Culver City, California
Denizen Design Gallery welcomes
Savvy Rest – An organic mattress that is
both good for your health, and the health of the
planet.
Denizen Design Gallery, a furniture gallery showroom
located in the Culver City Arts District of Los
Angeles, specializes in representation of independent
furniture, lighting and object designers who create
custom and semi-custom designs. The inclusion
of the Savvy Rest organic mattress is a perfect
complement to Denizen's offering of wonderfully
designed furniture items.
Savvy Rest was developed by veteran yoga instructor,
Michael Penny, who was initially motivated to
design a mattress with highest quality sleep.
It just so happens, Savvy Rest is non-toxic, sustainable,
and promotes good health for the planet as well.
"Once I learned about
the toxic chemicals and allergens that wind up
in mattresses and futons, it became my life's
work to create a mattress that is both healthy
and comfortable." owner Michael Penny says,
"Buying a mattress is not like buying a toaster
that you use only 5 minutes a day. We spend 1/3rd
of our lives in bed, and it should be a bed that
promotes great sleep and good health."
For more information on Michael Penny,
please go to:
savvyrest.com/about/who-we-are/index.php
Each Savvy Rest mattress is
designed and produced individually, based on desired
levels of firmness. Layers of Soft, Medium and
Firm natural Dunlop or Talalay Latex are arranged
in sequence, to create a mattress designed for
individual sleep comfort. Couples requiring different
levels of firmness, may customize a Queen or a
King to suit each partner.
Megan Griffith, owner of Denizen Design Gallery,
adds her enthusiasm, "I knew right away that
Savvy Rest would be a great mattress to represent.
Savvy Rest is timely in so many ways. The
mattresses are 98% organic and offer "memory
foam" comfort with out space-age chemicals.
Also, Natural Latex mattresses have an expected
lifespan of 30 years, adding more value."
Griffith continues, "Savvy Rest is a great
answer for interior designers with clients who
are chemically sensitive or have allergies. The
100% organic wool mattress casing is removable
for dry cleaning and naturally repels dust-mites,
mold and mildew; allergens that are clearly a
concern for so many affected."
Savvy Rest is also a company that is concerned
with suppliers they do business with. All of the
materials that are purchased are done so with
companies and people who support the principles
of fair trade. Everyone receives a living wage.
Working conditions are healthy and without child
labor.
The Savvy Rest organic mattress is on view for
demonstration at Denizen Design Gallery. Denizen
is located at 8600 Venice Boulevard, in the Culver
City Arts District of Los Angeles. Gallery
hours are Tuesday through Saturday, 11-6pm, Sunday
12-5pm and Monday by appointment.
