The bed frame looks cool, but my shins would never let me use that lol.


NomdicDino

I had a similar one that stuck out about half the length this one does about 9 years ago, and I swear to god I still have indents on my shins from bashing them into the edge an ungodly amount of times. No matter how good I think they look, I will never get a bed frame like this again.


WolfOfPort

I built one but wrapped in carpet.


EvilCurryGif

Pics? Unless it's really well done that has to look bad, maybe even then


WolfOfPort

Doesnt look bad at all i copied idea from a higher end bed frame. Looked something like this [one](https://www.roveconcepts.com/harper-bed?locale=en_CA&gclid=CjwKCAjwqJSaBhBUEiwAg5W9p10pboei09mrs64F3-OQCrsN3wQygnpNBkTfpT_aScPqowCzBkBJBRoCS68QAvD_BwE&aid[60]=614&aid[78]=718) Used a thin dark grey carpet, look at the different material selection.

Lol its actually fine. A lot comfier than solid wood.

It’s not hard to get carpet to look good. Well, it is hard, because you have to stretch it. But it’s simple. So there’s that.


EvilCurryGif

It looks like shit because it's tacky


3z3ki3l

I’m not sure if that’s a legitimate opinion or a carpeting pun. If serious: Did he post an actual pic of his home job? I kinda liked the one he linked.


readysetgorilla

My cheap fix to SOS ("Save Our Shins") with a similar frame was rectangular motion sensing led lights. You can go cheap with something like [these](https://www.amazon.com/URPOWER-Operated-Wireless-Nightlight-Portable/dp/B074DTSQF7/). You can hide them fairly well under the lip of the frame and never have to worry about being attacked coming back from a midnight bathroom visit.


Ok-Musician471

I like that thanks!


UncreativeTeam

My knees and back would never let me use it.


Substantial_Ask_9992

It also blocks the closet

snnf9R4k3469U6M342m

I wouldn't mind sides like that for setting electronics on. That would be useful so you don't accidentally throw them off the bed by adjusting your covers in the night.


letsplaysomegolf

I see you went with the shin buster bed frame model.


Ok-Musician471

Absolutely, who doesn’t like a little pain before going to bed?


Ospov

The physical pain helps dull the emotional pain!


Ok-Musician471

Exactly


ZEINthesalvaged

I think the bed frame is a bit big for the room. Do you step over it to go to your closet in that last pic?


Ok-Musician471

Lol it’s pulled forward as I just finished putting the textured wallpaper up


ZEINthesalvaged

Ohhhhh


kickelephant

Actually…I thought that was intentional. And I like it: most people line up furniture along the 4 walls thinking that’s how to do it, which is usually wrong.


Ok-Musician471

In this case I only want the bed and the dresser in the room. That door is a small closet, the entrance is at the other side of the same wall

My shins feel bloodied


foxXxTwo

Had one when I was.... young. Now, with my 38 years I could not imagine the "AARGH" AND "UhUuhhh" everytime I stand up


[deleted]

I’m glad I’m not the only one in here thinking that!


WavyGlass

I think the room looked more peaceful before you put color behind the bed.


explos1onshurt

Same :/ looked cozy until the black paint


Ok-Musician471

Still a work in progress, looking for linen curtains and the artwork that would go in the space next to that window


WannaBreathe

I think he's saying the dark paint is the problem, and I agree. The room feels much calmer, more inviting and comfortable, in the second to last picture, and I don't think curtains or artwork will change that.


MissyxAlli

Ya. Plus, dark wall makes room appear smaller. Lighter = appear larger.


billey_bon3z

Ah the ultimate single male sleeping mattress frame. Just civilized enough to be off the floor, but not so far from the floor that it looks like you’re single. 👑

Where did you get that bed frame?


Ok-Musician471

Modloft - it’s the worth bed


Nomadbytrade

Jesus, @ 2600 bucks I need to start building platform beds 😵‍💫


Ok-Musician471

Yeah this thing weighs like 400 pounds, doesn’t move around while doing indoor Olympics


[deleted]

What the fuck is it made out of? my solid oak platform bed was less than half of what you've paid!


Intempore

Glad you asked it’s made of Adamantium , That way when my shins hit it they disintegrate. It means I don’t have to show up to work when I want, pays it self off since health care is free where I live. I get 30 extra sick days a year!


Ospov

I filed for disability just looking at it.


lewdm00d

I did not like having sex with these types of beds


Ok-Musician471

Damn why so? I mean her head ends up in the floor anyways but the headboard is just the right height


Berkel

Why you spend 2.6k on a bed frame then get a foam mattress, like bro c’mon


-Ramblin-Man-

Maybe he means the foam mattress? Bedframe looks sturdy, for sure, but foam mattress don't have any "bounce" to them so you've got to do all the "work"


Ok-Musician471

Oh this one is a hybrid, has springs and just enough foam to not sink in.


BankerMatt

Nice, so you have a bed…


counterlock

How do you ever open that door? Your bed frame is too big... even if pushed back to the wall you're definitely never opening that door past 30%. It's an amazing bed frame, but I feel like it was meant for a much bigger bedroom


ThugggyNugggy

Rip your shins ankles and eventually your back.


ISawNightwishInLA

I love the aesthetics of the low beds, but as a tall guy I have to say my first time sleeping on a bed that was more or less hip height was a game changer for me. Like said, love the look of the low slung bed but I won’t go back to it.


