The Modern Collection

Mid-Century design.
Built to outlast the century.

Clean lines. Tapered legs. Solid Ohio hardwood. Our Modern Collection pairs the aesthetic of 1950s Danish furniture with the joinery that makes it last generations — handmade in Columbus.

"Most furniture is designed to be replaced. Ours is built so that it never needs to be."

Design Philosophy

Function over form. Always.

Mid-Century Modern wasn't a style — it was a rejection of ornament in favor of honesty. Let the wood show. Let the joinery show. Let the leg be a leg.

Our Modern Collection follows the same rule. Clean lines. Tapered legs. Italian touch-to-open drawers. No decorative pulls to catch your hip, no crown moulding to collect dust. Every detail earns its place by being useful first.

Designed by Tarik Yousef, a former Honda design engineer whose influences run deep in Danish and Scandinavian modernism.

The Platform Bed, In Detail

What makes our beds different.

Mortise & tenon joinery

The strongest wood-to-wood joint there is. Cut precisely, glued, and reinforced with stainless steel dowels. No cam locks, no pocket screws.

Bolt-in slats

Every slat is bolted through the rail. No squeaks, no creaks, no shifting in the middle of the night — ever.

True heirloom construction

The same joinery Shakers used 200 years ago, built with the precision of modern machining. Designed to be passed down, not replaced.

Tool-free assembly

Ships in four pieces that bolt together in about 20 minutes. No hex key, no instruction-manual frustration, no wobble.

The Details Matter

Three things we refuse to compromise on.

01

Solid hardwood only

Every board is Ohio-native, kiln-dried at the sawmill, and hand-selected in our shop. No plywood, no veneer, no particleboard — not even on drawer bottoms or carcase backs.

02

Modern & traditional craft

Precision CNC for the cuts that need to be exact. Hand tools for the surfaces your hands will touch. The combination is why our fit-and-finish is different.

03

Engineered to last

Tarik's background as a Honda design engineer shows up in every piece — tolerances, stress analysis, and fasteners specified for the century, not the warranty.

The Finish

Zero-VOC. Food-grade. Made for bedrooms.

Every piece is finished in our proprietary oil-and-wax blend. No solvents, no polyurethane film, nothing that off-gasses into the room where your kids sleep.

You can touch it, sleep next to it, and eat off it the day it's delivered.
