    • ]]>     Bed1.jpgThis bed can be assembled with nothing more than a screwdriver. The quickly collapsible, and transportable, queen size bed is the latest in knock-down construction — something for the modern nomad without skimping on design.


    The bed has a 12- inch shelf surrounding its perimeter for holding books, coffee cups and other bedside accouterments. It is constructed from FSC (Forest Stewardship Council) certified sustainable plywood, which is simple to recycle, the Knock-Down Bed also ships flat, reducing the need for excessive packing materials. The price is $1850 from Vivavi. The designer’s home page is Material Furniture via productdose.

    This bed, constructed in Japan, is made in the style of the Edo period, which was known for its simplicity and restrained elegance. It’s constructed out of sustainably-farmed solid mahogany. The bed can support a futon or a traditional style mattress. One benefit of this type of design is that no box springs are needed. The queen size sells for $649. Available from Haiku Designs.
