The day has come folks! The final issue, Bed, has arrived. Inside we visit the village that can’t sleep, interview an astronaut and consider the screen’s capacity to cure insomnia. We meet India’s sleep mafia, talk to sheep and wonder how the duvet became a wardrobe staple. Brilliant contributors include Anne Galloway, Formafantasma, Philippa Snow, Pillow Culture, Manijeh Verghese, Miguel Arjona, Cat Rossi and Oli Stratford. With a dreamy design by creative director and designer Michela Zoppi.

Dirty Furniture is thrilled to be part of the 5th Istanbul Design Biennial this year, presenting our first film, The Cooking Show. In our jam-packed video essay we ask why we like watching the making of a meal most of us will never prepare – let alone eat – and take you on a rollercoaster ride through the history of a genre that is at once a staple of television viewing and a hot pot of shifting perspectives and sociocultural values.
