Choosing Your Oak Bed
Pine Oak have a large selection of oak beds to choose from, but how do you know what is right for your room? Here is what to consider before you begin your search:
Size: Always measure your bedroom and assess what size your bed should be. It may sound simple, but you'll find that the size of your bed will affect the overall ambience of your bedroom, so avoid overcrowding or creating too much extra space. Our oak beds come in single, double, king size and super king sizes, so there are plenty to choose from in order to make the right choice.
Colour: The beauty of oak is that every piece of wood is completely unique - this includes the colour. Our oak bed range includes everything from fresh and light oak to richer tones that exude warmth. So, what do you think will suit your room best? Think about the overall design concept of your room and choose your colour accordingly.
Design: An oak bed can either act as a dramatic centrepiece or a subtle addition: it all depends on design. At Pine Oak, our collection of oak beds includes everything from beds with sleek, modern shapes to products with more traditional features. Paying attention to detail will help you choose a design that will enhance the style of your bedroom.

Once you've chosen your oak bed, it's time to add your personal touch. Think of your bed as a blank canvas for you to project your own style onto and have fun with accessories and colour. For some inspiration, take a look some of our featured bedroom styles:
The Vintage Bedroom
Which oak bed? If you want to achieve this style, Pine Oak recommend choosing an oak bed that offers intricate design features or a unique shape, such as a sleigh or four poster bed design. Beds in rich colours with interesting grains will also set off this quirky, vintage style.
Accessories: Experiment with an eclectic mix of accessories by venturing to charity shops and markets for your purchases. Look out for retro photographs, lamps and rugs that will add to this gorgeous style. You never know what you might find!
The Contemporary Bedroom
Which oak bed? Choose a bed in lighter shades of oak; this will create a fresh modern look that you can then enhance with your style. Strong shapes are the key to achieving a contemporary style, so try to find simple and striking designs.
Accessories: Go minimal and avoid too many accessories. A few classic additions will be more effective than overcomplicating your decor. A picture or lamp in a bold colour may be all you need to give your room a boost.
The Statement Bedroom
Which oak bed? A statement bedroom really does give you the freedom to experiment with the design of your bed. Any oak bed will work for this look - it's all about how you choose to style it. For a more eclectic style, mix in furniture made from other materials, such as pine and beech to add extra colour and texture.
Styling Tip: Make a statement and enhance your oak bed by using quirky wallpaper or bright paint to create a feature wall. You may want to cover this in retro photographs or interesting prints you've found to create a truly unique look.
