Contemporary Floating Platfrom Bed in White Oak by Boyd & Allister

About the Item

This contemporary floating platform bed in White Oak was originally designed for my own bedroom. It is priced and pictured as a queen sized bed in both White Oak and Walnut. It is available in a variety of woods and all sizes as well as being made with a headboard in a separate listing. The entire visible structure of the bed is solid White Oak, the slats are solid Poplar. Both the under supports as well as the front corners of the bed are constructed with bridle joints. These joints are not only structurally exceptionally strong they are also visually pleasing by contrasting the endgrain against the face grain. The joint draws attention to the hand work involved in making the bed. We bring additional attention to the front corners by securing the joint with a pin detail in the contrasting wood of figured Maple (see detail photo). The frame is lifted 8” off of the ground by the ‘legs’ and then the solid poplar slats sit on top of those. This puts the bottom of the mattress approximately 10” off of the ground. The platform for these beds is build as a solid piece with the ‘legs’ disassembling. Please make sure if ordering a king that a platform measuring 80”x84”x2.75” will be able to get to your bedroom. We have built the platform in multiple pieces if needed for a modest up-charge. The finish is a natural oil and wax

  • Contemporary Bed Built in White Oak by Boyd & Allister
    By Boyd & Allister
    Located in Santa Fe, NM
    This bed was originally designed for one of our clients who owns a historic home in Santa Fe and wanted something contemporary but also fitting with his adobe home. We designed this bed with its frame constructed from solid 2” thick walnut to pick up the weight of the beams in the home. This minimal design uses traditional joinery and clean lines, allowing the beauty of the wood to be the defining characteristic. The design detail of the leg meeting the rails is also a showcase of craftsmanship in its clean joinery. Pictured in this listing are a white oak bed frame...
