Caravan<br />
A child’s fantasy world is inexhaustible. This<br />
time Mathy by Bols is playing with the dream<br />
vision of a travelling circus: travelling, living and<br />
sleeping in a caravan.<br />

MATHY BY BOLS – LIT ROULETTE / DESIGN: FRANÇOIS LAMAZEROLLES<br />
The circus caravan bed is designed to sleep<br />
two, and measures 120 x 190 cm. There is<br />
the option to shut off the sides and ends with<br />
a loose sliding panel. This panel also features<br />
the characteristic caravan windows. A scalloped<br />
edge beneath the roof creates the illusion<br />
of curtains. The 2 basalt grey drawers, hidden<br />
behind the wheels, are a nod to the metal<br />
trunks and chests that would have been carried<br />
around. The circus caravan can be painted in a<br />
bi-colour finish: the palette features 28 colours,<br />
including the contemporary concrete grey.<br />
Over time, the circus caravan can be dismantled<br />
piece by piece: from the roof and walls, right<br />
down to the cartwheels. And as these pieces<br />
go, the children’s bedroom disappears and the<br />
caravan becomes a serious teenager’s bed.