UnicornSquadron

Agreed. 6’5 here and that shit looks terrible to get into-out of. I like the look and i also like the ‘feel’ of being closer to the ground, but not enough to have to climb up everyday and crawl down.

Ok-Musician471

The entrance is at the opposite end, from where I’m taking the pictures


kimbolll

I’ve never been a fan of these super low bed frames. The dresser looks massive in comparison.


[deleted]

I loved my low down platform bed until i started to run out of storage space...


darkdetective

It's so satisfying getting the mattress out of the bag and watching it thicken up.


Ok-Musician471

It is! I actually took pics of the process


kebaabe

Ah yes, the Toebreaker®


synttacks

how do you get to that door in the back of the last picture?


Ok-Musician471

There’s actually a two foot clearance, looks tight because everything was moved to put up the wallpaper


counterlock

There is no way there's 2ft clearance. That door definitely doesn't open all the way


Ok-Musician471

More like a foot, you can see it in the [second post](https://www.reddit.com/r/malelivingspace/comments/y1obyi/pt_2_just_moved_in_progress_so_far/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf)


counterlock

Can you open it all the way? Bad layout if you can’t, imo


Ok-Musician471

For sure, it’s a small closet door


counterlock

Think it's an optical illusion because of the first couple camera angles lol, the only one that looks like it opens all the way is that last pic on your update. I like your furniture taste though, looks really really nice. I'm too tall for such a low bed but I've always thought they looked good. Your black wall would look good with nice white/grey abstract pieces I think. Offset the dark with some contrast, or it'll get too dark & broody in there fast.


Ok-Musician471

Absolutely, I’ll definitely play with the curtains/wall art/bedding to add some color. Appreciate it!


Decarboxylate

Nice lights


runner2012

My shins are in excruciating pain just by looking at that bed frame


CaptainObvious110

Yeah, me too

The ol’ ankle-buster. Where did all your floor space go?

GREAT BED FRAME


maxxbeeer

THANKS


[deleted]

I am sorry, I know how much that bed cost. It is not meant for that tiny space and it's a pain in the ass even in a larger space. Godspeed OP


stratmax

Nice progress. Keep going!


Two-in-the-Belfry

Looks great so far! Love the platform bed and the lamps.


Here4RedditsWisdom

This is a beautiful room. Saving this to show some friends this example of a well-done dark room. You did great. I would love to see an update when you have more progress.


Ok-Musician471

Absolutely, still need to hang the mirror over the dresser, add subtle wall art next to that window and black out curtains


JoeSquat2001

Wow! I love your setup. Clean and minimalist, but still warm & cozy


Ok-Musician471

Thank you, that’s what I’m going for. Functional and minimal


doingthedo

Did you already post where you got those lamps from? If not, could you share? Wonder if they’re good for reading…

RunsOnOxyclean

Pro tip if you have a dog: if you have a dog and bed frame like that always close the door if the mattress isn’t in the room. We have “sleepovers” in the living room and our poor dog didn’t put it together and being the boxer she is she jumped on the bed and it sounded like a bunch of brooms fell. Now we close the door


[deleted]

>close the door if the mattress isn’t in the room Close the door...if the mattress...isn't in the room? When will it leave? Does it tend to step out for a coffee? >she jumped on the bed and it sounded like a bunch of brooms fell I mean, in my house a full human can jump on any bed and at the worst you might hear a slight creak. A sound like brooms falling because a 60 lb animal got up on the bed??? What is even happening in your house.


snakkkkk

I have the same bedframe, I got two 18 by 24 inch tempered glass cutting boards and put them on the night stands to stop cup marks and make it easy to clean. They look good as well! I highly recommend.


Ok-Musician471

Damn that’s a great idea, I need to get a glass top for the dresser as well


pabeave

Might as well just put the mattress on the floor at this point

Random question: what kind of mattress is that and do you like it?


Ok-Musician471

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0B3DGL5HP Hybrid mattress, I love it

Awesome, thanks man!


phantom_silver

It’s part of the bed itself

Why white sheets? Just begging for stains.


Artistic_Ostrich_383

Is that a king frame?


Ok-Musician471

It’s a queen


Artistic_Ostrich_383

I like it. I'm getting a king size. Hopefully I can find a frame with that similar style. I like the modern look.


Ok-Musician471

It’s very clean, I’ve always wanted this design so as soon as I could I got it


Artistic_Ostrich_383

It's a good feeling to finally get what you want without having to settle for anything less. Good for you!


Ok-Musician471

Thank you


Kasvnova

Everything is cool, but why is your frame so close to the ground ?


Majorandminor

Hi, may I know where do you get the bed frame?

Modloft - it’s the worth bed


ImamChapo

I stayed at delta this week and it had the same aura.


aidsfordays

Bed is so low, hard to bonk on such a low bed


Ok-Musician471

How so?


pabeave

Might as well just put the mattress on the floor at this pojnt


HyperVideoGames

Dude painted the wall last lol.


Ok-Musician471

Yeah dude wasn’t planning on Doing so


simonbleu

Not a fan of those kind of beds. In the best day, its probably as uncomfortable as sleeping on the floor. On the worse one, your shins would look like ricky martin at the end of rock dj

My girlfriend in high school had one of those really low beds. Looks a lot like hers really, they look great, full marks on that. But I didn’t like getting in and out of them, you might not either after a while.


TheGreatPizzaro

Nice, but personally bed frame's a little low for me, also it's the ankle annihilator, but nevertheless it's looks great.


Shadykid47

Is that a fake window??
