My Grandma's "Horizontal Method" Completely Changed the Way I Make My Bed
"Humble brag incoming, but one of my favorite parts of my job is that I get to preview products and brand look books before they're available to the public. It's fun to get a first look at launches, and sometimes those sneak peeks happen in fabulous settings, like the recent Boll & Branch holiday preview at The Ritz-Carlton New York, NoMad."
"While I'm familiar with the one-and-done convenience of a long lumbar accent pillow, this specific configuration instantly transported me back to my nana's house. There, she used to make her beds spartanly - but also quietly stylishly - with just standard-size sleeping pillows laid horizontally on the bed, covered with a chenille bedspread and tucked so you could see the pillows' forms. It was kind of like the monastic-like bed making trend that's been popular the last year or so, only cozier and cuter."
Boll & Branch presented a hotel-suite preview showcasing a simplified, horizontal pillow-stacking approach. The bed featured no more than five pillows: two sleeping pillows, two matching duvet pillowcases, and a single lumbar cushion for decoration. The horizontal arrangement replaces multiple vertically stacked decorative layers with a flatter, cozier presentation. The configuration evoked a nostalgic, spartan style seen at a nana's house, with standard-size pillows laid horizontally beneath a chenille bedspread and tucked to reveal the pillows' forms. The look offers a softer, approachable variant of recent monastic-like bed-making trends.
