Few furnishing items divide opinion in the interior designer world as headboards do. There is no middle ground here. Either people love to have them as part of their bedroom decor, or they don’t. Consider this queen wooden headboard, for instance. It features a padded leather back and intricate floral designs. Some may say this is a bit ostentatious for their taste, and others may be instantly impressed with its statement style. But let’s dive into what makes the difference between one person’s preference and another. Along the way, you might learn more about your own view!
Further, since bedposts elicit strong reactions, we found an expert take on this unique furnishing item.
What Experts Say
Before we give our expert take, let us hear what another expert has to say about bedposts. Nancy Barnett, founder of Nancy Lane Interiors, has shared her opinion online, “As a designer, I prefer to use a headboard when designing a bedroom space—not only for aesthetic purposes but for functionality and added comfort.”
She makes an interesting point about the functionality and comfort of bedposts. Take this velvet tufted headboard, for instance. It features stain-resistant fabric and dense padding: Ideal for long reading sessions or watching your favorite Netflix series in bed.
Since a bedpost can enhance the functionality of your bedroom, our take is that it adds value to your innermost space. Even if you keep the functionality factor aside, the style alone warrants a place for the bedpost in your bedroom. According to this blog by The Spruce, the reason bedposts are common is that they offer practical solutions for your bedroom with a touch of style. We could not agree more. Consider this woven rattan headboard, for instance. It features a beautiful cane pattern with window pane details. The style fuses mid-century modern with a tropical touch.
What If Bed Posts Are Not Your Style?
Our personal recommendation is to have a bedpost frame your bed.
A bedpost may not suit your personal style, or the vibe you wish to create in your bedroom. You may think of this unique furnishing item as an excess, especially if you prefer a more simple, no-frills style. No need to worry. Nancy Barnett says, “For clients with a minimalist aesthetic or space limitations, we might opt for no headboard…”
There are alternatives to a bedpost. You can hang an artwork or installation on the wall, or use a wallpaper cutout to frame your bed.
