Bed frame

Baltic birch plywood with exposed end grain. The rails slot into the posts with no bolts, brackets or hardware, so it goes together in minutes and stays tight.

Built in layers.
Finished to the half millimeter.

Precise slotted joints hold the whole frame together, with no bolts, brackets or hardware.

Selecting high-end Baltic birch plywood and exposing the end grain came from a knowledge of materials and a keen eye for design. Baltic birch is extremely stable thanks to its layered construction, and strong in both compression and tension.

Keeping tolerances within half a millimeter results in a frame that is strong but easy to assemble.

Rounded corners that won’t catch, crafted and stained by hand with a 0% VOC Rubio Monocoat stain.

Why Rubio Monocoat.

Every piece is finished with Rubio Monocoat Oil Plus 2C, a hardwax oil that colors and protects the wood in a single coat.

Five colors are included at no extra cost. Any other Rubio color is $20 extra, which covers the can and a sample board on your actual plywood.

  • Feels like wood

    It bonds with the wood fibers instead of sitting on top as a plastic film, so the grain and end-grain edges stay matte and natural to the touch.

  • One coat, 0% VOC

    Color and protection go on together, with no solvents or harsh fumes in your bedroom.

  • Easy to repair

    Scratches and worn spots can be touched up with a little oil in just that spot, without refinishing the whole piece.
