Transform your bedroom into a sanctuary of comfort and style with our curated collection of 53 luxury beds from Essentials For Living. This California-based furniture brand combines over four decades of design expertise with modern performance materials, creating bedroom furniture that delivers both timeless elegance and practical durability for everyday living.
Essentials For Living emerged from the merger of Star International Furniture, established in 1977, and Orient Express Furniture, founded in 2002. This union brought together contemporary design sensibilities with transitional styling expertise, resulting in bedroom collections that suit diverse aesthetic preferences while maintaining uncompromising quality standards.
Our bedroom selection features the brand's acclaimed Stitch and Hand collection, showcasing upholstered beds crafted with LiveSmart performance fabrics by Culp. These beds represent the intersection of sophisticated design and family-friendly practicality, offering stain resistance and moisture repellency without sacrificing the soft, luxurious feel that makes a bedroom truly inviting.
Every bed in this collection features LiveSmart fabric technology, an innovation that revolutionizes bedroom furniture. Unlike traditional upholstery that absorbs spills and stains, LiveSmart fabrics cause liquids to bead on the surface, allowing easy cleanup with a simple wipe. This technology contains no harmful chemicals, making these beds safe for children, pets, and everyone in your household while maintaining a breathable, comfortable surface.
Supporting each upholstered headboard and footboard, solid oak frames provide the structural integrity required for years of nightly use. Finishes include Natural Gray Oak for contemporary spaces and Matte Brown Oak for warmer, traditional aesthetics. The removable metal frame European slat system eliminates the need for box springs while ensuring proper mattress support and ventilation.
The Stewart bed offers clean lines with a straight headboard and footboard design complemented by subtle edge piping details. Available in Queen, King, and California King sizes, Stewart beds feature solid oak legs and frames in Natural Gray Oak finish. Upholstery options include LiveSmart Peyton-Pearl for crisp, neutral elegance, LiveSmart Stoneridge Amber for warm earth tones, and Bisque for soft, sophisticated appeal. The Stewart's understated profile makes it versatile enough for minimalist modern bedrooms or layered transitional spaces.
Warren beds present a more substantial silhouette with generous proportions that anchor larger master bedrooms. The collection showcases LiveSmart Boucle Snow, a textured white fabric that adds visual interest and tactile appeal, alongside LiveSmart Gellar-Jute for those preferring natural, earthy tones. The Warren's broad headboard creates an impressive focal point while the Natural Gray Oak trim adds refined contrast. Available in Queen, Standard King, and California King configurations.
For bedrooms demanding statement-making presence, the Tailor collection delivers sophisticated craftsmanship. The standard Tailor bed features straight headboard and footboard designs with solid wood trimming and edge piping details. The Tailor Shelter variant adds winged headboard and footboard elements that create an embracing, cocoon-like aesthetic. Both styles showcase Matte Brown Oak or Natural Gray Oak trim with LiveSmart Peyton-Pearl upholstery. The Tailor represents transitional design at its finest, bridging contemporary and traditional sensibilities.
The Chandler bed introduces velvet upholstery for those seeking rich texture and depth. Caramel Velvet provides warm, inviting tones that complement wood furniture and earth-toned decor. The Natural Gray Oak frame contrasts beautifully against the plush velvet surface. Available in Queen, King, and California King sizes, Chandler beds suit bedrooms where luxury and comfort take priority.
Balboa beds feature LiveSmart Peyton-Pearl performance fabric with Natural Gray Oak frames, offering the collection's signature combination of durability and elegance. The clean-lined design works equally well in coastal-inspired bedrooms, contemporary lofts, or classic master suites. Queen and California King sizes accommodate various room configurations.
The Emmett collection presents refined simplicity with LiveSmart Peyton-Pearl and Ivanhoe Toast fabric options. The Natural Gray Oak frame provides structural support while maintaining visual lightness. Emmett beds suit those who appreciate understated elegance without unnecessary ornamentation.
Highland beds showcase solid Natural Oak construction for those preferring wood-forward aesthetics. The substantial frame creates bedroom presence while maintaining clean, architectural lines. Queen and King sizes provide options for various room dimensions.
Beyond traditional beds, the Keaton Daybed offers versatile seating and sleeping functionality. Available in Whiskey Brown Top Grain Leather for executive home offices or guest rooms, and Bisque fabric with Natural Gray Oak for brighter spaces, the Keaton transforms guest bedrooms, home offices, or living areas into multi-functional spaces.
LiveSmart fabrics represent a breakthrough in furniture upholstery, produced exclusively with low-denier performance yarns encapsulated with stain and moisture repellent finish. When spills occur, liquids bead on the fabric surface rather than penetrating into cushions and padding. This technology allows for easy cleanup using just a damp cloth or paper towel, keeping your bed looking pristine for years.
