Inside the Funky Factory: How Funkybedz Designs Beds That Make Yorkshire Proud
Ey up! Pull up a chair, grab a brew, and get comfy — because today you’re getting a front-row VIP tour into the heart of Funkybedz. Aye, the very place where our bright sparks sketch designs, our Yorkshire grafter lads and lasses craft the frames, and where dreams (quite literally) take shape.
If you’ve ever wondered how one humble workshop in God’s Own County can produce some of the UK’s boldest, sassiest, most storage-packed beds, well… strap in. You’re about to find out.
The Funky Vision: Beds With a Bit of Oomph
Here at Funkybedz, we don’t do bland. Beige bores us. Basic beds send us to sleep — and not in a good way. We build beds that make you go “Ooh, that’s reyt nice” the second you clock them. Think plush fabrics, chunky storage, swoon-worthy silhouettes, and that signature Funky attitude that says you deserve something a bit special.
Our design crew spends hours (and we mean hours) studying fabric textures, trending colours, new mechanisms, and what real people in real British homes actually need. Tall wardrobes? No space? Too many shoes? Hundred cushions? We get it. That’s why many of our bestsellers — like the Ottoman beds you lot love — are built to swallow clutter like a hungry hippo.
From Sketch to Showstopper: How a Funkybed Is Born
It all starts with a doodle. A squiggle. A “what if we made the headboard even taller?” or “could we fit storage even in that bit?”
And because our team is a delightful mix of designers, upholsterers, engineers, and Yorkshire visionaries, those daft ideas usually turn into something class.
1. Designing Beds with Personality
You can spot a Funkybed from across a room. Why? Because we give our beds character. Whether it’s a dramatic wingback headboard, a plush crushed velvet finish, or a sleek minimalist frame for a modern space, every design has a reason for existing — and that reason is usually “make bedrooms look mint.”
2. Choosing Fabrics That Feel Fabulous
We're picky about fabrics — proper picky. We touch, stretch, rub, wrinkle, crumple, and sometimes even sit on whole rolls to check they’re worthy of your bedroom. Whether you love suede, velvet, linen, or hard-wearing polyester, it’s all about durability and that lush feel.
And with new trends landing every season, we’re always adding fresh swatches to our lineup. Keep an eye on our Funkybedz News section if you want first dibs.
3. Yorkshire Craftsmanship (Aye, Proper Stuff)
Once a design gets the Funky stamp of approval, it heads to the workshop — the beating heart of our operation. This is where raw wood, rolls of fabric, and clever mechanisms come together.
Our workshop team? They’re cracking. Every tufted button, every staple, every sanded corner is done by hands that care. You can’t fake skill like that — it comes from years in the trade.
And because we make many of our beds here in the UK, we keep standards tight. Nae flimsy frames. Nae hollow nonsense. Just proper Yorkshire quality.
Why We’ve Become a Yorkshire Household Name
We’re not trying to toot our own trumpet… but toot toot! Customers across the UK choose us because we mix style, durability, storage practicality, and down-to-earth service.
Here’s what makes Funkybedz stand out like a sequin jacket in a field of grey jumpers:
- We actually listen — You tell us what you need. We design around real homes and real problems.
- We focus on quality over everything — Solid frames, comfy finishes, and serious longevity.
- We offer options — Colours, fabrics, sizes, shapes… If you want it, we probably make it.
- We keep prices fair — Premium beds shouldn’t require selling a kidney.

Your Bed Is Built to Order — Not Dragged Out of a Warehouse
No shade to the big-box stores, but here’s something you should know…
Most beds out there? They’re pumped out by the thousands overseas and stacked in warehouses like crates of biscuits. But a Funkybed? Nah lad. Every one is freshly made, lovingly crafted, and tailored to your order.
Want a weird colour? We’ll sort you out. Need a king-size with extra storage? Done. Want a headboard tall enough to make a statement? We’ve got you.
Your bedroom is unique — so your bed should be too.
Delivery That Doesn’t Make You Want to Pull Your Hair Out
We know delivery can be the bane of online shopping — missed slots, heavy lifting, random time windows… nightmare stuff.
That’s why we do things reyt.
• We give you proper time slots.
• We handle your bed with care.
• Our team won't leave you stranded.
Plus, most of the UK gets quick delivery — because when you order something lush, waiting feels like torture.
Testing: Because We Don’t Want Your Bed to Betray You
Every Funkybed goes through testing that would make SAS training look tame. We jump on them, bash them, lift them, drop them, shake them about — all to make sure they can survive years of real-life use.
Kids jumping on it? Fine. Pets claiming it? We’ve seen worse. Midnight snacks in bed? You're only human.
Your Funkybed is built to last. Long after other beds start squeaking or sagging, yours will still be holding strong — like a loyal Yorkshire mate who sticks with you through thick and thin.
The Future: Big, Bold, and Properly Funky
We’re not slowing down. In fact, the Funkybedz steam train is going full speed ahead. In the next year, you’ll see us launch:
- New luxury fabrics
- Extra-tall headboard collections
- Customisable storage layouts
- Hybrid tech-integrated bed frames (aye, seriously!)
And because we love keeping our community in the loop, you’ll see every new launch first right here in our Funkybedz News hub.
