Well, it's hardly a day after Christmas, and I noticed that West Elm is already advertising for their spring line. Didn't winter just start? Oh well, some of their new stuff looks nice. This Low Platform Bed for example, seems to be a fairly good value. Priced between $499 and $649 this hardwood platform bed just screams modern with a japanese style. I personally love the simplistic modern furniture that shares its roots with much of the minimalistic asian design. This bed would be a great addition to anyone looking for a good clean look, although with it being as low as it is, I think that carpeted rooms are right out of the question. The bedside table shown in the picture is a nice match to the set, and sells for $129 each or $229 for a set of two.
