You may be trying to match other furniture and décor in the room or looking to redecorate, but either way, you’ll want to define a theme that is evident in your bedroom. Not to be confused with design (the structure) the style determines the look of the bed. For example, a sleigh bed is a type of design, but did you know that not all sleigh beds look traditional? There are dozens of styles to choose from:
Contemporary and modern beds incorporate trending materials and shapes, like metal or straight lines, to create a look that trades tradition for in-the-moment.
Often seen on: Platform beds
Industrial style beds are part of a similar movement, channeling the factory atmosphere through a raw materials and an urban look.
Often seen on: Wrought Iron beds
Scandinavian beds have become increasingly popular, thanks for IKEA, and are easily identifiable by their simple, functional design.
Often seen on: Storage beds
Traditional beds are picturesque displays of conventional beds, with all of the warmth and familiarity of a chair by the fire.
Often seen on: Low-post beds
Vintage and antique beds, likewise, purposefully cultivate the feel of days gone by and usually reflect a specific era in history.
Often seen on: Four-poster beds
Romantic beds feature embellishments like canopies, embroidery, and hand carvings, adding charm, beauty, and whimsy to the room.
Often seen on: Tester or Canopy Beds
