Low-Profile Design

Wide Platform Surround
The platform extends beyond the mattress on both sides. This creates a shelf-like surround — useful for placing a book or phone. No bedside table needed if space is tight.

Low beds can ground a room. The M1 has a strong horizontal presence without being bulky. The wide platform and low profile create a sense of calm. Works well in modern homes where ceilings might be lower and rooms smaller than Victorian-era bedrooms.
The frame is plywood covered in Soho 900 woven fabric. Small dark feet lift it just off the floor. Built to last with proper care. Platform beds tend to stay in style because the shape is minimal enough that it doesn't look dated after a few years.
