The general platform bed frame design was adopted from the industrial coffee table.(see  industrial style coffee table  )Chestnut timbers salvaged from an old garage’s roof rafters provided the inspiration for making the headboard a one-of-a-kind product. A white oak timber frame provided the structural rigidity to prevent the frame from flexing and creaking. Steam bent white ash brackets keeps the 12 inches tall legs rigid and wobble-free.
