So this is my furniture design 'blog' if you want to call it that... it will mostly be photos with a little text about my woodworking designs.
I am going to begin with a bedroom suite I am working on... the design has been 'set'... I just need to build it now! You may also notice that the design for the bed in the first 3 pictures is a king size. The bedroom suite picture at bottom is queen size. I think we will be staying with a queen size rather than the king. The bed morphed a little too but not until i'd come up with the design for the nightstands.
So I began with the bed.Here it is in Maple and Cherry:
Bubinga and Wenge:
Cherry and Wenge
I think we have decided on cherry and maple... not maple and cherry... so the legs and horizontal sides will be lightly figured maple... the head and foot-boards will be figured cherry. There has also been some evolution.
After the bed I looked at the night-stands... this is what I came up with. You can see from the 'bedroom suite' jpg that the bed evolved a little too.
