While this bed frame is one of the higher priced options from Ikea, it's still loads cheaper than what you'd find from other heavy hitter furniture distributors. It's a great look for a lot less (is that a slogan?).

• Easy to keep clean; removable dry-clean cover.
• Adjustable bed sides allow the use of mattresses of different heights.

Check it out- this duvet is printed to look like cardboard boxes, which might provoke mixed feelings but the intention seems entirely good.

The Home Duvet lets you sleep under a cardboard box so a homeless person doesn't have to! This high quality duvet cover features a photographic print of a cardboard box. This produces an extremely sharp image that stays flexible because the ink is printed directly in the cotton. The image will stay crisp after frequent washing. The cotton has a thread count of 144 threads per square inch, so it's soft to the touch virtually non-iron. The duvet cover is produced in Pakistan and child labour is not used. 30% of the gross profits go to Centrepoint, the UK charity for homeless young people aged 16-25 (charity number 292411). Every night Centrepoint provides support and housing for 800 vulnerable homeless young people

Sometimes simple white bed linens is all a room needs, but in this case the circle embroidery provides just enough detail to ward off any accusations of being boring.

Sanford Burrows' streamlined designs are meticulously embroidered onto their linens, adding texture and warmth to each piece. The base is an Egyptian cotton fabric produced by one of Italy's leading textile companies to ensure the finest quality and craftsmanship. While techniques are traditional, Sanford Burrows designs are decidedly modern. White space and clean lines don't overpower, but become an integral part of your design landscape.

Check it out- the stopper of this carafe can be nested underneath for use as a vase. Smart.

The generous round form of this mouthblown carafe/vase combined with the transparency and sheerness of the glass creates a timeless piece. The colored round crystal ball doubles as a top and a tactile magic ball. Place it on the top of the carafe as a seal or let it playfully peep out from its nest at the bottom of the vase adding a vibrant touch of color. The ball has a cut (grinded)surface, which stops it from rolling.

Available in Black, Amethyst, and Clear

This Planar Dresser and Wardrobe are pretty impressive. I'd say the whole collection is well worth some consideration if you're looking for long term modern storage pieces.

Cascades of planar facets define this line of modern storage furniture. The signature white faces appear to float on the bamboo exterior and push touch hardware makes opening the drawers seamless. The Planar Storage Line includes a tall elegant wardrobe, modern drawers & dressers, and a stylish media console. A dresser with many layers, the Planar faces hide the shallow accessory drawers among the deeper clothing storage. Both elements flow together maintaining a clean facade.

Materials: Amber bamboo with white MDF drawers. Drawer faces are 100% recycled formaldehyde-free MDF and drawer boxes are FSC-certified maple. The paint is a low-VOC waterbourne enamel and finished with a durable, water-based finish.
Made in Brooklyn (USA).

I was just at Ikea and I actually really liked this piece in person. It has a cover which looks like wool (but is actually a synthetic of some sort).

This innovative bed frame shape allows a quick transition between a single size bed, a full size bed or two beds. (Get it? Simple, Double or Doux). It's very cool but it will set you back around $3,500.00 and it needs to be shipped from Switzerland.
