Hulmara delivers the same material grade and construction standard direct from our workshop to your door, without the markup that pays for marble lobbies and high-street leases. The oak is the same. The joinery is the same. The price difference is real estate and retail theatre.
I'm an interior designer. Do you offer trade pricing?
Our Trade Programme offers preferential pricing, dedicated account management, priority production slots, and COM (Customer's Own Material) coordination for upholstered pieces. Many of our clients come through the design trade. Apply at hulmara.com/trade-accounts or reach out directly to discuss your project.
