Every bed on this website started as a conversation. Someone came to us with an idea — sometimes crystal clear, sometimes just a feeling — and we worked with them to turn it into the bed they'd always imagined. This is the page for people who know they want something truly original, and aren't ready to let a catalogue decide what that looks like.
Over the years, those conversations have produced some extraordinary commissions. One customer asked if we could build her favourite design as a four-poster. Another wanted the colours of our funky chaise longue translated into a headboard. Someone else loved our owl bench and said: “Could you do that, but as a bed, with a wolf and an eagle?” And one customer arrived with a clear brief: a bed inspired by her favourite Tim Burton film, carved in solid oak. We said yes to all of them — because that's exactly what we're here for.
If you have an idea — however formed or half-formed — get in touch and we'll have a proper conversation about what's possible. You bring the vision; we bring the tools, the timber, and the workshop experience to make it real.
How It Works
You share your idea with us — whether that's a clear brief, a sketch, a photograph, or just a description of a feeling. We'll suggest timbers, carvings, dimensions, and anything else that helps shape the concept. Once we've agreed on the design, we'll give you a fixed quote and a build timeline. The price shown here is a starting guide; the final cost depends on the size and complexity of your commission.
What's Possible
- Completely bespoke — your design, your timbers, your size
- Carvings, pyrography, natural pigment staining, inlays, four-poster frames, storage drawers — all possible
- Every commission hand-built in the Free Range Designs workshop, Wales
- Free initial conversation — tell us your idea and we'll tell you what's achievable and at what cost
- Typical lead time 4–5 weeks from design sign-off, flexible for specific deadlines
