bed - Does anyone know where i can get this same exact bed. Checked the wing bed from bernhardt cooper and R&B and not quite the same. Any other suggestions? »
In the bedroom: The room does not need to have a bearskin rug and antlers everywhere to get the woodsy look. Just open up the view outside and complement it with warm neutral hues and wood accents.
This house by John Maniscalco — featured abundantly in my ideabook on framing views — places large windows above the bedroom's large openings that almost extend to the floor. This clerestory combines with the horizontal window above the bed to maintain views and privacy when the curtains are pulled shut.
A view of the woods. Waking up to dappled sunlight is definitely something I could get used to. A bedroom surrounded by trees would make for a delightful retreat on a hot summer day. The only downside to this is that you may find yourself lounging around more frequently than you care to admit.
High ceilings with two levels of windows maximize light. This dramatic space is warmed by the wooden wall. I particularly like the use of the clerestory picture window over the bed, which creates a framed picture of nature.
Natural light penetrates only so far through each window, so consider installing multiple points of light. You can also arrange your furniture so that the most-used pieces sit where there's the most light.
Balance your bedroom for a better relationship. Apply the same principle of "commanding position" to your bedroom by placing it so that you have a good view of the door from your bed. Placing the bed directly across from the door is considered unlucky, though, so try to keep it off-center. If you are in a relationship, it is also important to have bedside tables and lamps of equal sizes, as this suggests equality in the relationship.

another way to incorporate lots of windows... don't like the two different types of wood... also don't like the thin planks... definitely prefer the wider planks of wood
