woodblock platform bed - but more affordable.  

Furniture is one of the most relevant art forms, in that we have to interact with it so often. and sleep should be the most peaceful restful experience one should have in regards to furniture. therefore I find that having a stylish and comfortable bed is important. My problem is that I do not have 1000 dollars or more to spend on a bed like the wooden block bed from West Elm. Still, I would like something similar that is at the same time much more affordable. (more in the range of 200-500) My other problem is that I don't like most of the platforms that are raised of the ground on legs, and unfortunately most are. Ikea used to make one, but it has not been on the site for over a year. anyways, any help would be great. Ohh and I am in toronto, so if anyone locally has one to sell or can make me one, that is even better. I hope the results of this thread will help many in their search for sleeping arrangements, and the impressive bed might even help you get more people in it! thanks a ton in advance.
