When you're looking to change your bedroom decor one of the best strategies is to start at the core of the room - your bed. Purchasing a brand new platform bed would be a good way to set the tone for all the support furniture and trimming out the rest of the room. If you pick wood platform beds you will then want to keep the tone warm and inviting. If you pick metal platform beds there are many directions you can go in depending on finishes, colors and styles.

Why Platform Beds?

You will find platform bed models made of wood or metal gracing the most expensive bedroom designs as well as the most budget minded designs.

* Platform beds fit into just about any decor
* There are an infinite number of ways to dress up a platform bed
* You can easily update your platform bedding to reflect a change in the surrounding decor
* You could implement either a warm wood tone or a stylish metal platform bed frame

What is a Platform Bed?

Simply, platform beds are beds made to accommodate just a mattress and typically use either a slatted or solid foundation beneath the mattress. They use no boxsprings or foundation units. Made popular in both Europe & Asia, they can be as traditional looking in an arts & craft design made popular in mission furniture or they can be sleek and contemporary with modern finishes and designs. No matter what styling preference you have, many manufacturers make platform beds in a variety of styles and finish to fit any decor.
