Focal Point

As you walk into any bedroom, it is quite obvious that there is one dominant focal point in the room – the bed.  Quite often, even the most beautifully designed bedroom can be absolutely ruined by an ugly, old and cumbersome bed.  By replacing your current bed with an aesthetically pleasing Japanese inspired bed, you will soon realise that having a wonderful bed is the missing piece in your bedroom renovation puzzle.

Creates Space

The Japanese are notoriously brilliant at manipulating small rooms by transforming them into a visually spacious area.  This ingenuity has been carried through into the western style Japanese beds we know and love.  The low bases and the clean lines allow the beds to use the minimal amount of space in your room, while still retaining its aesthetics and functionality.

Stunning Atmosphere

Once you have a Japanese style bed in your room, you will instantly notice how it completely changes the atmosphere of your most treasured living space.  With the addition of Japanese inspired furniture, it is possible to create a room that you will barely even recognise.

In today’s blog post, we have explained some of the reasons why our customers in Brisbane are choosing to use an Authentic Futons Japanese inspired bed to transform their room.  If you would like to find out any more about our wide range of beds, please don’t hesitate to give us a call today on (07) 3391 2399.

The History

Futons have a strong history, which can be dated back hundreds of years to the heartlands of Japan.  Traditonally, futons were comprised of a storable mattress called a shikibuton and a blanket called a kakebuton.  These would be made up every night and stored away every day, to allow for maximum use of space in the notoriously dense Japan.  Over the years the Japanese futon was adapted into the western futon, shaped into the form of the couch which we know and love today.

The Western Futon Bed

Western Futon Beds generally contain 2 elements – the frame and the futon (the mattress).  Due to the popular space saving design, futon beds have been subjected to having many cheap and inferior knockoffs flooding the market.  At Authentic Futons, we pride ourselves in respecting the origins of the Futons, and only use the finest quality materials in everything we design.  Our products are handmade, crafted from a variety of types of beautiful wood.  Even the mattress itself is a genuine throwback to the natural Japanese style futon, made from 100% cotton.

Today’s article has explored the origins of the Futon, and showcased the current high quality Futon Beds Brisbane that are available from Authentic Futons.  If you would like to enquire further about anything futon related, simply give Dan at Authentic Futons a call on (07) 3391 2399 today!

Sofa Beds are a great addition to any home in Australia.  Their compact nature and functionality have proven to be successful over the years. While there have been many cheap knockoffs created that have tarnished the image of the Sofa Bed, the overall shape and design remains the same.  They are created to be dual purpose, serving as primarily as a chair before transforming into a bed when needed.

A good Sofa Bed designer will always take a few things into account when creating your sofa bed.  They will initially help you to decide on which material should be used to create the Sofa Bed.  After all, this will be a prominent and stylish piece of furniture so you should have it designed to your tastes and requirements.  Secondly, the designer will help you to decide what size you would like your sofa Bed to be. While there are some standard guidelines of sizes to create either armless 2 or 3 seaters, you could alternatively have a custom size created to fit your home.  Finally, the designer will help you pick the futon mattress to suit your bed.  Futon Matresses are often used due to their quality materials, stylish appearance and noticeable comfort levels.

The next time your family and friends come around for dinner, be prepared by having a stylish Sofa Bed in your home.  If you are looking for a custom made and high quality Sofa Beds Brisbane at an affordable price, then simply contact Authentic Futons on 07 3391 2399.  It will make a stunning addition to your home, and your friends and family will thank you as well.
