The power of sleep is universal, it is at the core of our being and one of the few absolute necessities of life. That is why we believe in the power of honoring that space with a solid framework. We have worked tirelessly designing and building several different bed frames, tweaking and perfecting, each time trying to come closer to a design we are proud of. Our guidelines have been the following: A frame that is built solid but lightweight enough to move if needed, sturdy when assembled yet easy to disassemble by hand without tools, that supports the body evenly yet uses the least amount of parts possible, that is made with responsibly sourced materials and no harmful chemical finishes, and a design that's made with sacred proportional geometry so that the frame will withstand trends of the time and go beyond to impart a timelessness that can be enjoyed for generations to come. This is the newest version of the Gridlok design, with fewer parts. Similar to how Einstein considered mathematical equations to be most beautiful when they were reduced to their most minimal of elements, we consider the least amount of parts to be the most beautiful design. -- Handmade by skilled craftswomen using a combination of hand and power tools, each bed comes as a kit of 19 pieces: 4 columns / 4 beams / 1 center crossbar/ 11 slats The thick, solid beams of wood keep your mattress flat and even for the ultimate ergonomic sleeping experience. Many beds are difficult to assemble and made of cheap fiberboards that crumble and weaken over time. Often, these beds can only be put together once or twice before the connections get loose and they start to wobble--and eventually need to be thrown away. The Hudson bed offers an alternative. It is very easy to assemble and disassemble, and comes together (or apart) in minutes. In an economy of disposables, we design pieces that withstand the test of time. We hope this is the last bed frame you ever have to buy! **If ordering please write us a message and let us know if you want the shorter 12.5" legs or the taller 17.5" legs.
