straightforward and sturdy
I was asked to design bedroom furniture for a boy in his early teens that would be durable, provide plenty of storage and appeal to his emerging aesthetic sense enough to make him want to spend time in there – probably the most challenging aspect of the assignment.

full size platform bed with 3 full extension drawers below on each side

raw wood, just prior to finish, with 3 drawers extending

bedside table, cherry; 22″h x 24″w x 24″d with one full extension drawer

cherry window bench with storage, 1 of 3; 24″h x 24″d x 36″L

a student’s desk; maple, 30″d x 72″L x 60″h
