Here are some pieces from his collection.  I loved how he showed the furniture in a artistic render as well because some pieces that I thought were weird really weren’t so bad after all when shown in the render!

These days there are so many options when it comes to selecting a bed such as size, style, design, finish, etc… Though finding a unique bed is a slightly different story-  where innovation can be hampered when tied down to designing around a box (your mattress)!  Well I should say until now…  Wissmann Raumobjekte from Germany has created a Bed Design, Bed Pure, which incorporates the most very basic and un-obstructive, though functional, modular, and unique details to hold your mattress.  The overall composition reads extremely clean, modern, and adds an element of surprise.  Everything is made possible in this design through the utilization of an ‘invisible’ pedestal which provides the overall structural support.  Another unique detail is the headboard that incorporates a ‘flip-down’ night table.  Finishes include: Wood, Slate Effect, and Lacquer.

Definitely one of our favorite beds is the Sloan Bed from Style In Form.  It is a quality product for a great price.  At $860 for a Queen and $1145 for a King, thats almost unheard of for a bed with an upholstered headboard!

We used this bed in one of our residential projects a while ago (shown above) and were ecstatic with the results.  

It comes in either a brown velvet or cream linen.  Contact us for details!
