Oak Platform Bed

The clients for this bedroom suite really liked the styling found at many of the contemporary galleries in and around the Washington area at the time. What they didn't like was how "cheap" some of the furniture looked with it's mismatched combination of solids and veneers.

The solution , naturally was build all exposed surfaces from solid wood. In this piece the only plywood is under the mattress and in the bottoms of the large drawers on either side. The drawers, incidently, mount on casters and can be pulled out completely from beneath the bed.

 

I'm finished here.
