You might not hear much about sleeping porches with modern-day heating and cooling, but they were very common in the early to mid-20th century. Will a porch swing bed revive the sleeping porch?
Cottage style Porch swing bed by PorchCo.
While we do not know if you will be spending the night on your porch, The Porch Company offers a vehicle for at least a catnap. Ergo the porch swing bed. This new porch staple furnishes gorgeous style, and many uses for taking in fresh air. You could read on a porch swing bed. Watch TV, even. Perhaps meditate. Bed swings as beautiful as those offered by PorchCo are definitely worthy of enjoyment with your eyes open!
Rustic chestnut bed swing by PorchCo
Rustic circle saw pattern and chestnut stain make a great pair!
Our rustic chestnut porch swing bed is the perfect addition to any porch design. The circle sawn finish offers a beautiful pattern on the solid pine wood framing. We use this technique on many of our outdoor fireplace mantels, as well. Even though the surface looks rough-hewn, the finish that we apply to the wood means that no splinters will be involved with the use of our custom bed swings. The chestnut finish is created with a custom stain, applied by us!
What are our porch swing beds made of?
It’s a swing, it’s a bed – it’s both!
The PorchCo’s porch bed swings are constructed of solid wood and steel framing, which makes for a sturdy and lightweight porch swing. You can choose your metal color and wood finish to create your ideal swing. The backs of our swing beds are adjustable, so they may be used like a swing or a bed. Each bed accommodates a 6” thick twin-size mattress (not included) perfectly. Here, you will see a close-up of the custom bed frame and the rope attachment. Notice how dynamic the circle sawn finish is, even on the smallest elements of the wood.
Our Cottage bed swing design is the most popular style we offer!
Black steel and finished wood framing.
