  • Another Screw Mother Nature Platform Bed

    Big. Wood. Mmmm. Good.

  • The Walnut Platform Bed That Says Screw Nature!

    I love this baby. The wood is top notch. And to be fair many of these trees are harvested as land is cleared for other purposes/wastes, so it’s not really the platform beds fault. I think it’s Claro walnut if I am not mistaken. Claro walnuts are some seriously big trees. See here. But they [...]

  • Who makes platform beds?

    That last post regarding “green” and Longevity Life™ labels (I made that up, but more on that later…) got me to thinking, where do you dummies think furniture is made? By a little guy with a beard in his garage in Ohio? Let me ask you this, where is your iphone made? That’s right, CHINA. [...]

  • This Platform Bed Green Enough?

    My goodness. The problem is using trees for useless pieces of furniture is not a green practice by nature. Planting grass on it just means the wood will rot faster making you buy ANOTHER one. That is the real issue. Responsible consuming. Everyone needs a certain amount of crap. Problem is that generally people have [...]

  • Platform Bed… Get In My Belly!

    I shouldn’t pick on students. But I am going to. This entire building, including the platform bed was built by some students some where. I had the link but lost it, it was the “fab house” or something equally unfab. I wish I han’d lost the link because you could see what happens when you [...]

    Did you ever see the boy in the bubble with John Travolta? He just got out, and he got the girl. Now I admit I am a cynic. I do not want to offend people who have a genuine physical ailment. Just people who think they have a genuine physical ailment. Stop it. Just stop. [...]

  • Platform Bed Of Reclaimed Wood

    These fellows make a lot of platform beds from reclaimed wood. Is this good? Well if the woods been cut already, I would guess it is better than cutting down new trees especially since these are from the Brazilian rainforest. The only question is, if these are reclaimed from old buildings, houses etc. what are [...]

  • Platform Beds- Let’s Get Real IKEA.

    Where are platform beds made? Where is anything made these days? Now we have a set of opposing values that are causing us most of our current problems. We want everything free yet want it to also make us feel like we are decent human beings. (well, most of us.) So today on the platform [...]

  • Wood Platform Bed- Serious Wood.

    Over at Design Sponge they have this article about nina something er other who designed this house or the interiors or something. I can’t read the whole thing (you can click on the picture if you like to read). But the wood platform bed in this room has more wood than your average house. I [...]
