American White Oak Single Beds
by Stuart Faulkner

The two single beds were designed to sit next to each other, one featuring three large full extension draws for storage, whilst the other has a standard single bed that pulls out on 210kg full extension draw runners for extra smooth action. The bed is further supported in the out position by a pair of 100kg smooth fixed rubber castor's.

The beds disassemble into a number of manageable parts that can be manoeuvred comfortably through the tightest of spaces. The 65mm thick headboards feature a newly imported poplar triple core blockboard veneered with matched quarter sawn American White Oak and solid edging.

The frames have a laminated Hoop Pine Ply core for reduced weight and extra strength and stability and are veneered with book matched hand cut solid veneers. The timber frames house a nickel plated steel frame for maximum rigidity. Both beds feature laminated beech slats and articulated pockets as well as additional lumbar support slats for superior comfort.

The cantilevered side shelves are strong enough to be used as a seat and can be easily removed when the third bed is needed. This project combines good design with the most appropriate materials and technologies to successfully answer a challenging brief.
