Oak platform storage bed

A low queen platform bed in oiled white oak, with three deep drawers tucked under the foot behind a shadow-line lip and a floating black kick, and a fluted oak headboard screwed to the wall behind it. Calm and Japanese-leaning, with a whole chest of drawers hiding in plain sight.

More bedroom designs

• Walnut jewellery box with a lift-out tray A walnut jewellery box with a hard maple tray that lifts out or slides back on maple runners, so rings, studs and the necklaces underneath all live in one 320mm footprint instead of three dishes. Rabbeted corners, a felt-lined floor split into a necklace bay and a bracelet bay, and brass quadrant hinges that hold the lid open on their own.
• Cherry tall dresser A tall chest of drawers in solid cherry, oiled so it deepens to a warm red-brown over the years: graduated drawers from two deep ones at the bottom to a pair of small ones at the top, on short square legs, with slim brass bar pulls and an overhanging top. Two anti-tip brackets hold it to the wall.
• Aubergine low dresser A long, low nine-drawer dresser painted deep aubergine, with brushed brass edge pulls tucked along the top of every drawer, standing on a recessed white oak sled base under a thick oiled oak top. Wide enough to share, low enough to hang a big mirror or a painting over.
