In this renovation video, I show how to make a DIY modern platform bed with surround cabinets, LED lighting, and a live edge slab headboard. The platform bed and cabinets are made from 10 sheets of maple plywood, and I added a live edge slab headboard. I used LED strips and acrylic diffusers to create overhead reading lights that are controlled by touch panel on the side of the bed. This modern platform bed turned out to be a huge project, but the woodworking techniques used are all fairly basic. This is my dream bed setup, and I hope you all can learn a few things from the process and mistakes I had to work through along the way.
