Design your Dreams

Customizable mattresses from Vi-Spring fit your decor and enhance your lifestyle


By Lifestyle Staff | September 27, 2010


The bedroom is one of the most important rooms in the house — a place to relax, reflect and replenish. It comes as no surprise, then, that we are so concerned with the decor of these personal retreats. While designers look to perfect every decorative touch from light fixtures to drawer handles, they often overlook what is arguably the key piece of the room: the mattress.

The reason for this is simple: The standard mattress, a white rectangle, can be uninspiring from a designer’s point of view. Today, mattress buyers are presented with a new option. Vi-Spring, a British mattress manufacturer, has spent the past 110 years perfecting their craft: unique mattresses of superior quality that are customizable from leg to headboard to suit your sleeping needs and bedroom decor.  

“Bottom line: We make the bed to meet the users’ needs and imagination, no matter what they can dream up,” says Terence Bachor, director for Vi-Spring North America.

The Vi-Spring process allows clients to customize every aspect of their new mattress. To begin, they eliminated the need to resort to the box spring standard white-on-white with more than 60 different fabrics and colours to choose from. This innovative concept allows the box spring, once an eyesore, to be a positive contributor to the overall look and feel of the bedroom.

This customization extends to all aspects of the bed’s design. Whether searching for additional storage for pillows and duvets, unique, customized legs or a bold designer headboard to make the perfect statement, Vi-Spring rises to the occasion to deliver the beds lucky sleepers had only dreamt of.

The design program is in fact so flexible that clients are welcome to customize their mattresses with their own fabric choices. The size, shape and height of the mattress itself are also made-to-order, no matter the request. “There is even a guy in Chicago wanting a 12-foot-by-12-foot one-piece bed and we can make it,” Bachor shares.
The Vi-Spring mandate covers this customization — and more, with “Perfect Support, Perfect Comfort, Perfect Design, Perfect Detail.” Clients can rest assured that their decorative pieces offer top-of-the-line support and comfort.

Vi-Spring beds all use surgical steel coils in four different firmnesses to provide each user with perfect support. In addition, the mattresses are made with 100% natural fibres that promise incredible comfort without any of the harmful components of other mattress brands. In being made from entirely natural sources, Vi-Spring avoids foam content altogether, and reduces the chemical content in their superior product to a reassuring zero. This shift towards a healthier lifestyle begins, appropriately, with where you begin each morning: your customized, chemical-free bed.

The starting price for a Vi-Spring mattress is an affordable $3,000. In addition, Bachor states, clients receive a lifetime guarantee, and the best sleep they will ever have. The Vi-Spring mattress comes with complete customization, superior support, all-natural materials and a lifetime guarantee.  

We spend an average of eight hours asleep every day, totalling an impressive 2,920 hours a year. This life-changing furniture investment is therefore not to be taken lightly. As with all decisions of this importance, Vi-Spring offers the following advice — sleep on it. •
