Contemporary Wooden Beds – Handmade in the UK

Every bed in our contemporary beds collection is made from solid hardwood – maple, beech, ash, oak, cherry or walnut – at our Sheffield workshop. Because every bed is made to order, you can choose the timber and size that suits your room, with some special editions and customisations available.

The use of natural timbers means these designs age wonderfully and will never feel dated. The character of the wood becomes part of the piece over time in a way that veneered items never would.

Finding Your Style

With so many designs in the style there’s a lot to explore. Here’s a quick look to help you to get started.

For a Japandi or minimalist look, the Osaka, Nara and Kyoto are among our most popular bed frames. With their low profiles and clean lines the Kyoto and Nara are perfect for Japanese style decor. The Osaka, with its gentle curves is the perfect mix of Japandi and Mid-century style.

If that mid-century style is what you are looking for, the Camden, Carnaby, Pimlico, Highbury, Chiswick and Hoxton are worth a look. Each feature delightfully curved legs and perfectly refined proportions.

The Bloomsbury pairs those same legs with an upholstered frame for a softer, perhaps more colourful, option. Like our other upholstered beds, the Bloomsbury is available in a range of fabrics and colours. We can also work with material supplied by the customer. Please get in touch to learn more, or to order some samples of the fabrics we offer as standard.

For more upholstered frames, take a look at the Carlisle, Shetland, Arran, Highland and Iona.

For something with more presence, the Leith frame is made of deep, slender sections of solid timber for a refined, yet substantial look, and the Malabar offers chunky legs with clean, straight lines.

If you’ve got a larger bedroom, or want to make a real statement, the Harrow and Canterbury four posters are a modern take on a very traditional bed frame.

Our platform beds – The Oregon and Kulu – sit low to the ground with a strong horizontal emphasis. These are well suited to rooms with large open spaces such as lofts or conversions.

Special editions

Several of our contemporary bed designs are available in special editions. This includes different finishes such as smoked walnut or ash, English oak and Scottish Elm, or options like the Bold Chevron Hoxton, which allows you to choose a contrasting timber for a section of your headboard.

Multiple Designs to Choose From – with so many designs there really is something for everyone.

Solid Hardwood Throughout – Our bed frames are made from solid timber, with no veneer or engineered wood.

Made to Order in Sheffield – All of our contemporary beds are made from scratch by a member of our skilled woodworking team.

Your Choice of Timber and Size – We work with all UK sizes as standard, with EU, US and other international or custom sizes available upon request.

Customisations Available – It’s not just bed sizes we can customise. As our beds are handcrafted, we can often work with custom dimensions – such as making your chosen frame taller or shorter, or combining some of the features of our beds – there are limits to this, so please get in touch if you have something in mind.

12-Year Structural Guarantee – Because we stand by the quality of our work, we’re able to offer a superior warranty. You can see the warranty terms here.
