Beds
You can’t put a price on a decent night’s sleep. And choosing the right bed for you is always a good place to start. Design Storey’s selection offers something for all types of sleeping space.


- Felix Chaise Corner Sofa Bed Love Your Home
Sofa beds are a whole world of pain. What looks good as a sofa can often make a terrible bed. Many of the most attractive sofa beds are only singles and if it’s a good bed it might be hideous when folded up. Love Your Home generally give good sofa bed. We had a modular one (not from here) that folded out in such a way that one person had to climb over the back (side when it was a bed) to get up in the night. No good for elderly parents. This one allows you to scoot along the side (which is handy storage) which is easier. If your guest room and home office are one and the same then you need a sofa bed.
- Buisseau Oak and Rattan Cane Child's Bed La Redoute
Billed as a kids’ bed this is actually a standard single so don’t worry that you will have to replace it too fast. This should take them from first bed to whenever you redo the room and they want a double - sometime around early teens is the current convention.
- Dallas Single Bed Cuckooland
There’s something really cosy about this bed, which is standard single size. They can add lots of cushions, fairy lights and throws to create a daybed look when they are older and it comes on legs with the option to add a trundle drawer to be filled either with a spare mattress for sleepovers or more toys.
- Castou Sofa Bed with Base La Redoute
A retro but space age bunk bed, this is standard mattress size and will be perfect for smalls who have to share or for singletons who like to have guests. SEE BEDS FOR MORE BEDS OF ALL SIZES
- GFW Platform Metal Double Bed Frame Argos
I have just bought two of these for my teenage sons’ rooms. They were easy to put together, affordable, and the minimal style means they don’t dominate the rooms while still looking modern. There is some storage underneath. Delivered fast and reliably too.
- LOFT Mila M&S
A simple bed that comes in single or king and a choice of blush, teal or grey. The legs will make the room look bigger as you will see the floor underneath - try not to fill it with junk! I know you will but think of the feng shui.
- Buisseau Oak/Cane Bed La Redoute
It has to be said that all those velvet beds can rather dominate a space so if you want something a little less demanding then cane is a good way to go. This has good detailing around the headboard and won’t look like a giant tanker landed in the middle of the room.
- Luna Grey Velvet Beds Graham & Green
I rather like this mix of wood and velvet although I have to say it might be helped by the stripy linen bedding which is the perfect mix of rustic contrast with the luxurious headboard fabric. So often a successful scheme is about the contrast of materials - bring down the luxe with a bit of rustic or amp up the rustic with cashmere and velvet.
- Topeka King Size Ottoman MADE
Another storage bed (look out they are very heavy and quite tough to build but the angled back and curving head will embrace you and is very comfortable for those who like to read in bed. Or sit up and chat. OK shall we just admit it - work. Just make sure you move your bedside table forward so you can still see the clock when lying down.
- How to buy ethical interiors ON THE BLOG...
It can be very hard to know where to go or what questions to ask when you try to shop sustainability and ethically for your home. In this post, I interview the UK’s first certified vegan designer to find out what you need to know.
- Bergen Oak Bed Cox & Cox
This is a good example of bringing the unexpected in. These beds are usually made of metal and belong to the retro hospital/boarding school look but in wood it’s a different thing. Lighter than velvet, less fashionable (by which I mean more classic) than rattan, this is a rather beautiful, yet minimal bed. Bring the contrast by piling on heaps of patterned bedding - try Society of Wanderers.
