Japanese simplicity – float above the floor on this simple futon bed ("kumo" is a Japanese word for cloud). Choose a dark wenge stain and no headboard for the definition of minimal, add a headboard if you fear for your pillows!

For real Japanese styling remember to keep the room simple and the colour palette limited. To keep your room uncluttered, use underbed drawers and choose the Kyoto bed which is 5cm higher than the Kumo – the base timbers are larger to create more space for the drawers.

The main photo shows a wenge stained pine Kumo. Detail photos show a sanded pine Kumo with a headboard and a wenge stained Kyoto with underbed drawers. Wenge stained drawers cost £115, phone 0114 2721984 to order.