Unlike chemical-based fabric treatments that can off-gas or cause sensitivities, LiveSmart technology is inherently safe with no harmful chemicals. The fabric remains completely breathable despite its protective properties, ensuring comfortable sleep without the synthetic feel common to coated fabrics. The 98% polyester, 2% nylon composition provides durability while maintaining soft hand-feel.
Peyton-Pearl offers crisp, neutral white tones that brighten bedrooms and coordinate with virtually any color palette. This versatile option suits modern minimalist spaces as effectively as traditional layered bedrooms. Boucle Snow introduces textured visual interest with its characteristic looped yarn construction, adding dimension without bold color. Gellar-Jute provides warm, natural tones reminiscent of linen and natural fibers for earth-toned palettes. Stoneridge Amber delivers rich warmth for bedrooms emphasizing cozy, inviting atmospheres. Ivanhoe Toast offers sophisticated neutral tones bridging warm and cool color schemes.
Select beds feature velvet upholstery for added luxury. Caramel Velvet provides rich, warm tones with the characteristic sheen and depth that makes velvet a perennial favorite for high-end bedroom furniture. While not performance fabric, velvet beds offer unmatched tactile luxury for bedrooms where visual impact and comfort take precedence.
The Keaton Daybed in Whiskey Brown features genuine top grain leather, the highest quality leather available for furniture. Top grain leather develops beautiful patina over time while providing exceptional durability and easy maintenance. The warm brown tones suit home offices, libraries, and sophisticated guest quarters.
Every bed frame utilizes solid oak wood for structural components including legs, trim, and support elements. Oak provides exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, resisting warping and damage over decades of use. The Natural Gray Oak finish adds contemporary appeal with cool undertones, while Matte Brown Oak offers warmer traditional character. Hand-applied finishes ensure depth and durability.
Rather than requiring box springs, these beds feature removable metal frame European slat systems. This construction provides even mattress support while allowing air circulation that extends mattress life. The slat system accommodates memory foam, hybrid, innerspring, and latex mattresses without compatibility concerns. The removable design simplifies moving and room reconfiguration.
Queen beds accommodate standard Queen mattresses measuring 60 inches wide by 80 inches long. Bed frame dimensions vary by collection but typically measure approximately 65 inches wide by 86 inches deep. Queen sizes suit couples in standard bedrooms or individuals preferring generous sleeping space. The proportions work well in rooms measuring 10 by 12 feet or larger.
King beds accommodate standard King mattresses measuring 76 inches wide by 80 inches long. Frame dimensions typically measure approximately 81-83 inches wide by 87 inches deep depending on collection. King beds suit larger master bedrooms, typically 12 by 14 feet or larger, providing ample space for couples plus pets or children who occasionally share sleeping quarters.
California King beds accommodate mattresses measuring 72 inches wide by 84 inches long. Frame dimensions typically measure approximately 77-79 inches wide by 91 inches deep. The California King configuration suits taller sleepers requiring extra length or narrower bedrooms where standard King width would feel cramped. This size remains popular in Western states where it originated.
Standard bed collections feature headboard heights of approximately 62 inches from floor to top, creating substantial visual presence without overwhelming standard 8-foot ceilings. Shelter-style headboards in the Tailor collection maintain similar heights while adding winged side elements. Footboard heights range from approximately 31 inches for subtle profiles to matched headboard heights on shelter designs.
Floor-to-slat-top measurements average approximately 10 inches, accommodating standard mattress thicknesses while maintaining comfortable seating height when combined with typical mattresses. Side rail floor-to-bottom clearance of approximately 1.25 inches prevents debris accumulation while maintaining stable, grounded appearance. These specifications ensure compatibility with robotic vacuums and easy cleaning access.
LiveSmart Peyton-Pearl upholstered beds anchor modern minimalist bedrooms with their clean lines and neutral tones. Pair Stewart or Balboa beds with simple nightstands, minimal artwork, and white or gray bedding for serene, clutter-free spaces. The Natural Gray Oak frames complement concrete, steel, and glass accents common in contemporary design. Let the bed serve as the primary focal point by keeping surrounding elements understated.
Tailor Shelter beds create commanding presence in transitional master suites where traditional elegance meets modern sensibility. The winged headboard provides visual anchor for layered bedding including Euro shams, decorative pillows, and textured throws. Matte Brown Oak trim coordinates with traditional wood furniture including dressers, armoires, and nightstands. Add table lamps with fabric shades and area rugs with subtle patterns to complete the transitional aesthetic.
Boucle Snow and Peyton-Pearl fabrics brighten coastal-inspired bedrooms where natural light and airy atmospheres take priority. Warren beds in Boucle Snow pair beautifully with blue and white accents, natural fiber rugs, and weathered wood accessories. The Natural Gray Oak finish suggests driftwood tones while providing durability unsuited to actual reclaimed materials. Layer white linens with subtle blue or green accents for complete coastal bedroom design.
