Did you know the average person spends up to 26 YEARS of their life, asleep? Neither did we… 26 years is a long time to spend in one place, so its worth investing in a safe space where you can comfortably wind down and recover after a long hard day.
Almost every component of a bed affects your sleep. Whether it be a wobbly bedframe, one that screeches with every movement or even one that travels on castors during the night, its worth spending as much energy as you do in sourcing a good mattress, as you do in a decent, structurally sound bedframe.
We have done some extensive exploring and sourced 4 bed frame designs that are not only supportive and sturdy, but seriously worth dreaming about!
Starting off nice and strong with this beauty!
First and foremost, bed height is important! Low bed frames can assist in making a room feel more spacious than a higher bed. This design builds on this spaciousness in many ways, with its lower set design and horizontal timber grain to elongate the room. Solid timber is a great finish to assist in a capacious bedroom setting, as timber grain can always be utilised manipulate the eye.
Also positioned on a short plinth like base, this bed frame appears to be floating. With added space under the frame, this base again assists in added openness and a lightweight appearance. This is not only a luxe and sophisticated design, but it also offers an added bonus… It is IDEAL for cleaning purposes as the vacuum can get right in and under! If you can’t stand dust gathering in hard-to-reach places, it’s always a good idea to keep the cleanability of a bedframe in mind.
Artistic and sophisticated, this bedframe is delicate, yet very eye catching. Composed of solid turned timber legs, this tasteful design screams luxury. Another example of a low set design, that will aid in spaciousness, whilst the round leg detail assists in enhancing this soothing atmosphere.
Natural lighting is often an element championed in many bedroom blueprints. This artistic design and execution will collaborate effortlessly with natural lighting, as progressive silhouettes will form as the day evolves. A truly refreshing design as this base will never display an identical presence in good natural lighting. No doubt a bed you would never want to leave and always want to return back to each day.
Shadows can really elevate many qualities and characteristics of furniture. The bedroom is a zone where you can really play around with this idea and use it to your advantage. Why not leap into a bedframe design similar to this splendour!
Rustic and charming, this bedframe enhances practicality. An added custom shelf at the foot of the base, provides a place to store books, blankets, and other personal items, whilst also working as a convenient bench to sit on (or to throw all your clothes on when you’re too lazy put them away…).
Championing traditional joinery techniques, this shelving showcases a beautiful dovetail join. With the help of timber grain direction, the eye is subconsciously drawn straight to this detail. A great technique and clear example of how joinery techniques can be used artistically.
The dovetail join is one of our most used joins here in the workshop and with in house designers and craftsman on hand, we can discuss all the options to elevate your design and also include some artistic features.
