The bed that makes itself is Basque

“Ohea” may be seen as either the height of laziness or a dream come true. Yet for its designer, Ascencio Zubeldia Jáuregui, from Gipuzkoa and aged 56, it is a wish fulfilled. The self-making bed carries the label Made in Villabona. It’s not that the people of Gipuzkoa don’t know how to make a bed, but rather that Zubeldia thought it was a good idea to end the daily chore of struggling with sheets and duvets. "This bed is my hobby after slaving away at my lathe for ten hours every day", he declared.
