The Western Bed Mid Century Modern Style Platform Bed (Available with Storage)

Description

The western bed is an original design that draws on the tradition of mid century modernism and Danish sensibilities. It’s a statement of clean lines, simplicity, and the natural beauty of hardwood. It features a solid walnut headboard canted at a 95 degree angle, a solid walnut perimeter and tapered, solid walnut legs. The brackets that support the headboard are black, powder coated steel. The slats and all support pieces are domestic baltic birch plywood.

The legs on this bed are 10″ tall and the side rails are 2.5″ tall, and the height of the platform is 11.5″ (the mattress is hemmed in by the side rails). The total total footprint for a queen bed is 61.5″ x 83″. For a king it’s 77.5″ x 83″. For a cal king it’s 73.5″ x 87″. The headboard is 13″ tall, with a 10″ gap from the platform to the bottom of the headboard (this gap can be modified). The top of the headboard is approximately 38″ off the ground. Many of these details can be modified for a small customization fee.

The price in this listing is for a queen. A king or cal king adds $100 to the price. The bed ships flat in a cardboard box. The assembly process is very quick and simple- the four rails that compose the basic frame fit into each other with a puzzle-type joint (putting it together is like completing a 4 piece puzzle), then the puzzle joints are reinforced with two bolts in the head rail and a series of 5 screws in each of the head and toe slats. The legs are screwed into place and the headboard attaches with four bolts into the platform and four bolts through the metal support brackets. The entire assembly process should take anywhere from 1 to 2 hours.

I can also add storage to this bed just like my other beds- see the last picture in the listing. The storage drawers will add to the shipping cost however. I could also build it in other wood species- please inquire for details. A storage bed in a queen size would be $2900, with the drawers being built from solid walnut and incorporating dovetail construction. For a king or cal king, it would be $3150 for a storage bed.
