DWR‘s Mattress and Bedroom Sale ends today…just in case you need a new bed and wouldn’t mind saving a little bit of dough.

Designed by acclaimed Italian designer Tino Novati to have a “light and flying” aesthetic, the Icaro Bed (2001) stands at least four inches taller than most standard platform beds (platform is 12″ tall). The result is a lofty aesthetic and a design that facilitates entering and exiting the bed. The wood Icaro Bed features beautifully grained walnut veneer, seamlessly applied over the entire frame. A small 3″ shelf runs the perimeter of both beds, framing the slightly inset mattress.

King: H 36.6″ W 83.5″ D 88.2″

Queen: H 36.6″ W 67.7″ D 87″

“Eschew”? For real?

“Meld spare line with century-old reclaimed pine planking, fine craftsmanship with more than multiple use function and, voila, the Richardson Reeves makes its Sundance debut. Eschew as we do the bounds of strict traditional or equally restrictive haute contemporary design with a furnishings statement born of both…richly patinaed naturally and fitted with four incredibly ample drawers for use in both dining (wonderbar sideboard) or the bed chamber (exceptional chest). Made in the USA of imported parts.”

71-1/2″W x 22″D x 26-3/4″H.

This is a beautiful platform bed; it’s sure to be a piece you’ll appreciate for years.

“Due to overwhelming demand, Amenity’s custom bed is now available to the general public. It’s conscientiously made by local artisans from solid, reclaimed Douglas Fir and finished only with low VOC, water-based materials.”

Wood is finished with water bases, non-toxic stain. The Muir bed is named after John Muir, one of California’s most beloved naturalists and conservationists.

Similar to the Bloc Media, these chests of drawers show off the beauty of the wood by avoiding any extraneous design features.

Materials: European walnut, stainless steel

I think these reversible pillowcases would be a pretty cute gift for new parents.

“This funny, reversible pillowcase set is the perfect way to help sleep deprived new parents avoid late night misunderstanding about who’s turn it really is. Embroidery on one side reads: On Duty; on the other Off Duty…just don’t forget to turn over the pillow. 250 thread count cotton. Fits standard size pillows. These are identical pillowcases sold as a set of two.”

While I know not everyone would need or want wheels on their bed (or a futon mattress, for that matter), these two platform beds are super simple, and not out of the pricing ballpark.

The only thing this motel nightstand is missing is a copy of the Gideons Bible.

This is actually pretty pricy considering where it comes from, but it’s a pretty great piece. I think it’d be perfect as a little bedside table.

For anyone who doesn’t know about thread count (a measure of the coarseness or fineness of fabric), 320 means these sheets will feel heavenly.

Each Dwell sheet set arrives with one fitted sheet, one flat sheet, and two French-back pillowcases.”

Murphy Beds are great for multi-purpose rooms and space saving. But they’re a little expensive and can be pretty ugly. Over at Moddi Murphy Beds you can buy instructions for how to make your own with parts totaling less than $275. The best part about it is that since it’s DIY, you can select your own outer finish or wood type.

The Elemento Bed’s headboard slopes slightly back for reading, and also comes with a removable slipcover for easy cleaning.

I really like how the design of the legs are an extension of the bed itself and not just slapped on there.

First of all, these pictures make this table look like it would be the perfect side to any modern living or bedroom area, second, take a look at the various uses. Not bad, eh?

“The Tall CU side table by Kristalia is functional as a table, bench, or service top… use next to a sofa, near a bed, or even in the garden or a public place. Made of rigid moulded polyurethane. Suitable for outdoor use. Sturdy and easy to clean. Versatile and practical to use anywhere!”

It’s hard to come by a modern bed that hits under the $1G mark, and this one is surprisingly stylish. If I didn’t know the price, I would guess it to be at least twice as much.

“…our Float Bed elevates your sleeping hours to stylish new heights thanks to a raised platform and sleek, elegant lines. Designed to deliver hours of soporific comfort, the Float Bed accommodates most queen-size mattresses in a versatile wenge finish that never tires of mixing and matching.”

32″/12″ H x 71″ W x 85″ L

I love the simplicity of this bed.

“Bed with frame in steel and wood, staves in beech plywood. Multi-density polyurethane foam padding, turned feet in polished natural aluminum. removable cover in fabrics and leathers of the collection. An additional removable cover in pelle ovo, tela bianca or tela forte is also available.”
