Modern Walnut Beds
Our collection of modern beds builds on our Simple bed design, with the following changes: the legs are mounted flush with the top of the straight headboard and rails for a clean line, the legs are tapered and the standard wood is walnut. We make two modern beds: the Mid Century Modern Wide Leg and the Goldilocks (formerly also called MidModXL.) Specs and differences are outlined below. We build each bed to order. The designs are easily scaled, so we can adjust the measurements to suit your needs for: underbed clearance, height of your mattress top, and size of headboard. We like to know your mattress thickness (+ box spring, if using) to be sure the sit height is comfortable and headboard placement works well. Click on the pictures below to enlarge.

MID CENTURY MODERN WIDE LEG BED
Closest in evolution to our Simple beds, this bed has wide legs (4"W x 1.5"D) tapered on one inside edge, and can be made with any size headboard. Headboards larger than 20" will be made in two or more pieces (typically 18" over a smaller add-on piece) with a seam between. The standard platform/top of slats on this bed is 14.5" from the floor, which makes it a bit lower bed.
GOLDILOCKS BED
Our most popular bed, with a skinny leg (2.25" x 2.25") tapered on both inside edges, and can be made with any size headboard. Headboards larger than 20" will be made in two or more pieces (typically 18" over a smaller add-on piece) with a seam between. The standard platform/top of slats on this bed is 16.5" from the floor, which makes it a mid-height bed.

Because each bed is made to order, it's very easy for us to make your bed differently. This bed is meant for just a mattress but can be adjusted for use with a box spring. We can mount the platform structure lower or higher to accommodate different thicknesses of mattress. We can raise or lower the whole bed. Some mattresses require closer spacing of slats or even a solid surface, please check and let us know if we need to change something. We can mix woods in various ways, make a larger footboard, add underbed drawers, etc. Please inquire for more photos and pricing on anything else.
