The japanese style Aiko Bed in solid beech wood is crafted to bring stability and visual calm through its perfectly balanced proportions. Its distinctive feet defined by a precise 45° cut at the top connect seamlessly with the low, open frame that lets the room breathe. “Aiko,” a name linked to care and tranquility in Japan, sets the tone for a piece shaped by essential design, meticulous hand-finishing, and genuine structural strength.

The japanese Aiko Bed is available in double, queen, king and super king sizes. It pairs a minimalist aesthetic with a compact, purposeful structure. Its 9 cm frame reveals the natural presence of solid laminated beech wood and keeps the design visually light.
The signature detail is the 45° cut on each foot, a precise, distinctive feature of the entire line, and the seamless alignment with the low, open frame. This version without tatami includes a rigid solid-beech slatted base, while the accessory range also offers ergonomic curved slats in beech plywood with adjustable lumbar support. Both options are suitable for a futon or traditional spring or memory mattresses.
The Aiko model is part of Arpel’s collection of Japanese beds, created to bring order, visual quiet and long-lasting strength to the room.
The Aiko Bed can also contain Japanese tatami mats. If you prefer this option see the product Aiko Double Bed with Tatami.

In the product configuration options, you can choose untreated beech, for a natural and authentic look, or opt for one of our eco-friendly, water-based finishes, developed to enhance the wood grain while protecting the surface over time. Our palette, inspired by different wood species, allows the piece to integrate naturally and elegantly into a wide range of interiors. Free samples are available on request, so you can see the finishes in person.
Beyond our standard range, you may also select a custom RAL colour by providing the numerical code. In this case, we prepare a dedicated sample and send it to you for approval before proceeding with the final finish of the furniture.
For more details on our finishes, visit the wood finishes page.
You can complete the bed with a wooden headboard, bedside tables, ergonomic curved slats, a futon mattress, and dedicated bed linen, all found in the ‘Accessories’ section.
Here follows more detailed information about accessories that integrate directly with the bed frame, affecting its configuration and function.
Integrated wooden headboard: In the image gallery you will find examples of the wooden headboard for this bed and in the configuration options you can choose whether to add it.
Futon headboard As an alternative to the integrated wooden headboard, you can also choose the futon headboard from the ‘Accessories’ section. It consists of a futon cushion suspended from the wall by a wooden rod, available in the same finishes as the frame. Futon cushions come in a wide range of colours.
The bed comes with rigid solid wood slats, inserted directly into grooves along the inner perimeter of the frame.
Alternatively, you can choose curved slatted bases in the Accessories section. In this case, the internal grooves are replaced by dedicated supports for the base, and the rigid wooden slats are not included anymore in favour of the curved ones.
Roll-out curved slats in beech plywood with rubber inserts
Slatted base with wooden frame, featuring curved slats in beech plywood with rubber inserts
We recommend to pair this bed with structured futons containing latex and/or coconut fibre layers to provide uniform support on slatted bases and maintain comfort over time.
Pure cotton futons are better suited to beds with tatami mats, which offer a continuous and even foundation.
