An e-mail from Jimmy: I am 30 and am trying to transition my place from college/late-twenties-party pad to contemporary, modern, classy pad. I want it to be very SEXY! I'm buying a Tempur-Pedic king sized mattress and I've been looking for the perfect low profile frame to sit it in.
I want something that has hidden compartments/drawers. Some very dim lighting built it would be cool but is not mandatory. I want my place to be cool and not cheesy. Can you help?

Hey Jimmy, we came across this piece that will keep your pad swank and stylish. We love the dark wood, architectural, clean-lines of this platform bed ($595 for the queen, but King size is available) from Plummers. We also like the small cubby detail in the headboard.
C'mon you sexy AT:LA readers, I'm sure some of you have other suggestions too- can you help our bachelor Jimmy out?

I would recommed the Lucca bed which isn't inexpensive but I saved for a year and feel it was worth it. I bought from overstock.com w/ free shipping. It has a lot of storage and we have disassembled and moved a couple times without problem. Also because of the solid headboard it could even be a room divider. I'd also look on craigs as someone might be getting rid of an old waterbed base which might also work. I've converted one to a regular bed and it is great. Good luck.
