  • Art of Sleeping, Art of Living
    Art of sleeping, art of living Imagine a place of comfort, peace and poetry. A haven of elegance and sophistication, a sanctuary where the things that make life precious can blossom and bloom. This is the world of Vispring. A night in one of our beds is one step on a journey, the catalyst for a wealth of enchanting possibilities. The day that follows is full of promise, rich in emotion, alive with the energy that makes dreams come true. When sleep is sublime, its benefits spread to fill each waking moment. Day and night become one, twin aspects of a single harmonious existence. This truth inspires everything we do. Vispring is much more than the ultimate bed. It is a way of revealing the very best of yourself. Vispring - since 1901 The story begins with one man’s gift to the woman he loved. At the turn of the 20th century, an English engineer named James Marshall decided to offer his wife the most precious gift of all - a perfect night’s sleep. Marshall imagined a mattress that respected tradition while embracing the future. Handcrafted in natural materials, it contained individually pocketed springs for the ultimate in comfort. His token of love endures to this day, changing the way we sleep forever. Marshall’s Vispring bed became an icon. For well over one hundred years, it has graced the staterooms of ocean liners, the suites of elegant hotels and the bedrooms of the finest homes, establishing itself as the reference for people of taste. A perfect night’s sleep is still the most precious gift of all.
