platform beds are the least and the most. high design at it's least, or most?

  • How much money is under your mattress?

    This platform bed, which I like, evokes a question. How much money are you willing to spend to have UNDER your mattress? This is an extravagant design. Big and beautiful solid wood planks. 84% of which are under the mattress. Now I can tell it’s a luxury platform bed. I can see someone spent some [...]

  • That fu**ing chair again….oh yea with a platform bed.

    Just a quick post to point out this damn chair again. Is this the same chair that all stylist share. Oh yea, and a white storage platform bed.

  • The Platform Bed Commitment

    It can be hard to change your style. You can’t just jump from an all 50′s decor to country kitsch overnight. This photo shows you what can happen when you just jump into something head first. You end up with a giant concrete platform bed with a theatre emergency light as a reading lamp. I actually like [...]

  • Southern Yellow Pine Platform Bed

    All kidding aside, I like this room. It is slightly prisonesque, but it’s pretty baller. At first glance, it seems like concrete walls but I think just grey washed planking. What you can see of the platform bed shows me it’s a custom job because no one would make a platform bed out of southern yellow pine [...]

  • The Artist As A Young Platform Bed

    This must be an artist’s room. Otherwise, why have a double noose hanging from the ceiling? And what the hell is that supposed to signify anyway? God, so many questions and no answers. And now I just took another look at the picture and there is a framed portrait of a very happy set of lady parts. [...]

  • Platform bed pillows

    I think the platform bed is the perfect palette (not pallet!)  to express quirkiness. Funky blankets, crazy duvets and pillows that say stupid stuff. Why not? I hate when a house if full of knick-knacks from a decorator. It’s like the spirit of crate and barrel lives there instead of actual people. So here is some funky pillows [...]

  • A platform bed made out of pallets that I actually like!

    If you have been following my vendetta against pallet-based platform beds, and jeez who hasn’t, you might have noticed I hate splinters and the smell of old lettuce. Well I found one that I like. Of course this person had to actually craft something rather than just stealing pallets from behind the grocery store. I [...]

  • The Rise of the Platform Bed

    As usual the Janie come lately’s at the WSJ have some funny ideas about the rise of platform beds. Kinda a funny video about fat mattresses and how vampires are awesome! Wait what happened to coffins?

  • Low platform bed in very bright room

    Love it. The platform bed is low but looks comfortable like it should. The scale of the ceilings might be freaky in person, but looks very airy and fresh in the picture. Definitely needs drapes. I would wake up in a rage and spend the day trying to kill the sun if my room were that [...]

  • Cardboard filing box platform bed

    Ok genius. Genius.
