Thought you might like to look at the one below. It's contemporary and the lower legs accommodate the pillow mattress and yet he'll still have a wonderfully comfy headboard that he can lean against. We have one like it in fabric and it's wonderful. Here is a link that might be useful: bed and headboard

"Lukk, care to share what's really going on with you? You know someone in law enforcement? You think they walk on water? Sorry, they're human like the rest of us. They make mistakes like the rest of us. I saw 2 videos of Alton Sterling's murder. One was a brutal close up. I didn't hear any "exploiting news reports" ... and I have many questions." Cindy, I don't know anyone in law enforcement and have actually had both good and bad experiences, certainly a lot more good than bad, but all the same. What I have a problem with is that everyone is so angry and committed to the idea that the officers shot those men with racial and murderous intent when we really don't know that. I also feel very strongly that the guns were a big contributing factor. Everyone is so focused on race, that they aren't even considering that. I remember back in the early 90's I once got pulled over for speeding by a Sheriff's Deputy. My purse was in the trunk of my car so I pulled over, unlocked the trunk and got out to get my purse. My back was to him as I reached into the trunk and the next thing I know the deputy who was standing behind his car door, had his gun drawn on me and was yelling for me to stand back from the car. All I was doing was getting my license and to see him yelling and pointing a gun at me like that was shocking, but later he explained how they never know who's in the car and always prepare for the worst case scenario. That experience and our conversation afterwards has always stuck with me. Sure the videos show what happened from one angle but they really don't tell the whole story. To have many questions is a fair response; to say they are murderers and bigots isn't. The news media exploits all stories like this because that's how they get their $$ you know as well as I do that they report misinformation all the time. On the kitchen forum there is a post about how reporters use so many adjectives in their stories that it often creates biases (in almost a subliminal way maybe?). I found it to be an interesting take. Here's the link if you're interested: http://ths.gardenweb.com/discussions/4017120/think-on-this?n=25

White windows are 1000 times more difficult to work with in terms of designing exterior color palettes than any other option. Because everybody thinks "white goes with everything". It doesn't. So not only do I have to deal with extremely limiting white windows I also have to have a 20 minute conversation about the fact that the white windows that the client chose because "they go with everything" do not go with everything -- and why. Only reason beige is a little bit easier is because it's obvious to most people that the options for color schemes is going to be limited so there's not a whole lot to talk about. Black is better than white or beige but it too can be limiting - black windows basically will define the entire vibe of the house. Bronze I can pull many different ways. I can pull it to work with a slate bluish-gray roof, I can pull it to work with a warmish driftwood gray roof, I can pull it to work with a brown or rusty orange roof. Classic, traditional, cottage-y, craftsman, modern, etc. Everyone should buy bronze windows. This is my house circa 1994. Bronze windows.

'In the vast majority of times, consumers simply don't know what they don't know. For example, how many "help me with my plan" postings do we see on this forum, without any information about the actual building site? Architects know, from experience, that most strong residential designs begin with a site analysis and plan, and that the building site is a strong ingredient in initial design concepts. Many consumers don't have a clue about this. Time after time we see postings here from consumers saying, "I've just been playing around with these plans for XX years, so that I have something to show the architect about what I'm thinking and what I like..." In the majority of cases, the consumer thinking and experience is so limited and narrow that, as RES said, it's simply a waste of time and money to spend any time at all with the consumer's plans. Really.' SERIOUSLY!!!!!!!!!??????????? The front of the house has to face the front road where they are unless it's really weird where they live. IF they already own the property, they would have probably already had the Master bedroom facing the best views from the back of the house. Bottom line, they probably have lived in a house for years and have learned what they like and don't like. You don't know the consumer and they don't know you. The consumer has put ALLOT of time making the plans they 'think' they want. You DON"T live their lives. That's why I said to IMPROVE their plans. As a business man, I would think this would would eliminate allot of time that you would 'charge' the client for this info that I'm sure you DON'T want to eliminate profit. I'm all for architects but they need to get in the 'real' world today. You're not selling used cars...............