Chandler beds in Caramel Velvet or Stewart beds in Stoneridge Amber create inviting retreats emphasizing warmth and comfort. These beds suit bedrooms with earth-toned color palettes, wood paneling, or fireplace features. Layer warm bedding in cream, rust, gold, and brown tones. Add ambient lighting through table lamps and sconces rather than harsh overhead fixtures. Textured throws and plush area rugs enhance the cozy atmosphere.
The Keaton Daybed transforms guest rooms into multi-functional spaces serving as both seating and sleeping areas. In home offices, the daybed provides comfortable seating for reading or contemplation while accommodating overnight guests. The leather option suits masculine or professional aesthetics while fabric versions brighten smaller spaces. Add accent pillows for daytime seating comfort and maintain quality linens accessible for guest use.
Build complete bedroom environments by coordinating bed selections with complementary nightstands, dressers, and accessories. Natural Gray Oak bed frames coordinate with oak-finished case goods while accepting contrast pieces in painted finishes or darker woods. Consider matching or complementary bedside tables, coordinating dresser mirrors, and accent chairs upholstered in similar or contrasting fabrics.
LiveSmart performance fabric makes these beds ideal for households where children and pets share living spaces. Parents appreciate knowing that spilled drinks, muddy paw prints, and everyday accidents wipe clean without permanent staining. The chemical-free fabric technology ensures safety for everyone in the household while maintaining the luxurious appearance that makes bedrooms feel like retreats rather than fortresses guarding against daily life.
Those who appreciate thoughtful design without sacrificing practicality find satisfaction in these collections. The beds balance aesthetic appeal with functional requirements, offering visual sophistication that doesn't demand constant maintenance or worry. Design-conscious buyers recognize the value of performance fabrics that look as refined as traditional upholstery while performing better in real-world conditions.
Hypoallergenic properties make LiveSmart fabrics appropriate for allergy sufferers who react to dust mites, pet dander, or fabric treatments. The breathable construction prevents moisture accumulation that harbors allergens while the stain-resistant surface allows frequent cleaning without fabric degradation. Those with chemical sensitivities appreciate the absence of harmful treatments common in conventional fabric protection.
Couples furnishing first homes or upgrading from starter furniture find these beds offer quality construction at accessible price points. The substantial materials and careful craftsmanship ensure beds serve for decades rather than requiring replacement within years. Starting with quality bedroom furniture establishes foundation for building beautiful homes over time.
Design professionals specify Essentials For Living beds for client projects requiring quality, durability, and aesthetic flexibility. The range of sizes, fabrics, and styles accommodates diverse project requirements while consistent quality ensures client satisfaction. Casa Bella Decor's Designer Trade Program offers special pricing and services for professionals furnishing residential and hospitality projects.
Homeowners preparing dedicated guest quarters choose these beds for their combination of comfort and durability. Guest rooms see intermittent but intensive use, requiring furniture that maintains appearance despite varying usage patterns. Performance fabrics ensure beds remain presentable regardless of guest habits while solid construction withstands occasional use without degradation.
For everyday maintenance, vacuum upholstered surfaces weekly using soft brush attachment to remove dust and debris. Address spills immediately by blotting excess liquid with clean, dry cloth. For most spills, the moisture-repellent finish causes liquids to bead on the surface, allowing simple removal with paper towel or cloth before penetration occurs.
For stubborn stains, prepare a cleaning solution combining one tablespoon of liquid detergent with sixteen ounces of lukewarm water. Dampen clean cloth in the mixture and gently blot the affected area without rubbing aggressively. Rinse the area with a clean, damp cloth to ensure complete soap residue removal. Allow fabric to air dry completely before use.
Velvet requires gentler handling than performance fabrics. Vacuum regularly using soft brush attachment, brushing in the direction of the nap. Address spills immediately by blotting with dry cloth; avoid rubbing which can damage velvet pile. Professional cleaning is recommended for significant stains. Keep velvet beds away from direct sunlight which can fade color over time.
Top grain leather on the Keaton Daybed benefits from regular dusting with soft, dry cloth. Apply leather conditioner every six to twelve months to maintain suppleness and prevent drying. Clean spills immediately with slightly damp cloth, then dry thoroughly. Avoid harsh cleaners, solvents, or excessive moisture which can damage leather finish.
Dust oak frames regularly with soft, lint-free cloth. For deeper cleaning, use slightly damp cloth followed by immediate drying. Avoid silicone-based polishes which create buildup over time. Position beds away from direct sunlight and heating sources to prevent finish fading and wood drying. Use furniture pads under any objects placed on wood surfaces.
Periodically check slat connections and tighten any loose hardware. Vacuum beneath slats during mattress rotation to remove accumulated dust. The metal frame components require no special maintenance beyond occasional dust removal. If moving the bed, disassemble the slat system and transport separately to prevent damage.
Rotate mattresses every three to six months to ensure even wear across the sleeping surface. The European slat system provides proper ventilation; avoid adding solid platforms beneath mattresses which trap moisture. Use mattress protectors for additional protection against spills and allergens. Most mattress warranties require proper support systems, which these beds provide.
